The moco experts down under at Robotface released a great video demonstrating the MRMC Tracker App in action. Until now, Robotface used the app for only tracking cameras but was also keen to test out its ability to be useful in tracking other movements also related to a shot.

Traditional camera tracking systems add complexity and often has ongoing costs. Using X-Y tracking is a cost-effective alternative and has been built in to our product range, including the TRH-1 Track Robotic Head.

While MRMC continually expands on their product range, the QRS (Quiet Rail System) has always been a favourite among customers who are attempting a more creative production, and to provide their viewers with a more appealing and engaging experience

AFP, who has a partnership with Nikon, installed the Z 9 for the first time in MRMC’s underwater robotics. By operating it in conjunction with the remote-control Nikon NX Field, impressive underwater photography was taken.

When it comes to the Nikon Z9, the important bits are there, 8K, 12 BIT RAW, live 10 BIT HDMI output and Genlock, which I think is unique in a mirrorless camera like this.

The partnership with Cgagns represents an exciting time for MRMC as it seeks to further embed its solutions within virtual and studio production in Singapore and beyond.
