AVATAR DIMENSION’S NEW “TO GO” STAGE BRINGS 3D HOLOGRAPHIC CAPTURE TECHNOLOGY DIRECTLY TO CLIENTS
Company Grows Operations to Meet 3D Volumetric Capture Technology Demand Across Eastern US
WASHINGTON, DC, April 7, 2022 – Avatar Dimension, the only certified Microsoft Mixed Reality Capture Studio on the East Coast, is now making its high-tech, 3D volumetric capture stage available to customers at their locations. Previously, most capture sessions had to be conducted in-studio, of which there are just a few worldwide.

“In the past year, we’ve been asked so many times whether we could set up our volumetric stage in customer locations, but we had to say – sorry – because given the amount of equipment needed, it didn’t seem practical,” says Dennis Bracy, CEO of Avatar Dimension. “Our team, however, figured it out, and we just completed a massive project of 1,000 captures on-location in New England. Bringing our volumetric capture stage directly to clients opens the door for the many businesses who are interested in growing their audience reach with innovative, mixed reality experiences, but need the capture session to come to them.”
Avatar Dimension’s transportable stage brings the same technology featured in its physical studio in Washington D.C., but directly to sound stages and locations anywhere in the Eastern US. This includes Microsoft’s best-in-class capture and rendering pipeline along with 70 12-megapixel Volucam cameras from IO Industries for the best captures and most realistic fidelity. The cameras simultaneously capture the action at scale and then video files are merged, leveraging the power of Microsoft Azure, to create three dimensional holograms that are then placed into locations, narratives, games and experiences.
Avatar Dimension officially opened the doors to its volumetric capture studio in the Washington D.C. area in June 2021. It is today the only certified Microsoft Mixed Reality Capture Studio on the East Coast, and just one of eight in the world. Some of its recent projects include:
Score the Shot Covid PSA - Sports Media Challenge and Avatar Dimension teamed up with Hall of Fame college basketball coach Dawn Staley and esteemed player Aliyah Boston, both of the top-ranked NCAA women’s basketball team, the South Carolina Gamecocks, for a holographic PSA that encouraged Generation Z (Gen Z) to get vaccinated for Covid.
