About The Prizes

VTour : VTour creates photo-realistic 3D Virtual tours of existing environments from a single photo or a panorama. VTour is an "Environment Creator", which means that the scene to create is around you. With VTour, you start from a single image or single panorama. 2D to 3D calibration is performed using a perspective feature (X, Y, Z coordinates) to be located in the input picture. Modeling and Texturing are based on the same simple and intuitive tool set as the one used in REALVIZ ImageModeler. Outputs can be of different forms: either a rendered 3D animation (video), interactive 3D or export to Google Earth.

Stitcher Pro targets professional photographers & graphic artists looking for the most automatic and efficient way to create professional-quality, high-resolution panoramas. With its 16 bits rendering engine and its full interoperability with Photoshop, Stitcher Pro is a must have tool for every photographer who want to print their panoramas as posters, or to enter the business of interactive virtual tours.

Stitcher Express 2 is aimed at digital photography hobbyists looking to obtain the best-possible image quality for their panoramas, combined with the ease of use of an automatic engine. With Stitcher Express, you can stitch any number of pictures to create up to a full spherical panorama, and print it or view it as an interactive Quick Time VR, and even georeference it in Google Earth !
