BlackTrax on the d3 Technologies booth
 
Giving projection designers complete freedom to move, BlackTrax was part of d3 Technologies’ booth main demonstration. Visitors were able to experiment with moving projection mapping in a unique and visual way. With BlackTrax realtime motion tracking integrated into d3′s extensive projection toolkit, d3 Technologies showed that with their upcoming Dynamic Blend feature, freely moving objects are seamlessly mapped with multiple projectors, automatically and in realtime.
 
I attended this year’s LDI in search of what’s new and innovative in the world of interactive technology. I may have hit the jackpot when I came across CAST BlackTrax tracking system at the d3 Technologies’ booth. The accuracy and precision of the realtime 3D positioning was very impressive. This could be the perfect solution for many of our upcoming immersive experience projects.

BlackTrax really showed the world that there is a robust and excellent solution for tracking of performers and scenery, not just for lighting but also for video. Their presence at the d3 booth was nothing short of stunning!
