An image quality that makes you feel like you are there
The panorama, of up to 360°, has such a high definition that it is possible to see even the smallest details in the image. The digital sensor was developed specifically for photography applications and allows a high dynamic range and vivid colors, allowing details in the sky and clouds as well as on the ground. The Roundshot Livecam applies the same image algorithms as in our high-end panorama cameras - to ensure optimal image quality.
With our new full screen function you will feel you are there yourself! With the simple click of a button, the full screen feature loads the full image resolution, up to 2x full HDTV! Full screen is part of our FTP and web hosting service.
The new Roundshot Livecam is equipped with a very sensitive RGB scanning sensor which makes it possible to capture the full 360° panorama in just a few seconds.
Thanks to this high sensitivity and speed, the high dynamic range of the 9-stop sensor and the Seitz image optimization technology it is possible to capture images from early morning dawn until late night sunset. |

| What is the difference between a conventional webcam and a Roundshot Livecam? |
|
Firstly: the image. You obtain more image angle (up to 360°) than any other camera offers. The seamless panorama (without stitching) and the beautiful colors gives you the impression to be there yourself. The image resolution is very high (up to 66 million pixels) and invites to explore details. As the image rotates continuously, your website is always in motion.
Secondly: the features. We have programmed some exceptional features never seen before in a webcam!
Thirdly: the graphics. It is simple to understand and makes your website visitors stay on your web page for a longer time. It is attractive and always new - your website visitors will come back again and again. |
