CORVALLIS, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, OptiTrack, the worldwide leader in 3D tracking systems, is bringing high-precision motion tracking outside with the release of the Versa^X line of motion capture (mocap) cameras. The new family of weather-ready IP-66 rated cameras expands OptiTrack’s portfolio of leading-edge mocap cameras, presenting customers with mocap cameras that not only protect against weather, but also feature a robust design to protect against dust, making Versa^X cameras ideal for manufacturing and other rugged settings.

The Versa^X family of cameras supports unrivaled customization. Multiple mounting solutions provide ease in any setup including factories, laboratories and other difficult environments. Versa^X also offers user changeable lenses with wide or narrow field of view lens options. To enhance performance further, Versa^X provides users with an attachable and detachable ring light and for added outdoor or harsh manufacturing protection, an environmental cover is also available.

“The Versa^X series of outdoor cameras introduces OptiTrack’s most adaptable camera and addresses a need in today’s market for more modular, rugged and portable motion capture solutions that are tailored to manufacturing and controlled environments,” said OptiTrack Executive Vice President Stephanie Hines. “Our newest cameras reinforce OptiTrack’s reputation of tracking movement with unprecedented precision, now making the highest quality motion capture possible in more environments than ever before.”

The latest additions to OptiTrack’s portfolio of motion tracking solutions include the Versa^X 22 (2.2 megapixels), Versa^X 41 (4 megapixels) and Versa^X 120 (12 megapixels), providing customers with IP-66 rated versions of the company’s premium Prime^X 22, Prime^X 41 and Prime^X 120 mocap cameras that feature the ultimate combination of industry-leading range and precision.

Each Versa^X camera operates with OptiTrack’s Motive motion capture software, enabling customers to track and capture the motion of small retroreflective markers and collect real-time motion data with industry-leading precision. With Versa^X’s durable, modular design, customers also benefit from simple and efficient transport and reconfiguration. This allows users to extend usability across a broad set of projects without additional purchases and helps ensure longevity even with frequent handling without sacrificing quality.

The announcement of Versa^X follows OptiTrack’s recent Corvallis, Ore. headquarters and manufacturing expansion. In Fall 2024, OptiTrack unveiled a new 25,000-square-foot manufacturing facility, doubling its production capacity to better meet global demand for high quality 3D tracking solutions. Designed and manufactured in Corvallis, Versa^X cameras meet the 3D tracking system leader’s highest benchmarks for durability, precision and performance. The cameras also meet the requirements of the Trade Agreement Act (TAA).

The new Versa^X outdoor mocap cameras are available now. For more information, visit www.optitrack.com/cameras.
