Feedback request: Blurring detection issues

When reviewing your scanned images, if you notice any issues with blurring, for example:

  • There are areas blurred when there are no people in the image.

  • People or objects are not blurred when they should be.

NavVis would like the following fedback information:

  • Panoramic images made with the device that are in the datset (unprocessed data).

  • Screenshots of the matching panoramas that have incorrect blurring.

The following section describes the steps for retrieving data (cam files) that we can use for further developing and improving the blurring algorithm together with a proposed workaround for the issue.

Note: Your data will be shared with a third party software company, so by following these steps you agree to these terms.

Data retrieval procedure

To retrieve the cam files required, perform the following steps in the order shown:

  1. Navigate to the IVION panorama location that contains the blurring error.

  8. The XXXXX will be the number of the panorama captured during the scan. In the example above, this is 00018 and the dataset ID is 2023-01-03_09.06.00.

  9. Connect the memory (SSD or USB-C Flashdrive) of your device to your computer.

  10. Open the memory device, navigate to /datasets_rec/<dataset_ID_from_above>/cam/ folder.

  11. Upload the XXXXX-cam0, XXXXX-cam1, XXXXX-cam2 and XXXXX-cam3 files (that correspond to the dataset IDs you noted in step 7) to an online data sharing platform of your choice and share with the support team over support@navvis.com or contact us at the same email address.

Workaround

You can hide these panorama locations that contain blurring issues by right clicking on the image -> Hide current location.
