## What it is
A Swift library for iOS that displays spherical (360) or cylindrical panoramas using SceneKit, with touch or motion-based controls. It automatically detects panorama type from image aspect ratio and supports both Swift and Objective-C.

## Use cases
- display 360 photos in an iOS app
- show equirectangular panorama images with touch controls
- view cylindrical panoramas using gyroscope motion
- embed an interactive panorama viewer in a real estate app
- render spherical panoramas with SceneKit

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight native iOS panorama viewer
- your images are full equirectangular or cylindrical panoramas
- you want touch or motion-based camera controls out of the box

## When to avoid
- you need partial panoramas with less than 360 degree field of view
- you need cubic-format panorama support
- you are targeting platforms other than iOS
