Ncam has launched the next generation of its connection box that links its camera tracking bar to a server.

The Mk2 Connection Box is lightweight and silent and eliminates the need for a server to be attached directly to the camera.

Nic Hatch, CEO of Ncam said: “No one wants to be tied down when they are getting their shot. With the Mk2 Connection Box, you just put it on your camera or belt, link it to your server with a lead tether, ethernet or fibre, and your capture space is basically unlimited. There’s nothing else like it.”

Ncam’s Ncam Reality real-time camera tracker has been used on projects including Star Wars and the Super Bowl to visualise photorealistic graphics in real-time. The company’s customers include Amazon, CNN, Disney, ESPN, Netflix, the NFL and Sky TV.
