Thread:
IPIX and interactive panoramas
Re: IPIX and interactive panoramas

Hi,
If I understand correctly: IPIX patent claims, any geometric remapping of a fisheye image is their invention... doesn't matter full pano made up of 2 or 3 or 6 fisheye-images and doesn't matter what type of geometric remapping system being used to construction a panorama.
Is that right? angry

So, if I want to use fisheye lens, and taking 6 drum images and stitch them with legal version software to create a panorama... iPIX will come after me??!!

What can we do now?

Hi,
I'd like to create full screen mov file with HOTSPOTS... if it is possible. I don't know how can I insert hotspots into qtime movie file?
So far I did some test and create full-screen panos with pull-down menu, but it would be nicer use hotspots...
Do you know how to add codes for hootspots?

THANKS!

Did you guys see that 3D-object movies of the Detroit Autoshow:
autoshow.msn.com/as/video.aspx?xml=surround&shw=a...

How can I do something like that?
I know how can I make simple object 3d... rotate the object by approx 10-15 degrees, stop than shoot... and again.
But on the show the cars never stop, and no angle measurements to shoot, so must be a special camera or a nice technique...
Any comments?

Helo,
I'd like to use Realviz to stitch my images, but I don't know how can I prepare (de-fish) them before stitching? So the RealViz will be able to use them.
I shoot: 6 zoom-max, cropped (drum like) images with CP5400, FC-E9. Finally, I got them sharp enough and by using the drum images I have max pixels.
Is there any way to do that with a Windows software?
Thanks,

Hi,
Is there any way to connect a camera (CP5400) to a laptop, so I could see the image on the screen instead of the camera's monitor?
Thank,

Somebody please could you help me analyze my test-shoots.
I'm getting confused here...

I use CP5400, FC-E9 and I try to make "sharp" image as possible with this set. I know, the FC-E9 is a soft lens, that is why I try different ways.
First, I was under that impression, that I should use smallest aperture to maximize the depth of view, focus, so I set f7.9 (max.)
But on other forum I found that information: "you should avoid a small aperture with the FC-E9... because of the diffraction starts to become an issue..." Which is right too!
So, now what would be the sweet spot setting for FC-E9?

Also, what would be better, if I use the Fish-eye setting in the camera and shoot full circle images, it is only partial of the screen, or zoom max to vertical (like a drum image) and fill more area, get more pixels? Shoot 6 cropped, instead of 3 full circle?

Here is my test-shoots:

1.
I used the FC-E9, but I set my camera "normal lens", able to zoom max. F7.9 (maximum):

2.
Same above, but F3.5 (minimum):

3.
I used the fish-eye setting on my camera, F7.9 max):

on s129767937.onlinehome.us/private/Img0015/

4.
Same above, F2.8 (min):

Hi,
Could you someone help me to find "the best" 3D Object viewer solution. I mean, what would be the best viewer (java, flash, activex...)? minimal download or install for a viewer!
I found one at www.360dof.com - called 360.3d - but it's expensive!
Thanks, Mekkelek

Hi,
Yes, I like it! Very good idea...
Maybe the only problem, many Internet user disabled the flash as default (security issues).
Anyway, can I test it with my pano, I mean how can I have one?

Hello,
I'm a beginner and playing with CP5400 + FC-E9 to make panos. I like the 3 shoots, but maybe that is the problem.
I can not get a SHARP panorama.
Could you tell me someone, how can I make sharper image with my set?
(I used: Mode-A,fish-eye set,iso100,image size max,F7.9max,WB manual set,sharpening max, image quality fine and I tried RAW...)

Here is my original 3 pic.
