One
shot panoramic photography just became
an
open and shut case.
Imagine
capturing a complete 360° image in a single snapshot, then
publishing an interactive panorama on the web in minutes. 360
One VR® makes this concept a reality. With single-shot technology
that requires no stitching, photographing action scenes like busy
city streets or sporting events is a breeze. A single click effortlessly
captures a complete panoramic view. In fact, it's so easy you
can publish hundreds of panoramas in an afternoon. Whether it's
photojournalism, industrial documentation or real estate virtual
tours, 360 One VR offers a simple and elegant solution for panoramic
photography.
The 360 One VR consists of a rugged optical reflector assembly
that attaches to most digital cameras and a companion software
application for Windows and Macintosh called PhotoWarp. Here's
how it works…
Your camera points up through the center of the optic and photographs
the entire scene as reflected on the patented OptiFOV™ mirror.
Once the round-shaped images are transferred to your computer,
PhotoWarp quickly unwarps them into panoramas.
The 360 One VR optic has an integrated sliding protective cover
which quickly retracts or extends for use or transport. The telescope-grade
mirror and glass center stage are cushion mounted and the entire
unit is protected with an impactresistant foam outer covering.
The lightweight sunshield above the mirror incorporates a target
ring allowing PhotoWarp to automatically center the 'donut' images,
a crucial feature for batch processing. A circular bubble level
for easy leveling is located on top of the sunshield.
The optic has a standard 67 mm photographic thread at its mounting
base which fits a variety of cameras and lenses. Standard photographic
step ring adapters or extension tubes, available at most camera
stores, can be used to connect the optic to many cameras. Camera
attachment brackets and quickrelease camera mounts are also available.
Traditional single-shot unwarping software requires you to go
through several tedious steps to process just one panorama. With
PhotoWarp, just drag a collection of image files onto the application
and click "Unwarp." PhotoWarp processes all the images
as a batch, in just seconds apiece!
PhotoWarp supports a broad range of panoramic viewers, giving
you the choice to deliver your images the way you want. QuickTime®
VR, Java, flat images for printing, and even Flash panoramas can
be produced. PhotoWarp will generate a web page that will automatically
choose the right format for any user, computer or browser.
Already using a BeHere, Egg Solution, Remote Reality or 0-360
optic? Upgrade to the 360 One VR and PhotoWarp can even process
your old donut images, often with less distortion than your old
software. And unlike some other solutions, we never charge per-image
'click' fees or yearly license fees to use our software. Use it
as much as you like!
The best one shot panorama solution?... With 360 One VR, it's
an open and shut case!
