Panorama images files

Do you have any insight into the image specs of the source files used to create the Panorama images in PTgui or Pano2VR and then the specs/recommendations for the 6 images used in the overlay?

Hi Monica,
I'm not sure exactly what information you are after so I'm going to give it a shot and see if this is what you are after. 
First off PTGui and Pano2VR are two different types of applications. PTGui will stitch your images together to create a 360 x 180 panoramic equirectangular image as well as providing various export options. Pano2VR on the other hand doesn't actually stitch images but will take that equirectangular image created in PTGui and allow you to define parameters, attach UI skins and export in a number of ways including Flash/HTML using mult-resolution files.
So for PTGui your source files should be of the highest quality and resolution you can shoot. For example I shoot on a Canon 5D Mark 2 with a 15mm Canon Fisheye lens. This gives me a RAW file of approximately 28mb, I shoot 6 around and 1 vertically. When I stitch these in PTGui I'll end up with an equirectangular image around 10,000 x 5,000px.
I use Pano2VR, in conjunction with Photoshop, to do any retouching necessary using the patch tool. Then I create a set of output images, HTML and Javascript files because I incorporate the panoramas using a Web Content overlay (see Bob Bringhurst's excellent DPS Tips app for info on how to implement it). In creating the output I use the option to create multi-resolution files, that provide increased resolution as users zoom in.
Alternatively, if you only want to implement the panoramas via the Panorama overlay, you can use PTGui or Pano2VR simply to export the 6 images. In this case I'd export at around 1,000 x 1,000px in jpg format. If you are targeting higher spec devices you could increase the size.

  • How do i get rid of grayed out EXPORT IN FILE on PSE 12? I am trying to export a panoramic photo file.

    I am trying to export a panoramic photo file in PSE 12. but EXPORT under file is grayed out, how do i get rid of it being grayed out?

    Hi,
    This is a follow up to the dialog about "exporting" files back to LR5 after adjusting in PSE12.
    In simple terms, as I am no expert at all, just a long time film photo pro always struggling with the digital technology, even though it is great to use, here is what I need to accomplish.
    After transferring raw files from LR5 and creating a panoramic image file in PSE12,  which shows on my editor next to the several files i created it from. Is it possible to send the newly created panorama file back to LR5 so I could use the print module there. If so, how, what steps need be taken.
    Thank you for your help, I am in no rush, and am very appreciative of your imput.
    Carl
    My overall aim it to create the finest quality panoramic print for exhibition.

  • Unable to create large image file in iphoto

    I make a lot of panoramic images by stitching together overlapping images with hugin in TIFF format, then edit them in iphoto and use it to export them in jpeg format for greater versitality of use. So far I haven't had any trouble, even with large images as big as ~25,000x2000 pixels and ~90MB file size.
    However, I have come across a problem recently trying to export an edited version of a particularly large one - 38,062x1799 136MB file size. I can export an unedited version to jpeg without trouble, but when I tried to export an edited version it gave me an error saying it couldn't create the file. I looked around here for solutions and found the suggestion to check the file size in finder, it was zero. After experimenting I've found that the file size goes to zero as soon as any changes are made to the file, the edited image can still be viewed in iphoto, but does not display if you try to zoom in. I have tried making the TIFF file again with hugin to see if it is a problem with the file, but I also experience the same problem with the newly made file.
    I am working on a Macbook air (1.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory, Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB, Version 10.7.5 OS X) in iphoto '11 version 9.2.2 (629.40). Any suggestions for getting round this issue?

    I thought of something that might help with working out what's going on.
    After I make any edits to the image, if I move on to the info tab the image initially goes a bit blurry as it often does with large images, but instead of coming up as a clear image after a few seconds like normal, I get the image I've attached here and the file size changes to zero. To be able to see the thumbnail of the edited image I need to come back out to the library again, but the file size is still zero. If I revert to original the file size is restored.

  • How to correct "No timestamps were found on any of the image files" in Bridge CS4?

    I am trying to process a "Auto-stack Panorama/HDR" images and I keep getting the error message "No timestamps were found on any of the image files".  I don't understand what this means and how to correct the issue so I can process my images.  All of the images are .CR2 raw files, which Bridge shouldn't have issues with.
    Can anyone help with correcting the issue of the timestamps?

