PhotoModeler 2012.0 released

EOS systems released PhotoModeler Scanner 2012.0 and Photomodeler 2012.0

New in PhotoModeler 

• 2012.0
  • DSM Masks. Dense Surface Model’s area-of-study can now be controlled more precisely with a bit-mask (as an alternative to polygon trims). (scanner only)
  • Alpha Masks. For those working in animation production pipelines, where your images have the alpha channel set up as a mask, PhotoModeler can now read these and use to mask texture and DSM creation.
  • Chroma-keying. PhotoModeler can now create masks (for use in DSM and texture creation) from a blue or green screen background.
  • Measure. Two new measurement capabilities: cylinder and line angles with the coordinate planes, and closest distance between a point and a mesh.
  • … and 45 other fixes and small improvements.

The upgrade patch & more detailed Information can be found here.

PhotoModeler 2011.0.0 released

EOS systems released PhotoModeler Scanner 2011.0.0 and Photomodeler 2011.0.0

New in PhotoModeler 

• 2011.0.0
  • Camera station GPS and Geo Coords. Multi-point and multi-point-geo affines can now assign a camera station’s position to a known x,y,z location to define the coordinate system. If an assigned camera station’s image contains geographic information in it’s image header (e.g. from a gps) this information can optionally be extracted and assigned.
  • Open-photo feedback. The photo thumbnail IDs, in the Photo Control, now turn green when the photo is open, and remains black if the photo is closed - providing a way to quickly identify photos that are already open.
  • Further speed improvements. Several optimizations have been done to improve speed (focused on SmartMatch autoprojects). SmartMatch projects run from 5% to 50% faster.
  • Cursor key table navigation. You can now navigate tables using the Up Arrow (move up one), Down Arrow (move down one), Home (move to top row), and End (move to bottom row) keys, in addition to the Page Down and Page Up keys that previously were enabled.
  • .. and 60 other small improvements and fixes.

PhotoModeler 2010.0.9 released

EOS systems released PhotoModeler Scanner 2010.0.9 and Photomodeler 2010.0.9

New in PhotoModeler 

• 2010.0.9
  • In-table Editting. Double clicking on the User Name cell of a table view allows you to edit the name directly in the table (avoiding need to have Property pane open).
  • Security. All components (the executable, DLLs and installer) are now digitally signed showing Eos Systems as developer.
  • Annotations. An ‘Annotation’ column has been added to the “Dimensions/Annotations” table. The annotation string is shown if the object is an annotation, ‘n/a’ is shown if a measurement.
  • .. and 37 other small improvements and fixes.
