Universidad Politécnica de Madrid bets on Mistika

The Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM) has decided to use the Mistika system for its research and creation of stereoscopic content.

Mistika is a system developed by the Spanish company SGO, for DI and 3D stereo work, which is having a great impact and expansion worldwide in the industry.

The Image Processing Group (dedicated to research on theory, methods and applications of digital image processing) has a Dem-3DTV (Three-Dimensional Television Demonstrator) for research, development and testing of equipment for the processing of audiovisual content that offers depth perception.

In this same context, the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism has created a Center for Production and Experimentation of digital content through Red.es and the UPM. Now, in addition to the Mistika 2K post-production system, the Image Processing Group has added Mistika Live, an application of the system for filming.

In this way, they intend the center to become a generator of stereoscopic content for universities, research centers, standardization organizations and audiovisual companies that need it.

Mistika software will be used for editing, compositing, color correction and finishing of the s3D content captured in the Demonstrator, generated using 2K cameras mounted on a rig, or compact Full HD cameras with dual optics.

Another objective is to train students and professionals interested in the study of problems in the generation and post-production of a stereoscopic signal, in a more experimental and complete way.

In 709 Media Room we have several courses for training in the Mistika system. If you are interested in them I recommend you to take a look at the one about Introduction and basicswhich will take place between February 25th and March 1st; the one of Color Correctionfrom the 4th to the 7th of March; 3D Stereoscopyfrom March 11 to 14; and lastly, that of Composition and effectsfrom March 19 to 22.
