Panorama from e57 intensity

Post by MalteHC »

Hi All

I recall that i have seen a small free software, that will create 360 panoama photoes, from the intensity in a structured e57 file.
Does anyone know, what this software is called?

Hi Malte,
Interesting question. Beside the name of the software, what would be the use case of such artificial panorama? 🤔

I could see this being useful if you wanted to used the Pano's from a scanner that didn't have color imagery.

Upload them to Holobuilder.com or something similar to make a sitewalk. not as useful as truviews/LGS/webshare, but still would have some value.

Most software that works with scanners can export pano images in both color and intensity.

even to use them as a check on what data was in each e57 without having to import them (a second time) to find out.

Has been a feature request .. primary interest was for machine learning - easier to train against an image.

Also very easy to create a truview style web experience .. :?

as scott replyed, shall they be used to see what is inside buildings, without having to open e57.
