Do Me A Favor!

But when your scanning large areas like a roof or a wall indoors close up, why do you need a reference in the first place?

As Charley pointed out, you "can" adjust the thing but we are asking someone to adjust when they don't even "tune" the image!

Heck most of the time I'm stitching scans together, not making them smaller!



Charley, I was going to submit this at New Orleans.
Would I have had a chance? I couldn't see the winner you guys posted.
There is a lot of stuff going on in this scan if you look around...

Its a nice image would have been tough to beat the other image I can see where you stitched together. His 3-D was great maybe we can all put our heads together next year and beat him out. I have some good images but its going to take more than I have. Need something spectacular

This is how they make flash models that can be manipulated online or what have you.

That would be an amazing project to do something like that with IR.

Here is some of the most amazing stuff I have seen to date:

This is unreal:

http://www.stocktoninfrared.com/Resi..._1024_768.html - Give it time to load then click move around, then click the color wheel thing on the screen to switch between IR and digital. The mouse wheel will zoom in and out. You might have to right click on the link then open in new tab/window, I always have a hard time straight linking this link.

Greg is so far beyond anything that anyone is doing. For those that say there is no money in IR just look at his business model. He was a roofer in 1989. Now he is the leading IR company...maybe in the world, but for sure in the USA. As a side note, he is the co-owner of United Infrared. So for those that are considering joining them, you literally get trained by the best via their modules. Anyone see the missing cat?

The business truly is whatever you can dream up.

As a side note, one of my customers won the 2011 and 2010 IR/Info best image. He did it with a FLIR P640. Here is his site...amazing stuff on here also:

http://infraredimagingservices.com/

Check out his data center page. The main image on that page is sick. Actually, just about every image on his site is pretty amazing. Wayne started with the P640, back to Linus's point of using higher end cameras. I believe he has been in the IR business since 2008....it didn't take him very long to build it up.

Nice image, Can't say I use PIP.....not a fan I guess. As others have basically said make things too busy. Just bells / whistles I would trade that feature for a brighter lamp for the built in digital camera.
My Best,

Yes I have seen them. That's what got me looking at the digital computer controlled tripod. It would be interesting to try that in conjunction with good stitching program and Virtual touring software such as http://www.easypano.com/gallery/pano...tual-tour.html or even Photosynth panoramas http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=...7-9558fde24f18 Should be able to do 360 views of individual objects too.

It would be nice to be able to shoot it in video, then use a video frame extractor to feed the 3d modelling software frame by frame. Would give the net effect of hundreds or even thousands of individual images to build the model from. Good way to overcome limitations in pixel resolution too. It won't be radiometric but that shouldn't matter if everything is manually tuned beforehand. I might have to try some experimentation with this.
