Image capture technology has come a long way in recent years such as 3D cameras. They are now more powerful, affordable, and smaller than ever before. Panasonic has collaborated with UNESCO to photograph panoramic views of seven heritage sites around the world. “The purpose of these images is to allow people to have an experience like they’d have if they went to these sites in person.” The five 3D cameras stitch together a scene displayed on five HD plasma display panel, immersing the viewer in a rich and vibrant environment. As Panasonic’s panoramic imaging system advances, the use of a 3D panoramic system may be capturing other events around the world such as future Olympic games, art museums, and space exploration for future generations to experience. One step closer to the Holodeck :)
