Automating Creativity: Intuitive integration of industrial cobots for table-top cinematography

在一个对视频内容的需求急剧上升的世界里，越来越多的初创制作公司比以往任何时候都要合并，我们认为，在工作室设置中专门从事产品电影摄影的制作中，经济实惠的运动控制解决方案的预见存在差距。机器人自动化使电影制片人能够制作出精确且可重复的镜头，这些镜头有可能创造出令人惊叹的独特视觉效果，然而，进入的障碍是昂贵的，并且在技术上具有挑战性。我们希望利用通用机器人的可负担性与直观的控制软件相结合，使这项技术能够为非技术创意专业人士所用。我们将开发定制的机电一体化硬件，以将机械臂与生产设备集成在一起，并开发本地UR应用程序，以实现对控制序列的快速轻松更改。我们希望构建一个适用于全球小型生产公司的软件和硬件包，使每个人都能更轻松地创建运动控制镜头。

In a world where the demand for video content is rising dramatically and more start-up production companies are incorporating than ever, we feel there is a disparity in the prevision of affordable motion control solutions for productions that specialise in product cinematography in studio settings. Robotic automation allows filmmakers to create precise and repeatable shots that have the potential to create stunningly unique visuals however, the barrier to entry is costly and technically challenging. We want to utilise the affordability of the universal robots combined with intuitive control software to make this technology accessible for non-technical creative professionals. We'll be developing bespoke mechatronic hardware to integrate the robotic arm with the production equipment, as well a native UR app to enable quick and hassle-free changes to the control sequence.Building a software and hardware package that is affordable for smaller production companies around the world, we hope to make the process of creating motion control shots more accessible for everyone.