  • Panoramic image prints in wrong orientation on roll paper

    Trying to print panoramic image on roll paper on Epson Silver 1280 printer. Image displays in correct orientation in print preview box but prints across the roll paper as a cropped portion of the image which is 11" X 43" horizontal format. It's a Photoshop CS image printed on G4 powermac in system 10-3-9. Printer connected to computer via usb cable. Everything else prints fine. Just can't print on roll paper. Any thoughts??

    Also, just did this test:
    I used all of my old settings:
    Roll Paper selected
    Ultra Prem. Photo paper luster
    Super 2880 dpi
    no high speed
    And then I used the old paper profile for ilford gallerie smooth pearl. (I used this even though I'm currently printing on Ilford Prestige paper.)
    And it came out with NO faint grey Border!
    Then I tried it with all of those same settings, except I used the older profile for Ilford Gallerie Smooth Pearl for the ROLL paper (IGSPP11Roll_EPP4800_PSPPn.icc)
    Then I got the grey border.
    And finally just to make sure I wasn't crazy, I tried one more time:
    All settings as above except I chose the GPSPP12_EPSpro4800_PSPPn
    Which is the profile I downloaded to match the prestige paper.
    And GREY BORDER!
    So It seems like using the prestige profile was giving me the wash of grey. And also the roll paper version of the old gallerie smooth pearl also gave me a grey border.
    But what should I do now? I want to use the proper paper profile so my colors and tones come out right. I don't feel comfortable just using the wrong paper profile just to stop the border.
    On another note, I researched the Highlight Point shift (based on advice I heard from a friend) and that really sounded like what was causing it. However, I am not even seeing that on my printing options. I must be using a different driver or something. When I'm in photoshop, i just select "File - Print" and then go through that normal dialog. Is there some other way to print that gives me many more options?
    Thanks to you all for your help so far.

  • Creative Live! Motion Panoramic Image Updload?

    Hi there,
    Love the camera, really full featured.. BUT:
    The best thing about this camera is its panoramic image taking facility - to a numbered file anywhere you choose...
    but.... two things...
    1). If there is a way to schedule all ofther kinds of images and events and sizes, surely to have a panoramic image displayed as a webcam image taken every minute or so would make amazing viewing on a webpage?
    - which is what i was hoping to achieve for our schools weather station.. Is there any way to automate this, i really dont think i oculd sit here and press this button every minute!
    2). Also, is there any way to make each image have the same filename and simply overwrite? I know simple freeware such as FWINK do this wonderfully, but they wouldnt know how to control such a funky camera to take a panoramic image... so on our weatherstation page it just displays weathercam.jpg for example, which gets overwritten every 60 seconds...!?
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Andy / Ben

    Thanks for the reply Jeremy!
    Right, checked out what you said the FTP upload single image bit would work - but as the previous camera saved to a single location and single filename on the hard dri've, which was actually part of a virtual directory and instantly part of the website - FTP isnt required in this situation. Shame I couldnt specify a single filename.
    Even if I could get it to schedule a shot to a single file every 60 seconds there is still no way to schedule a panoramic shot - just all of the traditional aspect ratio ones, with only a take panoramic shot button in that mode.. I'm scouring everywhere for software that will, but I just dont think it exists!
    Thank you for continuing to help!

  • Error "A web exception has occurred during file upload" when trying to import ESXi image file into Update Manager

    I'm encountering this error and not sure how to fix, I'm quite new to vCenter so please bear with me.
    I'm trying out vCenter 5.1 with Update Manager 5.1 right now.  No license key has been entered and I still have 50 odd days to try it out.
    2 ESXi hosts are being managed by this vCenter, and they're both running ESXi 4.0
    I'm looking to use Update Manager to try to upgrade the ESXi 4.0 hosts to ESXi 5.1
    I downloaded the image file VMware-VIMSetup-all-5.1.0-799735.iso from VMWare website, and is looking to import it using the Update Manager so I can update the ESXi hosts, but I keep on getting the error:
    File name:     VMware-VIMSetup-all-5.1.0-799735.iso
    Failed to transfer data
    Error was: A web exception has occurred during file upload
    I tried importing it by using vSphere client to connect to vCenter server both remotely and locally, with firewall disabled.
    I've read http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1026602
    I've disabled firewall, and there is no anti-virus program on the server.  I've also restarted the machine several times, to no avail, I didn't reinstall update manager because the whole Windows and VCenter installations are clean from scratch.
    I logged into the vSphere Client using Active Directory credentials, and I've made all Domain Admins (which my account is a member of) part of the administrator group on the vCenter server. I can't log in using admin@System-Domain because it tells me I don't have permissions for it, I still haven't really had the chance to figure out why that is and not sure if that makes a difference.
    Also, I'm fairly certain I'm using the right image file, as I've burned some DVD's used that image file to upgrade some other ESXi hosts.  Unless there's a special image file I need to download?
    I'm at lost on what I can do to make it work.  Please advise.
    Thanks.

