Photograph of 195 gigapixels shows the faces of people walking on the streets

The Chinese website Big Pixel, famous for posting photos at high resolutions, has made available a 360-degree photo of the city of Shanghai that has no less than 195 gigapixels of resolution. Today, on average, cell phones have 12 megapixel cameras. Only 1 gigapixel equals 1000 megapixels. The photo was taken from above the Oriental Pearl Tower, which gives us a panoramic view of the city in all directions. It is possible to zoom and observe people in the streets, cars, buses, boats, etc. In the example below, you can see the zoom of a building entrance, and there is a man standing on his cell phone. It truly is amazing the wealth of detail!

To view the photo, you must go to the official page clicking here. Surely, you and your friends will spend a lot of time exploring the image. The 195 gigapixel photo is famous all over the world. If the site is slow, it must be due to the number of hits. Try to come back another time. The technology used in this gigantic photo is to take several shots of a scene with smaller resolutions, and put them together, giving an effect as if the 195-gigapixel photo had been taken only once. So if you see duplicate people in a scene, it's because these people have moved between clicks. The BGR staff has warned of the ways in which technology can be used. Have you ever thought about being in your house and a person in another neighborhood, to know how many spoons of sugar you put in your coffee?
