The software application vSolution Link by WolfVision is designed to work with WolfVision Visualizers and cameras connected via USB or LAN to a Macintosh computer. The USB and LAN port (if available) of a WolfVision device can be used to capture and transfer pictures onto a computer. In this way the Visualizer/camera can be used as a scanner for 3-dimensional objects for your computer. Additionally the device can be controlled with the computer.
The application is a easy-to-use tool which offers the following features:
Image capture in different modes
Still Image:
Single image capture with selectable image resolution (from QVGA up to the native camera resolution) provided by the Visualizer
Continuous View:
Image stream with selectable image resolution (from QVGA up to the native camera resolution) provided by the Visualizer
Saving captured images in following image formats
Microsoft Bitmap Graphic (.bmp)
JPEG/JIFF Image (.jpg, .jpeg)
PC Paintbrush Bitmap Graphic (.pcx)
Portable Network Graphic (.png)
PBM Portable AnyMap Graphic (.ppm)
Raw RGB 24-bit Graphic (.raw)
Silicon Graphics IRIS Graphic (.sgi)
Tagged Image Format (.tif)
Auto saving images (filename, directory and file format are predefined) with configurable save trigger
Saves captured images if the user presses a shortcut key or a menu item/toolbar button
Saves captured images every x seconds (Timer mode)
Saves all single captured images without any user interaction
Saving a sequences of images as Quicktime movie file
Still image movie recording with two different modes. The image visibility duration is defined by one of the following values
Frames/second (0.01 to 50.00)
Milliseconds/frame (1 to 3600000 [corresponds to one hour/frame])
Adjustable detail level for the captured images
Off
Medium

Printing captured images
Controlling the Visualizer over an implemented remote control
Firmware update for almost every Visualizer model (except models VZ 8, VZ 8light, VZ 27, VZ 57 and VZ C10)
Full screen mode
Wide screen image format support for displaying, saving, printing and recording of captured images
The USB 2.0 port of a Visualizer/camera is also USB 1.1 compatible (reduced transfer speed when using USB 1.1).
Through the LAN port (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) the Visualizer/camera is also accessible over the Internet. The device has a built-in web server and can be accessed through the software vSolution Link or a standard Internet browser from a connected PC. (Firmware updates via LAN require vSolution Link). Supported protocols are: ARP, IP, UDP, TCP and ICMP.
