Dear krpano community,

This is a preview for the upcoming new zFilter WebGL postprocessing plugin.

zFilter allows to dynamically alter your panoramas with effects like
- brightness, contrast, gamma and exposure
- hue, saturation and vibrance
- you can add a sepia effect
- you can tint and blend your panoramas with any color
- you can blur them !
- and you can add a vignette !

Applying these effects works as simple as:
set(plugin[zfilter].blur, 10); or
tween(plugin[zfilter].saturaton, -1);

zFilter is intended for all kinds of Intros,
for blending in or out to black or other colors without the need for layers,
for effects like desaturation or blurring the background while displaying popus or videos
or... come up with your ideas, I'm looking forward to see how you will use it :)

But enough words, I have uploaded three movies here:

zFilter will be a commercial plugin,
working in HTML5 with WebGL ("html5+webgl")
Flash is a different technology and sadly can't be supported, sorry.
but WebVR will be fully supported !

Until then it would be nice to hear your thoughts about it!

best,

Zitat von »Tuur«

i suppose it will also work on 360 video (?)

I didnt test that yet, but theoretically that should work ...
would you maybe have a small test project on which i could test?

Zitat von »Sergey74«

It would be interesting to see the overlay modes (screen, multiply etc.)

tintcolor is not a standard color tint, now, but i maybe could change that to lighten, screen or color mode, what do you think?
blendcolor is working like "normal" mode. if you blend 100%, you get the pure color.
this is for fading from or to black (or any color) without the need of layers

i could make a 360 video test using zFilter today...
works very nicely, too :)

Zitat von »Mael B.«

would it be possible to use this zFilter to modify only image layers or image hotspots ?

no sorry, that is not possible at the moment.
it is a limitation by the krpano webgl api.
klaus told me that there might be possibilites like this in the future,
but i cant tell you exactly what is coming and when....
