gripment Support Systems, a
manufacturer of high-end camera
support systems and remote broadcast
solutions for the film and broadcast
industries, is looking forward to the
opportunity to meet its users at the
show and to discuss the latest in
Encoded Solutions for its
cranes, tracking dollies
and remote heads.

Digital Remote Heads
and the newly-announced
205/D Digital Remote Head,
as well as Egripment's latest
Xtreme T10 Telescopic Carbon

Encoding Solution
With the increasing demand for
Virtual Studios as well as use of
Augmented Reality, Egripment offers
a high quality encoding package
to be used with Egripment cranes,
remote heads, telescopic columns
and dollies for virtual and augmented
applications.
Virtually any axis can be used
in virtual reality by using optional
encoders, whether it is for use on a
crane dolly on track or a telescoping
column, in combination with the
superior Trackmen tracking interface,
Egripment delivers the answers for
demanding productions nowadays.
The Encoded Solutions from
Egripment deliver high quality and
reliable operation in a much more
affordable price range both for
sales and rentals, while maintaining
the same high standards for which
Egripment is known. The tracking
interface
provides
information
obtained from all measured axes via a

simple interface. The tracking data can
be easily integrated with the graphics
software of leading manufacturers
of virtual studio systems and
graphics systems. In addition to "livestreaming" of the Tracking Data to VRRendering machines the tracking data
that are synchronised with an external
time code can be recorded with an
external device to a file for later use in
animation software such as Autodesk®
Maya® or MotionBuilder®.
