In-venue capture

In-venue capture

We record the action with a set of small synchronized sensors distributed around the venue. This data is stored as a series of color images from each sensor capturing the exact same moment.

Estimating Shape and Appearance with Radiance Fields

Estimating Shape and Appearance with Radiance Fields

From these images, we estimate the flow of light through the captured area as a Radiance Field. We do this for each moment in time, and store the field as "splats". This captures both shape and appearance of what's in the scene, even as appearance can change based on where you're looking from.

The Arcturus Advantage

The Arcturus Advantage

Arcturus is the only provider that can deliver broadcast quality in real-world venues where rigging is moving, lighting is changing, crowds are swarming, sensors are being jostled and occluded. Our custom calibration, learning supervision and venue-specific tuning delivers higher-quality results with greater range of motion from far fewer cameras than other 4D approaches.

The Ultimate Camera

The Ultimate Camera

From this flowing radiance field we can compute new images from any point in space, looking in any direction. This lets us take viewers onto the field and into the action, where no physical camera could go, even showing an athlete's POV. It's the ultimate SpiderCam.

Interactive 3D experiences and data products

Interactive 3D experiences and data products

With a full 3D copy of the game, we can also let coaches, analysts, or viewers explore the action themselves on interactive devices like phones, tablets, consoles, and AR/VR headsets. And we can derive data about the players and game, such as locations, motion, and forces on the players and equipment.
