[Q] Developer help needed - General Questions and Answers

Hey everyone. What a great site, and sorry if this isn't in the correct section, but I do need help with a program so here I am.
My idea or concept is to have a program that is not Java based that is Smart phone friendly (since iPhones aren't Java friendly) via a QR Code launch open a Panoramic 360 image. Via Gyro control, or finger mouse action in a seamless photo to see the hosted image. iTunes has a few capturing programs out there already, but unless you have purchased that program you can only view the image in a flat format. So what I am looking for is someone that can design a program that can take the flat images or captured 360, and stitch them together into a single 360 viewable image.
Below is a YouTube link of a program capturing the image.
Thanks for any help or insight.

[Q] reading part of live video from camera

we have an idea for a very useful android/mobile application. this application would read a portion of live video captured from the camera. once the portion of the video is read/recognized, it would perform an action based on what it saw/read. does anyone have any direction on components available to pick apart the video? it would need to look for a shape / pattern in the video and extract it.
thanks in advance.

360 camera -- how to share fotos

when i text pics taken with the 360 camera, it looks like a salvatore dali drawing on the recipients cellular-telefone or pc.
and they are unable to drag the field of view around. however videos work in vlc (but not mplayer/kodi).
is there a viewer that is able to view these pictures as intended.
also i put some pics on my webserver but firefox doesnt display them correctly. is there a webserver that can render them on a website ? (pannellum and photo-sphere-viewer seem to only work with panoramas).
these pics seem not to be able to be viewed without the essential 360-camera app. i'm the only one of my family/friends with an essential.
They display fine for me with Google photos and can be seen correct through Google photos for anyone they are shared with.

maybe my lineage-os install is interfering somehow ?

360 Cam photos and videos... how to post them for all to see???

The 360 camera add-on to the PH-1 is super easy to use and takes really good 360 photos but.... I am taking some 360 photos (and videos) of my house that I am selling and want to know the best way to get them out there on the web for everyone to see what I have for sale.
What is the best way to share them?
Essential has this informtion:
https://support.essential.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015527068-Sharing-360-content-on-social-media
But not sure if this will really help with posting photos for selling my house...
The 360 content works anywhere that already supports 360 images. The image saved is just a flat image of all directions. The metadata attached to the file tells viewers how to render the image.
When I share, I usually just share the web link from Google Photos. That works in Chrome for desktop and mobile as well as the app. But for real estate, you'll probably be uploading it to their platform instead. In which case, you have to see if they support that kind of content.

Converting/Assembling Samsung's Motion Photos from Apple's Live Photos (or any photo and video file)

Hi all, this is my first post here so please be gentle
I recently upgraded to a Galaxy A52 and have been compiling all of my photo collections onto said device. Motion photos (originally taken on an S9, then stored on an A3 2017) worked perfectly fine, and now I'm trying to figure out if I can get Live Photos transferred from my iPhone SE 1st gen and converted into Samsung's Motion Photo format.
I've searched and tried experimenting for hours, but I haven't found any evidence of someone successfully making a native Motion Photo. If anyone has heard of such a tool, I would love to know.
I did find tools to extract them (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-motion-photo-extractor.3339997/), as well as some details about the file specs (https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism/issues/439).
A basic technical summary for Samsung's Motion Photos is that there is an mp4 file embedded into the jpeg metadata as binary data.
I tried my hand at making such a tool for converting Live Photos to Motion Photos on my own, using ffmpeg and exiftool. This is the flow I attempted:
1. Use Google Photos to backup Live Photos from my iPhone
2. Download them on my computer, which will give me .jpg and corresponding .mov files
3. use ffmpeg to convert and remux .mov file into correct container and codec
4. use exiftool to merge video file into jpeg file
5. copy to new Samsung phone
Unfortunately, I got stuck on the 4th step in writing the exif tags. the tags that Samsung uses are non-standard, and I couldn't find any clear resources on how I could set up an exiftool config file to do so.
I also tried downloading directly from Google Photos on my destination device, but the downloaded files are not visible outside of the Google Photos app so I cannot examine them or use them with any app other than Google Photos. I tried on a rooted emulator, and I could only find the photo portion of the file (corresponding video was not embedded and nowhere to be found). Even if this did work, it would not be a practical method as from the Google Photos app photos must be downloaded individually (no bulk option)
I've mostly given up on this and am not particularly seeking advice, rather I thought I'd share my findings and attempts as there doesn't seem to be much information for converting Live Photos to Motion Photos. Of course, if someone does know how to properly set up exiftool to write the correct tags into the image file, I will be happy to share the batch script I make to convert my collection.
--edit--
just for reference, I created this https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=12388.0 corresponding post in the exiftool forums, so if someone finds this in the future trying to attempt the same or similar thing, maybe there will be helpful replies there.

Does not seem to work this way.
I found a solution to "transfer" live photos from sn Apple to motion photo on a Samsung app:

But this does not work the other way round.
