Heidi Walker: Hi my name is Heidi and I am with Giroptic 360, here to introduce to you our world's first true 360 panoramic camera to create your virtual tours. It looks very similar to some old technology that's been out in the market for a while but we are very, very different. The first thing about our camera is we take a true, one shot 360 picture. Traditionally virtual tours are created by a series of still pictures, taken around the room and they are stitched together and then edited typically in photoshop or a program to correct lighting issues, our camera avoids all of that. We take a true 360 picture, if you could look at this screen, our pictures are an actual doughnut versus a series of pictures stitched together and what we do is we have a different technology that we call HDR and what the HDR technology is, is a series of three pictures. The first picture our camera takes is going to reflect the way the lighting shows up in the room without any flash. The second picture is going to show an over exposure of the lighting and the third picture is going to show an under exposure of the lighting. When you merge the... when you plug the camera in through USB port into your computer we merge those three pictures together lay them on top of each other to give you one final color corrected picture which creates a beautiful virtual tour and the last difference that's huge is we take a circular picture and we keep it a circular product and a circular tour or traditionally it's a flat picture turned into a circular view. So sometimes you will have a funny edge on your corners and it will give you a fishy look which we definitely don't have. So as you can see without going into what our system can do on the cool, virtual tourist side just the camera alone is extremely cool. So again I am Heidi with Giroptic 360 and thank you for this opportunity.
