The World's Smallest Professional 3D-HD Portable Recorder/Player
nano3D combines two nanoFlash recorders/players, for fully
synchronized stereoscopic recording and playback. It can also be used
for simultaneous off-line/online (high quality + proxy modes) or
redundant (2 identical masters) recording. The nano3D is an ultra
compact state-of the-art 3D combiner/recorder/player that uniquely
utilizes the very high-quality Sony XDCAM 4:2:2 CODEC to write native
Quicktime or MXF (video/audio/timecode) files onto affordable Compact
Flash media. nano3D takes all of the basic functionality of the
nanoFlash, and takes a giant leap further into the world of 3D video
processing and recording. Like nanoFlash, nano3D breaks new ground in
terms of weight, power, size, ruggedness, and ease of use. We are
confident you will agree that the video quality is visually
indistinguishable from uncompressed (at 100+ Mbps Long-GOP or 180+
Mbps I-Frame modes).
The nano3D is specifically designed for use with 2 cameras with SDI
out in order to record 3D material. It has two attached units. The top
unit is the master unit and the bottom unit is the slave unit. Each
unit has all of the functionality of a nanoFlash, but
the master unit has a 3D menu for setting up a 3D record. When 3D mode
is turned "Off" on the master unit, each unit functions exactly as an
independent nanoFlash unit. It is also important to note that in 3D
mode, recording can only be done in high definition. However, both HD
and SD recording can be done when 3D mode is turned off.
As a recorder, nano3D features dual HD-SDI inputs as well as a LTC
input for timecode. nano3D supports a wide range of video formats,
including 1080i60/50, 1080p30/25/24, and 720p60/50/30/25/24. I-Frame
only recording (up to 280 Mbps) guarantees that both the left and right
frames are processed identically, for superior 3D rendering. Finally,
up to 8-Channels of embedded audio per HD-SDI stream can be recorded in
uncompressed 24-bit 48KHz format, enabling full HD 5.1 or 7.1 program
creation.
As a playback device, nano3D offers the standard dual-stream
synchronized HD-SDI output. However, what really sets nano3D apart, is
the built-in combiner function which merges the left and right video
into one of the popular 3D formats such as side by side, top and
bottom, or line by line. The merged video is output over a single
HD-SDI cable for display on professional 3D monitors. Furthermore, the
addition of a low cost HD-SDI to HDMI converter enables the 3D HD-SDI
stream to be displayed on consumer 3D TVs. This is important, as a
large screen is considered essential for critical analysis of 3D
material.
