INSPECTING WITH RIBCAGE

Here at Back-Bone we do a lot of inspection work on our electronic components and fabricated parts, so we put together a high magnification solution using our own modified GoPro cameras and high magnification C-Mount lenses. With ability to output at 1080p to a large screen it makes even the tiniest details easy to see in real-time. Pictured is a Ribcage… Read More

RIBCAGE 2.7K LOW LIGHT TESTS

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).

The default look has a purple hue, but tinting or desaturating the footage will easily give it the traditional night vision look as demonstrated in the video. Light source was a small IR LED panel powered… Read More
