Back-Bone and Nat Geo Lions 360

Back-Bone — Thu, 03 Aug 2017 20:29:40 +0000

Don’t you hate it when lions eat all your cameras? We provided our Ribcage modified GoPro cameras and lenses to film National Geographic’s Lions 360 video, plus we were able to help in other ways. During filming several of the production’s stock GoPro cameras were actually destroyed by the curious lions. Rather than write them off, we had the production…

RIBCAGE AIR: 3D DATA & FLIGHTPATH RECONSTRUCTION

Back-Bone — Tue, 18 Oct 2016 13:42:07 +0000

With this fun project we used XYZ RGB’s Scannerkiller technology to extract and reconstruct an accurate flight-path and virtual camera from some of our drone footage. We used a Ribcage Modified Hero4 Black mounted on a 3DR Solo. Using only the video frames we are able to extract 3D models and camera positions. A virtual camera can then be created…

VR Mounts for your Ribcage Mod

Back-Bone — Sun, 12 Jun 2016 13:52:57 +0000

We’ve developed a series of mounts specifically for Ribcage Modified Hero4 cameras that allow one camera to be placed vertically (Entaniya 280), 2 cameras back-to-back or 3 cameras together in either vertical or horizontal configurations. These are perfect for capturing complete 360 degree videos with Entaniya or other super wide angle lenses. This sample footage was taken with our Ribcage 3X…

SHOOTING THE MOON

Jon Clouter — Wed, 11 Jun 2014 19:10:50 +0000

GoPro probably didn’t have this in mind when they designed the Hero3+ ! We finally had a chance to test out the Ribcage on our Telescope. These images and the video below were taken by attaching a c-mount to 1.25″ nosepiece adapter to our Celestron C6 750mm Newtonian Reflector telescope. No lens was used on the Ribcage. It’s great to…

RIBCAGE 2.7K LOW LIGHT TESTS

Jon Clouter — Thu, 29 May 2014 20:42:20 +0000

We’ve been getting a lot of requests from people wondering how the Ribcage performs in low light situations. We’ve shot a few examples here at 1440p (2.7k). Both videos were shot in the early or late evening, and also at dusk. The example above was shot entirely with our 2/3″ 16mm 5MP Ultra Low Distortion C-Mount lens at F2.0 (http://www.back-bone.ca/product/23-16mm-5mp-ultra-low-distortion/).…
