Free panoramas software for mac

Panorama Tools 2.6b1 is developed to be an effective tool which enables you to generate, edit and transform many kinds of panoramic images.

Panorama Enterprise Server 5.5.2 is designed as a totally RAM based general purpose database server which is useful for Mac OS X. This server allows lightning fast RAM based databases to be shared by multiple users with full record locking. These users may be on a local network or spread across the Internet (or even without a network at all, see below). The Panorama Enterprise Server can also be used to create ultra-fast web database applications.

Unlike traditional client/server systems that sequester all of the data on a central server, the Panorama Enterprise system uses a "mesh" architecture to distribute RAM based copies of the shared data across the network. This mesh technology dramatically cuts delays associated with common database tasks by spreading the load across the network.

The Enterprise system works much like a formation of fighter jets teamed with an aerial tanker. Instead of hoarding all of the data on the central server, the Enterprise system distributes complete, redundant copies of the shared data across the network mesh. Operations that don't involve other clients (searching, sorting, analysis, reports, etc.) are performed independently at solid state speed in each client's local RAM, there are no disk delays anywhere in the system. The server is only involved for coordinating data flow across the mesh, managing record locking and updating modified data on clients as necessary.

One unique feature of the system is that users can disconnect from the network and continue working even when completely offline and detached -- for example when on an airplane or away from network connections. Database changes made while offline are synchronized automatically when returning to the network. No special setup or programming is required -- this synchronization logic is built into the server itself. This feature is especially useful for companies with employees working in the field.

Other key features of Panorama Enterprise Server include WYSIWYG design tools for building web forms, remote configuration, management and debugging tools, support for Google Analytics, and automatic backup of live databases.

Pano2VR 2.3 beta 4 is a utility to convert panoramic images into the QuickTime VR (QTVR) or Macromedia Flash 8 and Flash 9 formats with features including customizable skins, hotspots and auto-rotation.

Pano2VR 2.0 supports cylindrical, equirectangular, cube faces, cross, T, strip and QuickTime VR as input formats with the added ability to convert between these formats for retouching the cube faces. Supported file formats are JPEG, PNG and TIFF with 8, 16 or 32 bits per channel and QuickTime VR files encoded with JPEG.

Pano2VR exports the panorama including all graphical elements as a single SWF file in the Flash 8 or Flash 9 format. This allows greater control over the download behavior and makes it easier to distribute the panorama to clients, add it to content management systems or post it on a blog.

Pano2Movie 2.1.73 comes as an effective application for creating videos from your QTVR panoramas. It runs natively on Windows and Mac OS X (PPC and Intel) and can export directly to a QuickTime movie. Unlike QTVR files, video files can be edited in regular movie editing software, and integrated into video DVDs.

Major Features:

1. Universal Binary
2. All rendering done off-screen
3. A QuickTime Pro license is no longer required.
4. Record paths through the panorama.
5. Edit and save paths.
6. Use the same path on multiple panoramas.
7. Export as a sequence of images.
8. Export to a QuickTime video file.
9. Use any installed QuickTime codec, or use losslessly-compressed PNG format.
10. Pick from a series of preset video sizes or use custom dimensions.

Enhancements:

• Fixes some preferences and quitting bugs

Requirements

• OS X 10.4 or above (10.5.2 or above recommended)
• Quick time 7.1 or above
