Virtual Objects
The production of virtual objects is another one of our new media services. These images are viewed on a personal computer where users can rotate a virtual copy of an item at any angle or zoom in for a closer look. This ability to interact with such images creates an impression that objects have been transported to the viewer's computer.
We create virtual objects using either a megapixel digital camera or a camcorder connected to a video capture card. Items are photographed on a Kaidan computer automated turntable that can accomodate objects up to 24 inches in diameter. The resulting images are stored in two standard file formats:
- Live Picture's IVR format
- Apple Computer's QuickTime VR format
Object size and resolution are optimized for delivery via:
- Internet
- CD-ROMs
- Floppy disks
Some current examples are supplied below.
