PhotoModeler is the base product. PhotoModeler Automation adds coded targets and project automation. PhotoModeler Scanner contains all the capabilities of PhotoModeler and PhotoModeler Automation, and adds scanning and dense surface modeling (along with the Idealize module as well).

Thoughts:
$995 - $2695 American dollars, is a fairly affordable price for a company to pay. In comparison Cad licenses cost upwards of $10 000. I would however think that Cad programs would be more helpful to a firm than software such as this. This software is interesting and could be used in the architectural world but it is not necessary, Cad programs are. Very few students are learning to hand draw now days as it is simply outdated. Firms who choose not to use Cad programs will find it very hard to find staff and this is only going to get harder. By the looks of the images on this page complex models are possible. I wonder how much training/practice is required to produce models like that.
