Roundshot VR Drive “s” For High Speed Digital 360° Panorama Photography

 Roundshot VR Drive “s” For High Speed Digital 360° Panorama Photography

Swiss company Seitz Phototechnik AG launches a new automated panorama head that sets a new standard in high-speed, consistent 360° photography. The new Roundshot VR Drive “s” - speed - works in a simple, two step process. Firstly, it rotates, completing a revolution in eight seconds, while capturing up to 5 images per second. Secondly, the resulting images are assembled with high-powered stitching software.

The VR Drive’s precision and smooth rotation allows higher resolution panoramas than are achievable with manually operated stitching solutions. Its high processing speed also eliminates the problem of ‘ghosting’ when capturing moving objects such as people or clouds.
