Company Profile
CV Support limited has been dedicated to researching and producing of virtual tracking support equipment for many years. Our product line includes virtual tracking head, rails, and jib/crane. Virtual tracking is essentially the tracking of a camera. The virtual tracking equipment provides the real camera’s position and angle to server in real space. According to these data, the virtual tracking software combines the virtual scene with the real image to generate realistic video output with a mix of virtual and real elements. There are two types of virtual tracking solutions: trackless and tracked tracking solutions. Our company uses tracked tracking solution based on high-precision sensors.
Compared to other tracking solutions, tracked tracking offers the following advantages: Firstly, it is environment independent. Whether the lighting is bright or dim, or whether the image is obstructed, it does not affect the tracking data. The shooting angle range is determined by the support equipment and is unrelated to the external environment. Secondly, since the tracking data is obtained by collecting internal sensors, there is no need to set up additional equipment at the shooting site, which is precisely what most trackless tracking solutions require. The tracked tracking system has no special requirements for the site, making it easy to set up, and more adaptable. Thirdly, because tracked tracking equipment is a hardware device, the amount of computation required for tracking data is very small, allowing it to provide a set of tracking data for each frame in real-time, without time delay, and data drift. Compared to trackless tracking, tracked tracking equipment is more reliable. Finally, trackless equipment typically requires separate support equipment for the camera and during setup, the trackless equipment’s position and angle detection device needs to be tediously configured with the camera. In contrast, the tracked tracking equipment itself is the support equipment, and many parameters are already set during the manufacturing process, making the setup of tracked equipment more convenient.
As one of the earliest camera tracking solutions, tracked tracking has unique and irreplaceable advantages. Despite the continuous emergence of trackless tracking technology and solutions, tracked tracking equipment remains the first choice for users who pursue stability, efficiency, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.
VR Tracking head instruction
The CD20/CD15 VR tracking head is equipped with high-precision absolute angle sensors inside a high-quality fluid head, providing real-time camera angle data to the server. the system is also equipped with lens sensors and a full servo lens data reading interface, capable of collecting lens data from a variety of cameras and lenses, including broadcast-grade lenses, DV cameras, DSLR camera lenses, and cinematic lenses. Furthermore, the system supports real-time input and adjustment of pan/tilt position data, enabling the setting and transmission of camera position information to the server.
The TR50 virtual tracking rail, equipped with CD15 or CD20 VR tracking head , provides users with a camera position that moves in a straight line. The rail is designed to be lightweight yet strong, portable, and easy to install. The high-precision rail wheel sensors ensure that the tracking data of the rail system remains precise over long distances and large ranges ,regardless of the external environment . Additionally, The “Conical Cross Positioning Method,” allows users to quickly determine the position and azimuth data of the rail on-site, with tracking accuracy up to 1cm.
