Abstract

Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for improving a display of panoramic video data by including an angle indicator as a visual representation of a direction of a displayed portion of the panoramic video data relative to a reference location. For example, the angle indicator may illustrate an angle of the displayed portion of the video data relative to a front of the video capture device, using 360 degrees, and the user of the device may specify a desired angle and/or desired portion of the video data to display. In addition, the device may generate video tags including angle information based on the user input. For example, the device may determine the desired angle and/or desired portion of the video data to display and may generate a video tag associating the angle with a timestamp and/or video frame.
