(NCTech: Edinburgh, UK, and Houston, TX) --NCTech, the developer of reality imaging systems, announces two new developments for its industrial-grade iSTAR panoramic camera. The company will be demonstrating these developments at the SPAR 3D Expo & Conference, April 11–14, 2016, in The Woodlands, Texas.

Designed for rapid 360° imaging, iSTAR is a panoramic camera that precisely captures full spherical immersive images and high-resolution panoramic data streams for fast, efficient visual documentation of an environment. The new developments are as follows.

Measurement module

NCTech has developed a new software development kit for measurement. This enables iSTAR users to take measurements from directly within a spherical image by combining a “stereo pair” of iSTAR images. NCTech is providing the software development kit free of charge to enable third parties to build the measurement capability into their own software.
