The Samsung Galaxy S4 could be used to debut some new camera technology by the Korean firm, which is currently being dubbed as Samsung Orb.
According to AndroidGeeks Samsung is working on a camera feature which will be very similar to the Photo Sphere mode currently found in the stock Android 4.2 Jelly Bean application.
The information apparently comes via a Samsung engineer who is working on the Galaxy S4, although we're not able to confirm the authenticity of this claim.
It looks like there won't be too much difference between Samsung Orb and Photo Sphere, with the Korean firm's offering allowing you to take a 360 degree panorama to give you an almost 3D image.
360 and share
The slight difference seems to be with the sharing options, with Samsung apparently in talks with Facebook to allow Galaxy S4 users to easily share their 360 creations on the social network.
Unsurprisingly the engineer has talked up the Samsung Orb, saying it will offer a better result than Google's Photo Sphere, partly thanks to the superior camera the Galaxy S4 will sport - although we're not taking anything for granted just yet.
Rumours currently point towards the Samsung Galaxy S4 packing a 13MP snapper, putting it on par with the recently announced Sony Xperia Z.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 is expected to be unveiled towards the end of March, with the handset landing in stores in April/May this year.
