3ality Digital to Sell Best-in-Class 3D Camera Rigs

3ality Digital announced it will begin making its state-of-the-art 3flex camera rigs available for sale as part of the company's continuing effort to expand the creation and distribution of pixel-perfect live-action 3D entertainment. Developed using proprietary intellectual property, the rigs marketed under the 3flex name are engineered and manufactured to aerospace-level precision. When used with 3ality Digital's rig software controller (SPC) and Stereo Image Processing Systems (SIPS), the 3flex rigs will allow operators to capture nearly pixel-perfect live-action 3D footage.

3flex camera systems use sophisticated artificial intelligence to sense the environment and ensure the highest image quality. The systems feature automated setup and alignment to address color ramps, lens aberrations and geometric distortion. The systems also provides broadcasters and filmmakers with a full 3D metadata output package that is generated every six milliseconds.

3ality Digital will immediately begin taking orders for manufacturing, with expected delivery in late summer or early fall. The 3flex product line will consist of three rig models:

TS-2 Camera Rig System: 3D camera rig with beam splitter. The TS-2 accommodates zero to six inch inter-axial distance and features a fully motorized 3D camera rig with fast setup. This rig enables zoom tracking during shots. It is constructed with a lightweight, rugged carbon fiber body and offers full metadata output.

TS-3 Camera Rig System: 3D camera rig with side-by-side camera arrangement that is lightweight for use in situations where handheld rigs are required. The TS-3 offers the same functionality as the TS-2 using 3ality Digital controller and can, if necessary, be easily positioned or mounted on any rig from Steadicam to flying camera systems such as Spydercam or Cablecam.

TS-4 Camera Rig System: Versatile modular side-by-side camera system that will hold any camera and lens combination. The TS-4 is ideal for long-range shots such as vista views and stadium shots. The TS-4 offers the same ease of use, zoom tracking, metadata outputs and functionality as the TS-2.
