VICON EXTENDS BONITA FAMILY WITH VIDEO RANGE

Vicon, developer of motion capture products for the Life Science, Entertainment and Engineering industries is pleased to announce the launch of a new range within the Bonita product family - Bonita Video.

Bonita Video is the world’s first reference video camera designed specifically for motion capture. Combined with the world’s first dynamic calibration technique using the Vicon Active Wand, video and optical cameras can now be calibrated together providing unrivalled accuracy. As well as being fast and powerful like its optical siblings, it is also easy to use.

The Bonita Video range launches with three new cameras. The 720, available in colour or monochrome, has a fully synchronised frame rate of 120Hz that captures every detail in full HD resolution. The monochrome 480m will capture high speed movement with an impressive frame rate of 350fps.

Vicon’s Life Science software package, Nexus, has also been updated to support the new hardware.

Commenting on the launch, Vicon CEO Nick Bolton said, “We are delighted to unveil another new addition to the Bonita product range. Bonita Video is the first set of reference video cameras developed specifically for motion capture and with the introduction of the Active Wand, customers can now calibrate their video and optical data simultaneously, ensuring they capture every detail more accurately.”
