Volumetric Capture-how to do it yourself

Perhaps I saw many images of a large Volumetric Capture Studio studio, but I thought it was impossible to capture the volumetric video myself. You are wrong. It is also wrong to think that a lot of expensive hardware is needed. To capture Volumetric video for less than $ 1000:

Hardware of Volumetric Capture

First, it is important to check the performance of the PC. You can get away with less power, but the WINDOWS 10 operating system is recommended. CPU is Intel®Core ™ i9 – 3.0 GHz or higher, 16GB RAM, SSD, NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1080 series or higher. This will give you the best results with Volumetric Capture.

Than you need to get two sensors. You can choose from Azure Kinect , Kinect version 2, or Intel RealSense . If you're using the latest Azure Kinect, it's recommended that you get two 5 meter long extension cables, since Azure originally came with a 1.5 meter cable. I found that one of these specifics works well: a link . For the cable, you also need two normal US power extensions that are at least 5 meters long

Perhaps you are doing a Volumetric Capture of a person. Since we are quite tall species, we need to lift the sensor high. We recommend using two light stands: Link . Add two clamp ball head mounts: link and two screw ball head mounts: link .
And the last thing you need for volume capture is one cardboard box (for multi-marker calibration): Link

Most of these items are already in your home or office. How to capture Volumetric Capture? Now you know and it should all be under $ 1000. You are now ready to have your own Volumetric capture studio. The last thing you need is an EF EVE ™ subscription. Business subscriptions come with automatic calibration, improving accuracy and saving you a lot of time. If you are looking for a realistic Volumeric video, you should choose this. Pro subscriptions have manual calibration. So if you don't need very real images and want to use VFX, this is also a good choice.
