INTRODUCTION
Follower is a revolutionary system that integrates camera, people and object tracking. It brings virtual
graphics to the real world by turning them almost into physical objects and resolves the long-lasting
problem of natural interference between the talent and graphics. Follower allows presenters to interact with
the graphics in various ways. The presenter can stand in front of the object by combining a people tracking
system with a greenscreen. More dynamic shots can be created by pushing, rotating, or changing the
position of the graphics in real time, live on set by using object tracking. It works by attaching LED beacons,
smaller than a fingernail, to objects or people whose position and orientation to be tracked or by attaching
hardware add-on called Spyder to your camera.
It is possible to use this system indoors as well as in bright sunshine outdoors which makes it perfectly
reliable in all of its many unique options.
