The company's software development has added improvements to the virtual environment, adding the ability to use the 3Dconnexion mouse for true 3D flyovers in the shaded view. R26 is also the international debut of some new essential dimensioning tools - radial dimensioning, arc length, and a new protractor tool. The company says R26 gives you a solid platform of spreadsheet tools, improving the data experience and improving efficiency in creating paperwork. R26 has been designed to give the user a better experience on many planes - with a heavy emphasis on reports and presentation. WYSIWYG R26 is really virtually real, states the company. Should the line of sight be occluded (which is the primary mode of tracking), the inertial movement continues regardless and also provides X, Y, and Z parameters until the person(s) or object(s) come back into the line of sight.Īlso on display will be WYSIWYG R26, an overhauled and much stronger foundation with some impressive innovation. The system uniquely tags each beacon, on each moving object or person, so that each individual measurable set of data is discrete and completely distinguished from the next.īlackTrax has proven to work reliably even under the smokiest conditions on stage and uses redundant monitoring to track the people and objects you need to monitor, the company says. BlackTrax monitors the velocity of the object(s) in motion, as well as giving important spatial relationships between objects and people in a 3D space.
BlackTrax delivers streaming highly accurate tracking information for what the company calls six degrees of freedom - X, Y, and Z coordinates, plus inertial data for yaw, pitch, and roll. The patented BlackTrax system works by using a proprietary, and very small, IR LED beacon, which is placed on the moving object(s). The finale of the demonstration will be to set BlackTrax to work and engage it to follow a live performer as they move about the stand, along with the bowling ball.
Once each hour, the company will provide a full motion demonstration to show the speed and quality of the BlackBox communications. Throughout the day, the Raynok 3D system will maneuver a bowling ball, disguised as an emoticon, above the crowd while BlackBox tracks the flight path with a moving light. It is now possible to experience the abilities of BlackBox Live. The Raynok motion control system has been connected to BlackBox since its inception and, in the past, you've seen the concept in the virtual world.
and rigging systems manufacturer Hoist UK to bring a 3D performer flying system to the stand. To fully demonstrate the communications power of BlackBox, Cast invited entertainment motion control systems manufacturer Niscon Inc. BlackTrax is designed to work either on a stand-alone basis for the coordination of lighting, sound, or other position-sensitive moving objects, or with Cast's BlackBox system of multi-directional high-speed control coordination. BlackTrax is a hardware motion tracking system for streaming positional data for people and objects in real time. The PLASA Innovation Award-winning BlackTrax will be shown with a display whereby the entire booth will serve as a stage to show the full capabilities of the system.
CAST Software will offer three new products and what it says is an innovative product demonstration at Prolight + Sound in Frankfurt, Germany, 6-9 April, in Hall 9.0 Stand D70.
