EarthCam Introduces The World's First Outdoor Gigapixel Construction Camera Automated Robotic System Produces Over 1 Billion Pixel Panoramas FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE New York, June 14, 2012 -- Think all construction cameras are the same?

Featured prominently on the new and improved EarthCam.net website, clients will learn why this system is a must for many construction, transportation and entertainment projects. The system is programmed to automatically capture up to one hundred images and automatically stitch together a scenic 360° panorama. Other features include:
· Live video, user-controllable pan/tilt/zoom controls and snapshot on-demand "EarthCam has broken through the megapixel barrier of imaging with this revolutionary webcam technology", said Brian Cury, CEO and Founder of EarthCam. “Currently, the highest quality webcams are measured in megapixels where 10, 12 or 14 megapixels are considered the best in the industry. The GigapixelCam is truly unique because of its ability to zoom in and take 16 megapixel snapshots of very detailed areas and then stitch them together into a mosaic which, when viewed in its entirety, looks like one unified image. The real differentiator is when you digitally zoom in to examine the picture detail, you are looking at an extremely high resolution picture, not a pixelated rendering.” In addition to the new GigapixelCam, EarthCam is also introducing some innovative features, which will accelerate the operational effectiveness of their construction camera solutions. Engineered specifically for their line of robotic megapixel cameras, including the new camera, is a special geo-pointing system. This smart, reliable feature allows the client to precisely direct the camera at any desired point by entering GPS coordinates. The super-fast and accurate webcam base ensures consistent positioning necessary for detailing critical areas of jobsites and creating time-lapse movies.
