IO Industries Inc. develops market-leading specialty video cameras, designed with the needs of VR/AR/XR content generators in mind. Whether it’s a pair of cameras in a 3D stereoscopic rig, a handful of cameras for a 360° VR configuration, or an array of over 100+ cameras set up for volumetric video capture, IO Industries cameras have the features and flexibility it takes to make these configurations happen.
With volumetric capture, many precisely-synchronized cameras surround a person and capture a performance from many angles. The recorded video is processed through reconstruction software, which results in a 3D avatar of the performer - a solid, moving model of the performer which can be viewed freely from all angles.
A new Volucam model is now available featuring the 9MP Gpixel GMAX2509 global shutter image sensor.
This brings a new capability to the Volucam series for recording 4K/UHD video at up to 120fps. With a resolution of 4224x2160 pixels, maximum frame rates are 120fps (8-bit), 100fps (10-bit) or 85fps (12-bit). This sensor is part of the same family as the higher-resolution GMAX0505 (in our 262G41 Volucam model). It shares the same 2.5μm global shutter pixel design, which leads to an optical format of 2/3" (11.9mm diagonal), matching well with a variety of C-mount lenses.
The Volucam camera series has seen such a strong interest since its introduction earlier this year.
The first volumetric capture production studio using these cameras, Avatar Dimension, is now operational and delivering content to their clients - check them out!
