360 degree images are getting more popular, is there plans to add a possibility to embed them via the Embed Local Media icon in the editor?

(Well you can add them now already, but they are displayed as normal images, stretched out.)

This could probably be done as a module that would include the script(s) to process and show the 360 degree image.
Have just searched and there does seem to be suitable scripts available but as Jamroom is actively moving away from third party scripts (they invariably cause support issues down the road), this would need to be a custom module.

Having the ability to add 360 images to image galleries would also be nice.

Currently there is no way to display them with Jamroom, so using them means sending users to other websites :(.

Are these a special type of image? I would need to get an example image so I could check it out and see if it is supportable.

For example here
https://www.facebook.com/Paintball.fi/photos/rpp.245931575429925/2498227836866943/?type=3&theater
Facebook has allowed 360 photos (and some 3D photos also) for some time now.
If uploaded now 360 photo will be displayed as "flat" two dimensional in Jamroom.

There's a stackoveflow question on how to do it here:

StackOverflow: "Recognizing and displaying 360 degree images in HTML"
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41437086/recognizing-and-displaying-360-degree-images-in-html

It does not outline how to detect that an image is a 360 degree image though.

I made a custom module uses Pannellum to show 360 degree panaromic images. It can show partial panaromas too. I needed to use another lightbox plugin to work with pannellum for this custom module. And i think there is a 4096px OpenGL limitation for mobile devices (whatever the hell it is) so you need to resize yor images or add a line to jrImage module for it (maybe Brian add that size for this in the future) I am not saying it was easy to make it work but it is possible. Pannellum working enough for me, but i think there are more easy and better ways to do it for someone who knows what to do :)
