A method of stereoscopic panoramic image capture of a virtual environment comprises the steps of pausing the state of a virtual environment being implemented by an application, and for each of a plurality of positions in the virtual environment, rendering in turn plural images collectively encompassing a panoramic view, capturing in turn each of the plural rendered images and capturing distance data describing the distance between a respective position in the virtual environment and surfaces in the virtual environment visible at that respective position; wherein the plural positions in the virtual environment form vertices of a bounding space within which left and right viewpoints of a stereoscopic image can be formed. |
