is publicly available and it's time to give it a try and play with the technology.
Before starting you should be aware of some facts about the public photosynth technology-preview:
-
all synths are uploaded and only available online (broadband needed)
-
all synths are public, everyone can access them
-
the synther tool runs only on Windows
-
you'll need a Live ID
When everything is checked you can go and upload up to 20 Gbytes of image data - my
test synth takes up 200 Mbytes of the available space - so you have plenty of space
to play with.
To start just install the photosynth application to view - and click "create" on the
website. After the obligatory login you immediately can upload your pictures. Give
it a name, ssome tags and a license and select your pictures.
Your pictures should show the same scene from different perspectives - photosynth
is all about matching perspectives. After clicking on "Synth" the process starts.
And after a surprisingly short period of time your synth is done. Click on "View Synth"
and you're taken back to the website and you can browse your synth. That's it - easy!
