CubicNavigator is a browser for VR panoramas. It can retrieve many popular VR formats from the web or your hard drive and display them using hardware accelerated OpenGL for viewing in a window or fullscreen.

Where it is unable to display a VR, or you choose to change the view, CubicNavigator will display a standard web page which instead uses the QuickTime plugin or a Java applet to display the panorama. You can toggle these ways of viewing the same VR material.

Limitations:
30 day trial.

What's New:
adds additional "kiosk mode" features to the slideshow settings,
better detects web pages which have been changed to work around the Eolas vs Microsoft patent dispute for embedded content
stores aliases inside bookmarks of local (hard drive) files so the files can be moved without losing track of their location.

Requirements:
Mac OS X 10.3 Panther or later
Reasonably recent graphics card, eg, ATI Rage 128 Pro (year 2) or better, with 16MB of Video RAM or higher (32MB+ recommended if your card supports Quartz Extreme).
