3D Scanning System Brings Digital Characters To Life

The advent of advanced visual effects (VFX) has revolutionized the entertainment industry, fundamentally altering how we experience media. Central to this transformation is the use of high-speed 3D digital capture systems, which bring digital characters, objects, and environments to life in movies, television shows, and video games. Despite their transformative potential, these systems come with their own set of challenges. Traditional 3D head-scanning techniques like laser scanning or structured light demand that subjects remain immobile, potentially hindering film production.

Moreover, the complexity of these systems often necessitates professional engineering expertise for setup. To address these issues, Pixel Light Effects utilizes high-speed, high-resolution GigE Vision cameras in its 3D digital capture system, ensuring accurate and realistic volumetric scans for the VFX pipeline.
