Simple R III is equipped with 16 bi-directional SDI I/O.
In its basic configuration, the Simple R III supports 662 mode for HD/SD resolutions: 6 recording + 6 search + 2 playback channels + FX.
The top configuration provides:
- For HD/SD SDI: Up to 7 recording channels + 7 search channels + 2 playback channels + FX
- For 3G SDI: 4 recording channels + 4 search channels + 2 playback channels + FX
Simple R III is the only server that can accommodate a second workplace. Two operators can simultaneously and independently work with 442 configurations (4 recording channels + 4 search channels + 2 playback channels + FX).
For exchange of clips and playlists between slomo.tv servers Simple R III is equipped with 1GbE network interface.
The Simple R III comes with Control Zx which can be replaced with Control ZR.
It is also possible to add an 8-channel, super high-speed USB 3.0 SD card reader (SDX option). SD cards are used for exporting and importing video materials, as well as for recording to H.264 Proxy or ProRes standards.

Mo-Sys VP Pro
What is Mo-Sys VP Pro?
Currently utilised by a growing pool of filmmakers, high-end broadcasters and developers, Mo-Sys VP Pro streams live tracking data from all Mo-Sys robotic and tracking hardware such as StarTracker and RoboJib. Mo-Sys VP Pro features a creative AR mode, an internal keyer and data recording with timecode stamp for FBX export, as well as many more virtual production features that empower your creative processes in the Unreal Engine.
High-quality camera tracking
Developed from our patented broadcast camera tracking system, StarTracker comes the film-orientated StartTracker VP. This optical tracking system looks at “stars”; which are small, identical retro-reflective stickers which are randomly applied to the studio ceiling or on the floor. A small LED sensor, mounted on the studio camera, shines light on the stars and remembers the constellation. This then reports the position and orientation of the studio camera in real time to the rendering engine.
Unrestricted Unreal Plugin
StarTracker VP comes with a plugin for Unreal and as such is not limiting you in your workflow. It allows you to tap into the raw power of Unreal, giving full flexibility and creative freedom. StarTracker VP was specifically tailored for virtual productions and VFX heavy filming – with many features that simplify VFX shots.
Post-production
Whilst allowing on-set visualization in real-time, as well as scene blocking in virtual worlds, StarTracker neatly provides timecode synchronization and an FBX export allowing you to efficiently drop the recorded data and footage into Maya and other post-production software.
