This essay is part of an ongoing research entitled “The 360º immersive: investigation, representation and digital immersion of Rio de Janeiro city during 19th and 20th centuries”, developed in Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro / Programa de Pós-Gradução em Urbanismo, Brazil, which presents, analyses and discuss in a theoretical-conceptual approach The Panorama of Rio de Janeiro, by Victor Meirelles and Henri Langerock by the Unity Game Engine. To achieve this 360º immersion experience a methodological path was developed: restitution of the Panorama and its visualization in real time; the transition from the Lumion model to the Unity Game Engine; resizing the model scale; the immersive experience beyond the observation platform: the faux-terrain experienced; viewer movement, scenes, scripts, and navigation menus.
