The compact <group> of real seven-by-seven <orthogonal matrices> with <determinant> one. Its <Lie algebra> has <B3 root system>. Its simply connected double cover is the <Spin group> $\operatorname{Spin}(7)$; the eight-dimensional <spin representation> belongs to that cover and does not descend to <SO(7)>.
