Panasonic ET-SWR10G09V Software License is a 9-month license for the ET-SWR10 Real-Time Tracking Projection-Mapping Software Development Kit. Merging analog movement and digital content, ET-SWR10 expands creative possibilities for immersive sensory experiences, interactive exhibitions, and more.

Combined with a compatible projector, such as the Panasonic PT-RQ35K or PT-FRQ60 Series, this ready-to-use SDK (Software Development Kit) enables projection of animated content onto fast-moving objects at up to 240 frames per second with less than 5 ms input-to-projection latency. Image position updates continuously to match the object, tracking its motion smoothly with no apparent delay. More than a giant leap forward in display performance, the system is also easier to install, integrate, and operate.

Merge moving objects with projected content. Combined with a compatible projector, this exclusive technology converts object marker location to projector XY coordinates. Image position syncs to marker position with less than 5 ms latency. From a dancer’s fluid motions to rapidly moving objects, tracking performance is utterly convincing.

The system does not require painstaking calibration associated with active-sensor systems—just install the SDK on your content server and connect a compatible IR emitter and camera to begin. Calibrate marker location with projector XY coordinates once, and projected content will remain in sync with almost any fast-moving object.

A real-time tracking projection-mapping system incorporating ET-SWR10 would comprise a compatible Panasonic laser projector, such as the PT-RQ35K or PT-FRQ60 Series, an IR emitter, an IR camera, and a PC content server with SDK installed. This PC connects all devices and can be configured as a monitoring terminal for the projectionist.

Performers can move freely and have content react to them instead of having to rehearse and memorize movements to match pre-produced content.

Members of the public can participate in an installation, interacting with content without any preparation or knowledge of how the system works.

Choose an object to track. This can be an item covered in material that reflects infrared light or a special device that emits infrared light. Next, set the object in motion. Infrared light from an IR emitter (or from the IR-emitting object) is either reflected back or sent directly to a camera. Software installed on a content server receives data from the connected camera and uses it to determine the object's position. It converts this information into an XY location and sends it to the projector. The object's position is updated 240 times per second, allowing projected digital content to appear on and follow the object with unrivalled precision and with no apparent delay for extraordinarily clear and smooth reproduction performance.

This flexible real-time tracking and projection-mapping system can be used in conjunction with Panasonic ultra-short throw and short throw lenses for compatible 3-Chip DLP laser projectors, including ET-D3LEW200 Short Throw Zoom Lens, ET-D3LEU100 Ultra-Short Throw Lens, and ET-D75LE95 Ultra-Short Throw Lens, in the context of a ceiling or floor-mounted short throw installation. IR emitter, IR camera, and projector can be installed separately with IR equipment located at screen center and projector mounted on the ceiling or floor very close to the screen, allowing projection designers to create highly immersive interactive exhibits in tight installation spaces where performers or viewers can approach close to the screen without casting a shadow.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What is the largest screen size I can get with this lens?

A: Depending upon the Panasonic projector this is fitted to, this lens wlil deliver an image diagonal (WUXGA 16:10) pf 442 from a throw distance of approximately 21'. That would be an image 375 wide by 235 high.

Q: 2. can this Canon hood accommodate one or more filters when used with the EF-S 55-250 IS lens?

A: The hood does not interfere with the filter threads on the lens. It attaches to the bayonet flanges on the outside edges of the lens front.

Q: 3. How many computers/cameras can one software download be used with? Can one computer run this software for multiple cameras?

A: A single camera can connect to a single PC only.

Q: 4. It looks like this item has a few issues. Will it stay in place? Does it cover the focusing sensor and flash? Does the clamp on the front (screen panel) side cause actions to be taken as if the screen is being touched? It may be time to return to the engineering/drawing table?

A: It definitely has issues, one being that it doesn't stay where you put it. There's also the fact that you really need to put the phone on a tripod when using the lense.

Q: 5. At what distance or zoom level can this software track smoothly? If the camera is about 70 feet from a speaker on stage will it be able to follow the speaker smoothly at those zoom levels?

A: Panasonic does not list a specific zoom distance, however in this case the important information is how much real estate does the face take up on the screen. From the photo on our website and additional photos on Panasonic's website the face does not have to take up that much of the screen, which would indicate you can have a camera pretty far back and still work. https://bit.ly/2MjD2Ch

Q: 6. When is the expiration date for this product? Thank you

A: As long as they are kept at room temp, they will be good for years. They work well for underwater pics...but deliver horrible terrestrial photos.

Q: 7. Will this work on the new Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM Lens?

A: This lens hood is not for the RF 100-400. According to Canon's website, this is the appropriate lens hood. https://bhpho.to/3zdYY8l

Q: 8. Will this lens hood fit my canon 24mm - 105mm 77mm wide angle lenss?

A: Upon testing, unfortunately this will not work on the Canon 24-105mm lens, EF or RF.

Q: 9. Does it work with Weebill S

A: No, the Feiyu AI Intelligent Tracking Module for Select Gimbal is only compatible with the Feiyu Vimble 3/3E and Vimble 4/4SE gimbals.

Q: 10. Can I fit this hood on the lens when using 55 mm screw in filters?

A: The Canon ET-60B Lens Hood is not a screw on hood.
