Thread:


Yes, I agree, it's intriguing.
 
On one side : 
- Buy a PS3, 
- Put linux on it ( perhaps it breaks games playability, I don't know ... )
- Use it for stitching
 
On the other side :
- A graphic card ( pixel shader 2 at least )
- Use it for stitching ( it accelerates photoshop too if you enable the
right check box )
 
It's more a matter of simplicity than performance.

Hello Alexandre,

>From a practical point of view, the PS3-rendering is more intriguing 
than the GPU approach.
Why?
1) First, i would have to buy an appropriate GPU (as many other 
photographers would have to). Besides the question, if your computer 
could be upgraded, there's already the price tag of 300-400 EUR for a 
decent GPU. This is near the price of a PS3.
2) If you can prepare your panorama on your main PC and send to to the 
PS3 for stitching, you can still use your computer for other things 
without performance degradation.

Best regards
Bernhard
