We are planning to create Google Cardboard experience for Google StreetView. Google has exposed Google Streetview API to fetch images based on the location and angle. If I use this API, I need to stitch the images based on the User head movement. User can watch the object in 360 degree horizontally and 180 degree vertically. How do I implement this based on the StreetView API and How often I need to make the request and what is the best way to combine the images. Is there is any way we can use the "com.google.android.gms.maps.StreetViewPanoramaView" directly inside the com.google.vrtoolkit.cardboard.CardboardView ?.. Thanks in Advance..

All use of Google Street View Publish API is free of charge.
The Street View Static API embeds a static (non-interactive) Street View panorama or thumbnail into a web page without the use of JavaScript. Define the viewport with URL parameters sent through a standard HTTP request. The request returns a static image.
Nice idea and good luck with that. However for your question you can use any panorama stitching library to stitch all the images together and create a view. Following is a popular library but I afraid its paid.
