Immersive Technology
Unlike traditional digital video or still photography, in which the person controlling the camera decides what data is important to capture within a limited frame of view, immersive technology offers the viewer a continuous 360° field-of-view. And unlike "virtual reality," immersive technology uses only real-world images and data.

Initially funded by the Department of Energy and NASA, IPIX developed one of the first commercially available systems to produce 360° by 360° navigable images. Based on this work, IPIX secured its first patent and has since developed such breakthrough innovations as a very high-resolution video camera that can capture fine visual details like facial features and license plates.

IPIX immersive technology includes both hardware devices, such as video cameras and special fisheye lenses for still cameras, as well as image processing software that "stitches" individual images into a full spherical environment that can be navigated by a viewer.

Immersive Photography
A single immersive image frame can be used for a virtual tour, project documentation, safety training, or an archival data base of images for forensic analysis. Other popular applications include site inspection, construction documentation, project planning, and emergency planning.

Consecutive immersive image frames can be streamed together to create an immersive video for surveillance applications, or polished for sale as content on DVDs or Web-casts.

Pricing
$140 for the location (includes one iPIX photo) and each additional iPIX photo is $40
