Improved Motion-Tracking-Technology

Developed by Fusion Systems, the MC 3.0 uses passive stereo vision technology to track movements. Fusion Systems is an expert in the Auto industry, where the company uses this technology in smart cars to detect other cars and pedestrians for driver safety. Stereo-vision technology uses 2 HD cameras that act as a pair of eyes in order to detect and track movements in space. This method of motion tracking has several benefits over the previous MC 2.0 including:

• Improved performance in rooms with heavy sunlight and/or theater lighting.
• Higher 3d resolution than MC 2.0 for improved tracking of micro-movements.
• Automatic aperture allows MC to adjust automatically to different lighting conditions.
