Comment on Ask HN: How to Build Your Own (Mini) Google Street View?

Comments

It's crazy how much hardware has improved since streetview was launched.

Buy an Insta 360, mount it to a car with a selfie stick. Drive around, set the camera to take a snapshot once a second. Dump images to S3, extract exif to DB, display on top of an open streets map.

You'll have to navigate using clicking on a map. With a bit of extra work, create a linked list of the images, then display buttons on each image for prev/next.
