Surfaces allow you to add 2D interfaces in 3D space, letting you work in pixels instead of physical dimensions. Currently there are two different shapes of Surfaces supported by React 360: Cylinder and Flat.

A Cylinder Surface takes your 2D content and projects it onto the inside of a cylinder with a 4 meter radius. A cylinder is great for displaying 2D content, because no matter which way you turn, you are always looking at the content straight-on.

In this lesson we are going to learn how to create a Cylinder Surface spanning the 360 degree view and how to attach a React 360 component to it.
