Hi, Alex!
For details on Ultimate R Memory Head call (818) 993-8007.
Memory Head is hardware – software combination used to record
in digital form (on 3.5" diskette) all camera movements and other parameters.
This information can be imported to 3D animation packages (including 3DS)
or used to repeat exact camera motion for another take. You can even work
in different direction: first animate camera in 3DS, then create ASCII output,
then make real camera move the same way as animated one.
It used to cost 50,000 for camera weights up to 35lb and 100,000 for heavier
cameras.
We used it for our "Dendy-new reality" animation, which won us Autodesk
Animation Contest.
