- Gray scale image processing done within camera
- Marker position and size sent via ethernet
- Camera settings via ethernet
- External and video sync for all cameras
- Integrated IR LED illumination
- Adjustable power and strobe on LEDs
- Upgradeable firmware
- Back focus mechanism, ability to use C mount lenses
Applications:
- Motion capture
- Sports and medical movement analysis
- Virtual Reality
- Industrial applications
- 3D tracking of objects
- Research
The Sync Unit:
- Synchronizes all cameras
- Generate frame rates of up to 1000 FPS
- Sync to external video
- Sync to external sources
- Sync to multiples of video or external sources
- Embed events and triggers in data
- Handle up to 16 cameras
- Slaves to secondary sync unit for additional cameras
Accessories:
- Active markers, for tracking in difficult and industrial environments, for tracking multiple marker sets
- IR and high intensity IR LED options for unobtrusive tracking
- Custom length cables
- Choice of lenses, use 3.5mm to 20mm C mount lenses (SD3 model) or 8.0 mm to 50mm C mount lenses (SD13 model). The back focus mechanism allows numerous options
The Software Interface:
The software allows you to handle the entire camera system without detailed knowledge of the hardware. All camera settings implemented through function calls including:
- Frame rate
- Shutter speed
- Exposure modes
- LED power
- Sync source
- Gain
Images and synchronised data can also be retrieved from the DLL. You can obtain:
- Single images or image streams
- Retrieve data from selected cameras or entire system
- Data from a single exposure on all cameras
- Additional software for calibration, 3D extraction and tracking is also available.
Standard Deviation cameras are compatible with STT’s system for a complete motion capture suite, allowing:
- Outstanding 2 actor real-time performance
- Up to a 24 foot capture area with 6 cameras
- 6 high speed digital cameras (200 FPS)
- Expendable: just add more cameras
- Easy: learn in it in a day, know it in a week
- Affordable. less expensive than competitors
- Easy to master. learn to use it in a day
- Clean data: 50%-75% less cleanup than competitors’ systems
- Automatic biomechanical tracking method
