Looks like a cool product- last line of post they ask for other 
platform requests. :)

Still wish we had Photoshop....

>CompInt is now providing a free evaluation version of its
>revolutionary Photo4D-Lite 3D digitizing software.  The evaluation
>version is fully functional, e.g., you can use you own images to
>evalute all the features.  The only limitation is that "save" and
>"export" are not included.
>
>Photo4D-Lite allows you to construct accurate 3D models of existing
>objects using images. Photo4D-Pro, scheduled to be release at the end
>of Febrary, 1996,  can be used to capture 2D/3D motion from videos.
>
>Photo4D-Lite was designed to give users maximum
>flexibility and providing accurate results.  It contains a
>powerful algorithm that performs global optimization. It uses
>information from two or more photos to calculate the x, y, and z
>coordinates.  The algorithm can use many types of reference points and
>geometrical constraints to enhance accuracy and robustness. In
>addition, The algorithm can be configured to compute any or all of the
>following imaging parameters: camera location, look at direction,
>focal length, lens distortion, and aspect ratio error.  This
>eliminates the need for camera calibration and setup in most cases.
>You require no special cameras or other expensive equipment.  And you
>are free to capture objects of any size in any location.
>
>Best of all, Photo4D-Lite is affordable priced at just $99 US
>(PC/LINUX version). Take advantage of our introductory prices and
>incentives.  To find out more about Photo4D, or for information about
>how to obtain your free evaluation copy, visit our Home Page for at:
>www.igs.net/~compint/. Or you can contact us at compint@igs.net.
>
>This evaluation version of Photo4D-Lite is currently compiled for the
>following platforms:
>
>  - SUN SPARC (SUNOS)
>  -  HP700/800 (HPUX)
>  - PC (Linux)
>
>If you would like to evaluation Photo4D on other platforms, please
>Email us.
