The Mill BLACKBIRD is what it is, what kind of CG can be produced by using this, you can see by seeing the following movie.

The Mill BLACKBIRD - YouTube


The Mill BLACKBIRD running out from the garage.


These cars often appear in movies and commercials ... ...




The Mill BLACKBIRD is able to produce this scene without running a real car.


Of course, "taking a picture without using a real car" has already been done, for example, a contact scene of a car chase, like this, using a car for composing ... ...


It is made in the form of hitting the CG of the target car afterwards.



With this method, once you take a picture, you can change the color of the car freely.



In The Mill BLACKBIRD, technology is a step further. The base is one, but by changing the wheelbase, it is possible to correspond to various kinds of vehicles.


Also, wheels and suspensions can be installed by any manufacturer.



It can be turned into any car.






Furthermore, by programming the driving characteristics, it is also possible to make features of each car model.





The appearance when shooting is like this.


In fact, The Mill BLACKBIRD is deciding a cool turn. At this time, it seems that even data such as "What kind of shadow will this car model come out" will be offered.



The data provision is realized by a camera mounted on a car and a laser scanning system.




I am building and understanding the surrounding environment of the car in a virtual manner.


Thanks to that, you can also say "virtual experience in the car".




Even if it is The Mill BLACKBIRD in front of you, you can see the figure wearing a power.


As mentioned above, since the base corresponds to every type of car, we only synthesize CG of your favorite car.


For that reason, you can also perform tricks as colors change one by one while running.
