PANOVIS is a web-based 360° panoramic measuring and visualization software solution developed by Panolife GmbH. It allows for precise measurements and integration of virtual 3D objects within photo-realistic, interactive, and geographically referenced worlds created from 360° panoramic images and laser scanning. The technology was inspired by NASA's Mars rover missions and has commercial applications for 3D modeling of buildings, cities, and landscapes. Panolife is seeking 2.5 million euros in start-up financing to further develop PANOVIS as a future of web-based 3D visualization.
