Abstract

U ovom radu opisana je metoda virtualne produkcije te su dani njeni slučajevi upotrebe. Proučeni su DMX protokol za upravljanje osvjetljenjem, ethernet protokoli za prijenos DMX podataka preko mreže, Art-Net i sACN i GDTF protokol za postavljanje svojstava uređaja u virtualnoj sceni.

Razvijena je simulacija osvjetljenja u Unreal Engineu kojom se upravlja slanjem DMX paketa korištenjem MagicQ simulatora konzole. Dolazni paketi su također bili snimani kao sekvence te su se mogli uređivati i reproducirati pomoću sekvencera. Za testiranje je korišten DMX Template projekt.

Simulacija se povezala s prototipom za praćenje kamere korištenjem HTC Vive sustava za virtualnu stvarnost i SteamVR aplikacije. Za snimanje videa HTC Vive Tracker je bio pričvršćen na mobitel te su se snimali objekti iz stvarnog života postavljeni ispred LED ekrana.

Abstract (english)

This thesis describes the method of virtual production and its use cases. The DMX protocol for lighting control, ethernet protocols for transmitting DMX data over a network, Art-Net and sACN, and the GDTF protocol for setting device properties in a virtual scene were studied.

A lighting simulation was developed in Unreal Engine that controls the sending of DMX packets using the MagicQ console simulator. Incoming packets were also recorded as sequences that could be edited and played back using a sequencer. The DMX Template project was used for testing.

The simulation was connected to a prototype camera tracking system using the HTC Vive virtual reality system and SteamVR app. For video recording, the HTC Vive Tracker was attached to a mobile phone, and real-life objects were placed in front of the LED screen.
