Sachform Technology has released PANObase Vol.1, a collection of ultra-high-res texture maps in HDR- format (High Dynamic Range Image). The images have a resolution of 8000x4000 pixels, double that of previous Sachform products.

(continued...)

Techspecs: PANObase Vol.1
- 30 different sets (*.hdr + *.tif) winterly landscapes, snow-situations
- resolution of 8000x4000 pixels
- color, mono + blurry version of each set (->90 HDRIs)
- all HDRIs are full spherical panorama images
- easy-to-use database interface
- HDR + LDR version enclosed

Each of the 30 HDR-images is enclosed in 3 different HDR- and 2 different LDR-variations.

The highres versions (8000x4000 in color and b/w) are well suited for most job-situations where a reflection-environment is needed.
Using the enclosed blurred versions (200x100 in color and b/w) of the panoramas, the artist is able to lighten scenes (in most cases) with faster rendering speed/smoother sampling distribution.
Using such a combination of LowRes and HighRes HDR-images the artist receives freedom of choice while keeping speed and quality concerning the output.
