PECS Motion Control CG Integration

 

  • Save time and money
  • Plan your shots in advance
  • Conform moves to real world physical limitations
  • Modify moves on-set

 

PECS MoCo is a 3D camera and motion base simulator for real world mechanical rigs. It lets you convert your 3D camera and flight platform moves into data to drive real world physical robotic devices and vica versa.

PECS MoCo has been designed in conjunction with leading feature film Motion Control facilities to handle planning and on-set shooting.

 

  • Import previsualisation from any professional 3D animation package such as Maya, 3D Studio Max, MotionBuilder, Softimage, Lightwave, and more.
    Includes camera animations and lens data, 3D sets, and motion capture data.

  • Import and export your rig axis setups, kinematics parameters, and moves directly from/to your Motion Control operations software:
    Flair (Mark Roberts Motion Control) - other packages (coming soon).
    ANY HIERARCHICAL RIG IS SUPPORTED.

  • Design your own proprietary rigs.

  • On set calibration tools to match the position and orientation of your real rig.

  • Real Time Inverse Kinematics to "solve" the Motion Control Camera axis data from multiple 3D cameras.

  • Prevents your rig from exceeding real world kinematics (range, velocity, acceleration, and jerk).

  • Create In/Out points and preroll & post rolls within the MoCo rigs kinematics limits.
