Stereoscopic 3D Production / 360° Film Production

Stereoscopy (often abbreviated to 'stereo') adds the extra dimension of depth to a moving image enabling the viewers to become immersed in the action. We are able to offer a range of stereo viewing solutions and content suitable for a single viewer to hundreds. We have installed stereo theatres, both permanent and temporary, the world over. Please check our news page and the projects listed on the left.

Inition has many years experience providing the latest stereoscopic content, hardware and customised solutions to our customers. In addition to our stereoscopic movie production facilities, we are able to provide a wide range of 3d display technologies. These include projected and small-screen stereo, viewed using active LCD shutter glasses, passive polarised glasses, both circular and linear or autostereoscopic (glasses-free) displays.

The stereo content can be generated in a number of ways: computer-generated (CG) or filmed live- action.

Rendered (CG) content can be generated from most 3D modelling and animation packages. Two separate animations are created, each rendered from a slightly different position. This technique is used where there is no interaction required. e.g. in stereo movie theatres, product promotion and architectural visualisation.

Filmed live action stereo content can be used in place of traditional (monoscopic) content to add depth and realism to any piece. Typically two video cameras are used to capture the left and right eye images. Inition has a wide range of experience supplying and using stereo video equipment, from stereo camera mounts to live on-site stereo preview systems.

The stereo video from both rendered and filmed pieces can be stored and played back in a variety of formats including interlaced, top/bottom, side by side, and dual stream, depending on the display devices used. Inition has developed a number of simple to use systems to help with the playback of stereo content the most popular of these is the stereo replay unit.

Inition's stereo replay unit (3d-VidBox) allows two streams of broadcast quality PAL, NTSC or HD video to be replayed. Multiple stereo video sequences can be loaded into a play list and played in response to an external event (i.e. pressing a play button or a person entering a room) or looped, all controlled via infra-red remote.
