Provide Advanced Panorama Creation and Image-based 3D Modeling Capabilities
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11, 2008 — Today at SIGGRAPH 2008, Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADSK) announced Autodesk Stitcher Unlimited 2009 and Autodesk ImageModeler 2009 software products. These are the first versions of the former REALVIZ products to be released as part of the Autodesk product portfolio. Both products are being showcased at SIGGRAPH 2008 in Los Angeles, California, August 12-14 at Autodesk booth #501.
“ImageModeler and Stitcher make 3D technology more accessible,” said modélisation 3D à partir d’images 2D
LOS ANGELES, 20 août 2008 — Autodesk, Inc. (NASDAQ : ADSK) a annoncé la sortie des logiciels Autodesk Stitcher Unlimited 2009 et Autodesk ImageModeler 2009. Il s’agit des premières versions des anciens produits REALVIZ à être distribuées en tant que produits Autodesk. Les deux produits ont été présentés au SIGGRAPH 2008 de Los Angeles.
“ImageModeler et Stitcher facilitent l’accès à la technologie 3D », déclare Marc Petit, Autodesk Media & Entertainment’s senior vice president. “They enable the creation of 3D models from simple 2D images, and dynamic virtual environments from conventional photographs. These products are used on many types of projects – from architecture and photography to film and game development."
Stitcher Unlimited 2009 helps create wide-angle and panoramic images in a few easy steps. With an intuitive user interface and an automatic photo-merging engine, the software is ideal for generating virtual tours for the Web, matte paintings for movies, environment maps for 3D rendering and panoramic prints for artistic display.
ImageModeler 2009 offers a new approach to 3D modeling: generating 3D models from 2D digital images.
The software’s easy-to-learn, three-step workflow of calibration, modeling and texturing lets users achieve photorealistic results with real-world accuracy.
Testimonials from Beta Testers
“Autodesk ImageModeler 2009 crosses a new frontier in the field of architectural image-based modeling. It offers the possibility of integrating photos and panoramas, for a complete interior and exterior structural survey,” said Livio De Luca, research engineer at CNRS, MAP-Gamsau, Marseilles, and professor of Digital Surveying Techniques at the University of Architecture of Venice.
"Since the beginning, Stitcher has consistently been the fastest and most user-friendly panoramic image editor,” said Michael Eleftheriades, a UK-based media developer. “It remains the software of choice for our panoramic projects. Autodesk Stitcher 2009, with its graphics-accelerated previews and renders, as well as the new automated features, will make it even more indispensable to our panoramic workflows." Eleftheriades fuses his passions for architecture, virtual reality and computer graphics in the creation of large-scale panoramic imagery for virtual tours, computer games and exhibitions.
