You are in
the Matrix!!
W
hile visiting Photokina, if someone
tells you that you are in the matrix,
then don’t be surprised. 3D-Viz.com
(Hall 4.1 Booth-A008) has set up something
that looks like a ring at the show, which allows
the visitors to enter a ring and get a 3D flash
clip of themselves. The image works on 3D
visualization which essentially sets up cameras
across the subject and records each frame,
which is then integrated to make a single flash
film, which can be uploaded on the internet
or various other platforms. The matrix ring is
popular for shooting products for shopping
the matrix ring has attracted a lot of attention at
the show this year.” Keresztes believes that this
is the future on the Internet and it is the 3D-era
that has provided his products an important
push.
Although this seems to be only the
beginning for this sort of vizualisation
technology, Keresztes is certain that in
about 2-3 years this technology will reach
a substantial level. The company is already
working with photographers around the world,
who are buying their products and in-turn
servicing the end clients. Apart from this
other clients like the Mail Order House in
Europe and several other clients have already
purchased the system. Apart from these the
company has also currently installed around 40
systems since its launch few months ago.
Like any good product 3D-Viz has its
share of copycats in the market, but Keresztes
is not worried about the same since he feels
that this only makes the matrix system more
popular. “There are some companies that have
purchased products that are cheaper from
our competitors, but when they want quality
and mass production, they turn to us at the
end of the day.” 3D-Viz.com works flexibly
and recognises that their systems might be
expensive to purchase, which is precisely the
reason why the company also has an option
to hire their services. The company is also
looking for distributors currently.

websites where the consumers can see the
360 0 view a product before purchasing it. The
photographers on the other hand use it to shoot
products and fashion material.
Marcus Keresztes, MD, 3D-Viz.com says,
“We started our company 11 years ago and the
idea was to present the products on the Internet
with a 360 0 angle of view. But it was only a few
years earlier that we developed the technology
and software to integrate everything together at
a much faster rate and in a more efficient way.
“We have been visiting Photokina for the past
10 years. But our new product, which is called
Vanguard comes with innovative
new camera bags, tripods and binoculars
