Testing

IKTrix is constantly improving its software and services. The following test demonstrates the accuracy and unique abilities of IKTrix Impulse. This move traces a rig mounted laser around the edges of a box with a hold on each corner.

Cooking a Pancake With a Laser

The move was achieved by measuring the pancake's position using the rig. A virtual pancake and move was then created in Maya. IKTrix Impulse was used to previs and export the move back to the real rig.

The footage was taken with a Canon digital camera stuck to the rig head with the same plasticine used in Aardman's Oscar winning films. In a slightly more hi tech approach the laser was mounted in the roll ring.
