CycloVision Exhibits ParaShot Technology at Interactive Sports '99 West Conference
NEW YORK--April 26, 1999-- CycloVision Technologies, Inc., an emerging start-up specializing in 360-degree technology solutions, today announced that it will exhibit its ParaShot technology at the Interactive Sports '99 West conference, April 26-27, in Santa Monica, CA. ParaShot is a digital camera attachment that enables users to capture a full 360-degrees in a single shot, and rapidly deploy panoramic images to the Web. Internet sports professionals can integrate the ParaShot to offer instant, 360-degree images of sporting events, allowing viewers to experience a game online from every angle.
Based on patented technology, the ParaShot integrates PC-based software with a parabolic mirror and relay lens to quickly and easily capture and post 360-images to a Web site - without requiring plug-ins, stitching, separate processing steps, or additional fees. With a digital camera (Agfa e1280/e1680 or Nikon Coolix 900), users can create photographs that capture a full 360-degrees of a playing field, sports arena, and more, in a single exposure. Once captured, images can be rapidly downloaded to the Web. Using standard browsers, viewers can navigate ParaShot-enabled stills, exploring play-by-play shots using left/right directional, pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities.
