Now you see it / Now you don’t – using panorama images to detect construction mistakes
The carpentry foreman strongly suggested I make a note of where all of my electrical boxes were. I say; “yeah, sure.” I guessed I’d remember where all of my network, speaker, and video boxes were located. But, I took pictures just the same. Good thing too. I was checking progress this morning after the interior sheetrocking was finished in yesterday’s marathon session. Most things looked right. I found some more thrashed, trashed, and “beyond-repair wires that we will need to discuss but otherwise things looked right.
I also checked out “the BIG room”. It looks huge as befitting its volume. One thing seemed odd. Why would I install a network box without an electrical outlet near by. I had consciously done that in two places so perhaps this was just one more. I was almost ready to accept it until this evening when I was uploaded the latest images. I went back 2 weeks and found the photos of my work. And THERE IT WAS ! … an electrical outlet box 16 inches over from my network box. It’s in the framing photos but not the sheetrock photos. I guess I had better check the whole building now …
In case you can’t find anything in these little panoramas or even the marginally larger ones when you click, just know that the originals are around 60 megapixels.



Excellent tool, Glen. I should take a picture of the house and office on Sunday when it is all neat and RTG. Then, on Wednesday, I could refer to the picture to find things like the couch, or those papers I put on the desk to deal with, or the laptop which is located…somewhere.
Maybe take a picture every day. Then, at the end of the next day…
Like the restore function on the computer.
