REALVIZ� LAUNCHES IMAGEMODELER� 3.5 FOR WINDOWS� XP/2000 AT IMAGINA 2003 IN MONACOEurope's Foremost Visual Effects Event Provides Backdrop For The Debut of Latest Version of Award-winning Image Based 3D Modeling Software, Now Available For Windows� XP/2000, as well as Mac OSX
Sophia Antipolis, France (January 29, 2003) - REALVIZ�, a leader in image processing software development, is pleased to announce the availability of ImageModeler� 3.5, for Windows� XP/2000. (A Mac OSX version of the application also recently began shipping in December 2002.) Using photographs as a revolutionary approach to 3D content creation, REALVIZ ImageModeler 3.5, offers an innovative and intuitive approach to the often time-consuming and complex task of creating 3D models. Version 3.5 is the result of over 1 year's intensive work, drastically improving workflow processes and productivity levels, whilst enabling the accurate re-creation of even the most complex of objects or scenes. REALVIZ will be demonstrating ImageModeler 3.5 at Imagina, which takes place at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco from February 3-6, 2003. During the show, REALVIZ will be present on each of the 4 days on the CAD stand. Using advanced algorithms, REALVIZ ImageModeler 3.5 extracts 3D information from photographs, and helps users to measure and recreate accurate 3D models with highly realistic results. Automatic texturing from photographs drastically reduces the time necessary to create high-quality models compared to traditional 3D modeling applications. Additional features such as the ability to make point-to-point measurements and to create texture per object with the Unwrap Texture feature help users create models that suit their individual needs. A new calibration engine makes for significantly faster and more accurate scene reconstruction for amazingly life-like models and textures, which can then be exported to your favorite package. REALVIZ ImageModeler is a multifaceted application, which can be employed by 3D content creators working in numerous industries, including the modeling of scenes or buildings for architectural purposes, for calculations and 3D surveys from photographs, for creating 3D virtual visits and the fast creation of photo-realistic backdrops, for human modeling, industrial design, animation and special effects, or for the simple creation of photo-realistic objects compatible with Web 3D formats. "REALVIZ ImageModeler 3.5 increased my productivity for the design of photorealistic models used in real time 3D animations. The quality of extracted textures is incredible. Moreover the interface of ImageModeler 3.5 has been significantly improved, making the software easier to learn." Mike Castro Demaria (supersonique.net) Macworld UK recently named REALVIZ ImageModeler 3.5 as one of the winners of the prestigious Macworld Best of Show Awards, representing the most exciting hardware and software products announced at MacExpo 2002 at the Business Design Centre in London. To be eligible for Best of Show consideration, products were either making their public debut at MacExpo, or were recently introduced and likely to generate excitement on the show floor. In October 2002, REALVIZ also highlighted the work of US client, View Studio, who used REALVIZ ImageModeler with stunning results in their visual effects work for the Tom Cruise/Steven Spielberg movie 'Minority Report', which was recently named as one of the 7 films being considered for Achievement in Visual Effects for the 75th Academy Awards. Imagina 2003 The International Festival for Digital Images, takes place at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco from February 3-6, 2003 and hosts a festival, conferences and the Industry and Innovation Village - presenting the latest technological advances and an in-depth conference schedule, providing the ideal platform for exchanges between the various communities involved in digital imaging. During the event, REALVIZ will be present on each of the 4 days on the CAD (C�te d'Azur D�veloppement) stand.
