4th JANUARY, 2008 - IMMERSAVIEW RELEASE SOL7 v0.9

sol7ImmersaView are pleased to release the latest version of Sol7, v0.9.  Sol7 is a software tool for geometric correction (warping) and edge blending of full screen, real-time applications.  The software is simply manipulated through interactive control points, aligning the projected display to the screen surface.  Sol7 corrects imagery for:
- non-planar screen shapes such as curved screens;
- unusual projection angles;
- a seamless image from multiple projectors; and
- any combination of the above.

Sol7 software runs in the background and uses the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to perform the necessary image processing functions.  This means there is no additional hardware involved.
 
ImmersaView's director and lead developer, Alexander Streit said "We’ve added new features that make it even easier to use the software and have increased compatibility with a host of new applications.”
 
Sol7 v0.9 also provides additional support for media players.  Some of the recommended media players include Apple QuickTime Player, MediaPlayerClassic, VideoLan Client, MPlayer and Microsoft Windows Media Center.
 
If you would like to obtain a free demo of Sol7, or would like any further information, then please contact us

17th August, 2007 - Sol7 0.8 Released

Sol7
Brisbane based ImmersaView announced the release of Sol7 v0.8 on Friday, 17 August 2007. Sol7 is a software tool for geometric correction (warping) and edge blending of full screen real-time applications. The software is simply manipulated through interactive control points, aligning the projected display to the screen surface. Sol7 corrects imagery for:
- non-planar screen shapes such as curved screens;
- unusual projection angles;
- a seamless image from multiple projectors; and
- any combination of the above.

The Sol7 software runs in the background and uses the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to perform the necessary image processing functions. This means there is no additional hardware involved.

ImmersaView's director and lead developer, Alexander Streit said "One advantage is that Sol7 v0.8 isn't limited by bandwidth or resolution, making it the perfect choice for high definition."

Curved screens are often used in simulation and visualization applications, as they provide a sense of immersion to the viewer. Projection onto curved screens requires geometric correction to appear undistorted on screen. Multiple projectors can be combined to form a single image using edge blending, which seamlessly merges all sections of the image.

Alexander Streit, said "Sol7 v0.8 lets you create more compelling projection displays. It is incredibly easy to use and can be configured in minutes."
