Image unfolds, used for applying photo realistic 2D images onto three-dimensional shapes, such as inflatable blimps, tents, awnings, sails, exhibition and architectural models, stage design, art, sculpture, packaging, etc., using our proprietary CAD and design software TouchCAD . The image is deformed over the 3D shapes, and on a pixel level to fit perfectly when assembled in physical 3D, creating perfectly matching panel joints, in an automated process.

Examples include:

-Full photo realistic image wrapping on a 48 x 20 meter airship using 1,680 vinyl patches with an average size of just under one square meter each. 798 megapixels. Production Team Production in Gosport UK.

-Removable photo realsitic image applied to an existing hot air balloon for Oscair AB in Täby. The printed image was 1.5 x 102.8 meters, with 345 megapixels per page, and applied to the balloon using Velcro. Print and production of Big Image in Täby.

-Photo realistic 3D billboards produced by ImageProps in Leeds and London, England. The three dimensional elements are mixed with regular 2D, emphasizing and highlighting certain parts of the billboard.

-Three-dimensional globe used for an exhibition stand by Sandvik Steel. The image was 218 square meters, divided into 25 panels. The printout was 107.344 x 2.802 meters. Print and production of Big Image in Täby.

3D paper portrait of the Swedish film actress Greta Garbo based on a photo realsistic 2D image.
