What Members are saying about prMac:
"prMac is definitely among the most valuable services available to the Mac industry. For a fraction of what major press release newswire services charge, you can get your press releases published and distributed to your target audience. prMac's coverage is fantastic, so it's a breeze to effectively and efficiently get company and product information out to the Mac public. If prMac's service cost 10 times as much, it would still be a huge value. For companies in the Mac industry, prMac is the biggest no-brainer going."

AutoStitch iPhone Released - Experience Automated Wide-Angle Photography
Vancouver, CA Jun 16, 2009 in Photo and Video
[prMac.com] Vancouver, Canada - Cloudburst Research has announced AutoStitch iPhone. This app makes wide-angle photography a reality on the iPhone, allowing multiple images to be seamlessly combined into a panoramic mosaic, with no user input other than selecting the photos. This app significantly increases the fun-factor of creating panoramas on the iPhone, with automatic recognition of overlapping images, and the ability to stitch with horizontal and vertical motion.
AutoStitch automatically identifies the overlapping portions of images and assembles them into a single seamless result. This means it isn't limited to the single sweep common in other panorama applications - AutoStitch can stitch any set of overlapping images that are taken from the same location. The user simply selects a set of images from the camera roll or photo albums, and AutoStitch does the rest.
The AutoStitch approach is based on cutting-edge university research in image recognition. The core technology for automated image matching was developed by the founders of Cloudburst Research, and further refined to suit the unique capabilities of the iPhone. AutoStitch is already popular among digital camera users, as evidenced by the large user community on photography sites such as Flickr. However, until now, automated stitching has not been possible on mobile platforms. AutoStitch iPhone now makes this possible - users can take photos and immediately stitch them directly on their iPhone.
Features of AutoStitch include:
* A simple and intuitive interface. Just select images and touch "Stitch."
* Images can be taken in portrait or landscape orientation with any order or layout
* Images can overlap by any amount from 15% to 100%
* Stitch any number from 2 to 20 or more images
* Use your existing camera app to take the photos
System Requirements:
* Any iPhone with OS 2.0 or later
Pricing and Availability:
AutoStitch is available now for purchase for just $1.99 (USD). It is distributed exclusively through Apple's App Store. Review copies are available to the media upon request.
Located in Vancouver, BC, Canada, Cloudburst Research is a spin-off company from the University of British Columbia. Its founders include: Matthew Brown, a post-doctoral researcher in computer vision who is the original developer of AutoStitch; David Lowe, a professor at the University of British Columbia who invented the underlying feature matching algorithm; and, Bob Hearn, a computer science researcher and software developer with extensive experience in iPhone and Mac software design.
