Vicon's latest flagship Valkyrie solution and proven Sh gun
software to power Croatian motion capture studio
Oxford Metrics plc (LSE: OMG), the smart sensing software
company servicing life sciences, entertainment, and engineering
markets , is pleased to announce that Vicon, a world leader in
motion measurement, has won a contract with Digital Kinetics, to
deploy Vicon's world-leading Valkyrie solution in combination with
Vicon's proven Sh gun software platform.
Based in Zagreb, Digital Kinetics' motion capture stage boasts
300 square metres of studio space and is now fully equipped with 24
Vicon Valkyrie 26MP cameras to ensure the highest quality capturing
results for its growing client list across the gaming and film
industries. With the combination of the Valkyrie cameras and Sh
gun, Digital Kinetics can offer services right across the
production process. The new stage is fully capable of delivering
the very best motion capture and virtual production services,
available to both the local and international entertainment
industries.
Launched in 2022, the VK26 is the flagship model of the Valkyrie
range, offering 26MP resolution across an amazing field of view. It
has been specifically designed for highly demanding applications,
including full body and high-resolution finger performance capture,
virtual production, and In-Camera VFX (ICVFX) for AAA films and
games.
Veselin Krstovski, Mocap Producer at Digital Kinetics, said: "As
a new, but rapidly growing studio, having the latest technology is
vital to us. It allows us to address more complex projects, opening
lots of new opportunities for our business. I don't think there is
anything that we can't do with the Vicon system - it tracks our
actors in incredible detail, produces exceptionally clean data, and
the support from Vicon is second to none."
Nick Bolton, CEO of Oxford Metrics said: "As the visual effects
sector continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in
motion capture, increasingly, filmmakers and game designers need
technologies that truly sense and capture every dimension of their
subjects more accurately to real life. With Valkyrie and Sh gun,
Digital Kinetics is offering truly state-of-the-art services from
day one. Demonstrating the advantages of innovative technology like
Valkyrie, Digital Kinetics have already reported lightning quick
production times - which is enabling them to rapidly meet their
client demands. We wish the team luck and look forward to seeing
what they achieve as one of our first Valkyrie users."
