Chameleon Power Files Patent for ImageMapper Software

 

ImageMapper technology allows users to upload an image of their actual home project to participating manufacturers’ Web sites and preview a variety of products

 


(Novi, Mich. – XX, 2006)
– Chameleon Power has filed for a patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for its ImageMapper software tool, which allows users to virtually preview a variety of design and decor options will look like within their home. The ImageMapper technology was launched in October, 2005 and is available on several client Web sites and portals including GAF Materials (www.gaf.com), Crossville Tile (www.crossvilleinc.com), FlooringVision (www.flooringvision.com), FloorBiz (www.floorbiz.com) and many others.

 

Chameleon Power is the leading provider of visualization technologies to the home building and decorating industries. It provides photographic visualization solutions to dozens of manufacturers, builders, dealers, distributors, designers, roofers and portals. Its sister brands, such as BuilderVision and RemodelVision, are the leading Web based visualizers and selection centers for home owners, builders and remodelers.

 

To use, designers or homeowners download the ImageMapper software from any of the participating Web sites, map a photograph or drawing of their project and upload the image to the appropriate Web site. In just a few minutes, users map the image by tracing an outline of a floor or another part of a room and click the mouse on different product options to instantly see what they would look like in that room. Once the images are mapped and loaded, the user can decorate their project online with real products, save, print, enlarge and collaborate.

 

“This is a tremendous breakthrough for web-based visualization technology”, said Dan Dempsey, CEO of Chameleon. “This tool is the first and only solution that allows the homeowner, designer, contractor, and supplier to collaborate within the website environment, and during the website experience. We performed an exhaustive patent search over the last year before we filed this broad-based application.”

 

ImageMapper can be downloaded at many Chameleon client sites and portals and has been shipping since 2005. A professional version for the designer that includes many graphics tools and CAD interfaces will be shipping mid-2007. For more information, visit www.imagemapper.com or call (248) 380-9080.
