Jigsaw Systems, in association with South African designer Russ Bowden, will be demonstrating the new state-of-the-art 3D camera rig, which uses an onboard computer, coupled with Pro Rig software to calculate the correct interaxial and convergence settings - whether shooting stereoscopic 3D films using 35mm film, advanced digital cinema cameras or HD video cameras.
The rig also uses advanced motion control technology and robust hybrid stepper motors to set the cameras to their correct positions for optimum accuracy during operation. The onboard computer can be conveniently detached from the rig, allowing the computer to become a hand-held device.
The rig will soon be available with a wireless interface and joystick control to give outside broadcast units full on-the-fly 3D rig management for live action shoots.
