Cara VR is a plug-in for Nuke that allows artists to create seamless 360° videos.
Cara VR comes with 4 core elements:
- The stitching tools combine the properties of the different cameras, calculate their focal length as well as distortion and bring the different sequences together into one uninterrupted 360° view.
- There are tools that create the colour balance of the different cameras and remove horizons to stabilise the footage.
- The compositing workflow allows artists to work in a spherical space to place digital elements correctly in the real world.
- A live review with the Oculus Rift headset is also possible to view the work directly from Nuke on the user platform.
Cara VR is available as a beta version. Anyone with a current Nuke licence or who downloads the 15-day trial version here can already try it out. Cara VR will be available in stores in the coming months.
