The need
Nacon Tech wanted to add real physical controls to its motion capture VCam, better suited to the camera operator’s work than the tubes of the original rig.
The response
Two handles equipped with programmable buttons and joysticks, paired with a receiver enclosure. The camera operator can directly control Unreal Engine parameters such as focus, aperture or action triggers from the VCam.
We helped Nacon Tech define the functions useful to the camera operator and how to integrate them into the existing rig. We then designed and developed the complete system: handles, receiver enclosure, electronics, 3D printing and communication with Unreal Engine.
In use
The camera operator adjusts the virtual camera’s focus, aperture and actions using the buttons and joysticks built into the handles.
