Gear 360 File Access & Stitche 5.9

This solution offers a way to access camera images and videos on the Samsung Gear 360 (2017 version) camera. Due to the official Samsung app's incompatibility with Android 11, this workaround provides a method to continue utilizing the Gear 360 with Android mobile phones.

• This application mandates:
  1. Installation of the HTTP server on the camera.
  2. Operation of the camera in Street View (OSC) mode.

For detailed instructions on installation and connection, refer to my GitHub repository at: Gear 360 File Access from Android Phones. The HTTP server on the camera serves files in OSC (Streetview mode), allowing the Android application to access and copy them to the phone.

Moreover, this application provides image and video stitching to photosphere (360 panorama) format upon user request through the STITCH function. Post-stitching, metadata is injected into the jpg and mp4 files for easy identification as 360-degree panoramas.

All images and videos copied from the camera are stored in the Gear360 folder on the phone's external storage. In case of stitch function usage, the resulting files are saved within the same directory.

It's worth noting that video stitching can be quite time-consuming.
