Ricoh releases "Dark Scene Mode" to brighten dark environments.

【News 2024/5/13】Brightening dark 360-degree images with AI! Dark Scene Mode added to RICOH 360 Premium Package.

◆ Enhancement of RICOH360's Features with "Dark Scene Mode" On April 16, Ricoh announced the launch of a new feature called "Dark Scene Mode," which brightens 360-degree images taken in dark environments. This feature will be available as a media management option in the "RICOH360 Premium Package." "Dark Scene Mode" utilizes AI technology to provide image correction capabilities that allow users to understand the situation clearly with bright and clear images, even in dark settings. ◆ 360-Degree Image Technology Addressing the Construction Industry's "2024 Problem" In light of the "2024 Problem" in the construction industry, where penalties will be imposed for exceeding overtime limits, the use of remote-controlled 360-degree image technology for on-site surveys and progress checks in construction management is on the rise. However, there have been complaints that "the images are too dark and hinder the verification process." Ricoh's Dark Scene Mode was developed to address the issue of "image darkness." With this release, it will now be possible to confirm situations with clear images even in dark environments, eliminating the need to physically visit the site. This is expected to improve the efficiency of progress checks at construction sites.
