History

Visere Captura has a rich history in software development. Initially, developed by DMMD in 2002 as a versatile image viewer and editor named Visere, it later evolved into White Cap, an FDA-approved medical image X-ray processing software. In 2013, it transformed into Iconasys’ Shutter Stream software. Finally, in 2024, it became the current Visere Captura software, maintaining the original Visere name but adding the name Captura to highlight the integration of the camera controls.

Comparison with Shutter Stream

If you’re an existing Iconasys customer, you might be wondering whether upgrading to Visere Captura is worth it. If you’re new to our software, you may be deciding whether purchasing from Pictomic is a better choice than Iconasys.

To help you make an informed decision, we’ve outlined key reasons why Pictomic is the better choice in both cases, along with a comparison table below highlighting the differences between the two software packages.

• DMMD (a Pictomic mother company) is the original development team behind Iconasys' Shutter Stream.
• Due to differing visions for Iconasys' future, the technical team separated from Iconasys in April 2024 and formed Pictomic.
• Our Pictomic team is passionate about the technology. We are experts in image and signal processing, hardware, and software, and are driven by our love for innovation.
• We are actively developing Visere Captura, focusing on incorporating more artificial intelligence algorithms and expanding hardware support.
• With an upgrade to Visere Captura, Pictomic will honor any remaining Iconasys warranties.

Ultimately, the decision to upgrade from Shutter Stream to Visere Captura is yours. We believe the benefits make it a worthy consideration.
