The sky primitive adds a background to a scene or display a 360-degree photo. It is an entity that prescribes a large sphere with the material mapped to the inside.
Example
An equirectangular image as a background:
<a-sky src="sky.png"></a-sky> |
A plain color as a background:
<a-sky color="#6EBAA7"></a-sky> |
Attributes
Note that the sky primitive inherits common mesh attributes.
Attribute | Component Mapping | Default Value |
---|---|---|
radius | geometry.radius | 5000 |
segments-height | geometry.segmentsHeight | 64 |
segments-width | geometry.segmentsWidth | 64 |
Equirectangular Image
In order to be seamless, images should be equirectangular. We can find some sample equirectangular images on Flickr. To take an equirectangular photo, check out this 360-degree photography guide.
