Add face tracking to your HeadPLUS v2 or HeadPLUS v2 PRO automated video head with the Vision Module from edelkrone. The Vision Module is a great solution for raising your production value with motion shots when you have a small or one-person crew. The module connects to the head to provide accurate, automatic facial or object tracking with a single tap using the companion edelkrone iOS smartphone app, and the head will smoothly follow the subject. It can also provide live, wireless video monitoring for your entire crew, supporting multiple mobile devices.
The module can track faces using automatic one-tap tracking, or you can select up to three faces on a screen and select them as you record live to change the tracking subject. It can also be used to follow arbitrary objects in the camera's field of view. The module can take advantage of the low-light capability of your camera's sensor to maintain tracking accuracy in challenging light conditions. It powers using the battery bracket from the HeadPLUS, and power and video pass through the module to the head. There is also an HDMI loop output to add a local monitor.
The Vision Module adds smart, responsive, and fully automated camera movements to your production that make working with moving subjects easier than ever. It instantly locks on to the face you select with a single tap from your edelkrone app and tracks its movement utilizing the motorized mechanism of HeadPLUS v2 or HeadPLUS v2 PRO. It flawlessly connects and communicates with your entire edelkrone ecosystem to make your workflow even more efficient.
Note:
The module comes iOS ready and Android support will be available in the near future.
Arbitrary Object Tracking
The Vision Module is designed and optimized for face tracking, and it can also be used for arbitrary object tracking in suitable scenarios, which gives you more options to explore your creativity. The intuitive interface of the edelkrone app makes setting up non-facial tracking very easy.
Live Feed from Your Camera
When combined with HeadPLUS v2 or HeadPLUS v2 PRO, the Vision Module allows you to see what you're tracking through Vision mode as well as Keypose and Target modes using the edelkrone app. The Vision Module can also be used on its own for video transmission from your camera to your mobile device without the need for any additional equipment.
Note:
The reliability and quality of the live feed will depend on your network connection.
Instant and Advanced Face Tracking
The Vision Module offers the fastest and most intuitive way to track any face that appears on the screen. Just tap "Instant Face Tracking" on the edelkrone app and start filming. The advanced features of the Vision Module include the ability to introduce up to three faces in the edelkrone App and easily switching between them as you film. The face introduction process only takes a few seconds and the Vision Module continues to track faces even if they move in and out of the frame.
Adjustable Framing for Cinematic Results
You can adjust the offset coordinates of your subject inside the camera frame using the edelkrone app to achieve cinematic framing with the Vision Module.
Portable Monitors for You and Your Crew
Just like the rest of the edelkrone ecosystem, HeadPLUS v2 or HeadPLUS v2 PRO setups with the Vision Module can be controlled from a single mobile device at a given time. Multiple devices on a shared network can connect to the same Vision Module to view the live feed directly from your camera. Depending on your Wi-Fi network quality, you can connect more than five mobile devices to Vision Module. This live feed feature works with edelkrone's free app and gives you the option to have several portable "monitors" for your crew.
Accurate Tracking in Challenging Environments
Unlike other products on the market, Vision Module taps directly into your camera's HDMI feed to provide sensitive tracking. Vision Module utilizes the image sensors of your camera to provide perfect tracking, even in typically challenging low light settings.
Note:
The sensitivity of the Vision Module's tracking ability will depend on the specifications of your camera.
New Features for Your edelkrone Motion Control Systems
The Vision Module was designed to unlock new and advanced features for your setup while staying true to edelkrone's innovative vision. A HeadPLUS v2 or HeadPLUS v2 PRO is required to bring the face and object tracking system to life, but the addition of edelkrone Sliders, Dollies, and Jibs can provide you with even more possibilities when filming.
By adding the Vision Module to your edelkrone setup, you can create the ultimate one-person crew to assist you when filming. The dynamic shots you create can easily trick your audience into thinking you had an entire crew of professionals helping out behind the scenes. It is a great solution for any filmmaker, videographer, content creator, YouTuber, Twitch streamer, or anyone who wants to add effortless and responsive movements to their shots.
