The 2.5 gigapixel photo TNO has produced the largest digital panoramic photo in the world. So, what do we mean by large? After all, modern consumer cameras can easily take a picture with 5 million pixels. Well, we are talking about a photo of completely different dimensions. One with 2.5 billion pixels - that's 500 times more pixels. If this photo were printed, it would measure 6.67 m by 2.67 m (300 dpi). The photograph shows Delft and its surroundings in the autumn of 2004. It was taken the top of the Electrical Engineering faculty of Delft University, at a height of about 100 m, by TNO.

> and more > > Found a cat. > > found this not yet, give a clue It was on a balcony far on the pic but I don't remeber where exactly. Well it looked like a cat. On another near balcony there was a man sitting on a chair. That's all I remember. Too bad there is only one pic, it's really funny to explore like that. |

> This is absolutely amazing :) > Wish some paparazzi had an equipment like that... ;) > God NO ! I hate these paparazzi, They are useless. I would rather see it in the hands of National geographic or any other organisations that employ "real" photograph. Heu...Perhaps some paparazzi sometimes work for those? A great project would be to have every single place on earth being pictured using this technology, and being accessable to public view via the Internet. Imagine all the things you could see, place you could virtualy visit from the comfort of your home. It surelly would not replace real travelling but not everyone can affoard to travel. Anyway I like that city. Very neat and clean, organize, calm, etc. A typical Northern Europe city. |