    The ISO file you mentioned is the one for vCenter Server. What you need is the "VMware-VMvisor-Installer-5.1.0-799733.x86_64.iso" (or VMware-VMvisor-Installer-201210001-838463.x86_64.iso) for the ESXi host.

  • A generic error occurred in GDI+ while assing tiff image file to Bitmap and Image

    Hi,
    I am getting "A generic error occurred in GDI+" error while reading the tiff image file to Bitmap or Image.
    Below is my sample code.
    string filePath=@"c:\Images\sample.tif";
    Bitmap bmp=new Bitmap(filePath);   // here getting exception
    int totalpages=bmp.GetFrameCount(.....);
    etc......
    I tried using Bitmap.FromFile() and also from FromStream() even for Image also but there is no use.
    Moreover i m having full permissions for the file path and the tiff file is having multiple pages.
    Can anyone help me to solve this issue please.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Make sure that the Tif file is valid (can other software open it)?  If you are able to save a Tif using GDI+, try saving that Tif, then opening it.  Part of me wonders if there is something about that specific Tif that GDI+ doesn't like.
    You could also try using WIC to open the TIF, perhaps you would have better luck there.

    Dear friends
    In this i attach my image file in Tif format & jpeg format
    Please go through this vi
    this vi it will display a image window when u click inside that window a square box will create, where ever u click it will create multiple box. i used imaq windraw function, u can see another image window in the front pannel also.
    now my aim is to put a box over that spot with the spot as center and to extract the pixel values of the individual boxes,
    now whats happening is when i run this program a image window is opening from the imaq windraw function in that 1ly i can able to put multiple box but that box is displayed in the image display in the front pannel also. but i cant put the box in the image window in the front pannel. if u click the mouse in the image window in the front pannel it will display the 25x25pixel values.
    i want both to be done in a same window i want to put a multiple square box and the pixel values i want to extract seperately for the individual boxes. please help me give some ideas how to do this please modify this vi.

    Sasi,
    I am a little confused on what exactly you want to do and why you are using both WinDraw and an Image Display Control to show the image. It sounds like what you want to be able to do are the following 3 things:
    1) Display the Image
    2) Click on the image and have a rectangle overlay appear on image
    3) Get the pixel values from that rectangle into an array
    If I am understanding you correctly, then you should only display the image using one of the above display methods and have only a signal case structure in your code that adds the overlay to the image AND extracts the pixel values. I am a little unclear as to why you have decided to only get the pixel values if the user clicks on the Image Display and only draw the rectangle if the user clicks on the WinDraw display.
    I have attached an image of a block diagram, which is what I think that you are trying to do. In the block diagram you can see that I have combined everything into one case structure so that whenever a user clicks on the Image Display (no WinDraw) then I add a rectangle overlay to my image and also get the pixel values for that area. If you want to keep track of the pixel values for each rectangle then you could use a shift register and build up a 3-D array with all of this information ... or write the data to file ... or use another method to keep that data for future use.

  • How to delete a jar file after loading image files from it

    Hi,
    How can I delete a jar file after some image files have been loaded? For example, say, I have "a.jar" which contains an image "a.gif" in the root directory of the c drive. I would like to get the image size and then delete the jar file. Here is the code snippet:
        URL url = new URL("jar:file:/C:\\a.jar!/a.gif");
        Icon icon = new ImageIcon(url);
        System.out.println("icon size ? " + icon.getIconHeight());
        File file = new File("c:\\a.jar");
        while(file.exists())
            file.delete();
            try
                Thread.sleep(100);
            catch (InterruptedException ignored)
        System.out.println("file deleted.");I get the image size correctly but just can not delete the jar file. Apparently the file handle is not released, but how to close it? Any hint will be appreciated.
