MulticamSysteme
MulticamSysteme is a term used to describe integrated multi-camera arrangements designed to capture video from multiple viewpoints simultaneously. It is used in media production, surveillance, automotive, and industrial inspection to improve scene coverage, depth perception, and redundancy.
A typical MulticamSysteme consists of several cameras, a synchronization and control unit, a central processing or
Synchronization aligns frames from all cameras in time, using hardware genlock, timecode, or network-based protocols. The
Variants include fixed multi-camera rigs for studios or sports venues, 360-degree capture arrays, dome configurations, automotive
Applications span filmmaking and live production, virtual reality and augmented reality capture, security and traffic monitoring,
Key challenges include precise multi-camera calibration, high data bandwidth, latency management, occlusion handling, and cost control.
