Computer Animators and Technical Directors look at www.nemotion.com a product for production enhancement using a specialized hardware controler for 3D packages. Instead of working only with the mouse, you have a haptic device for speedup of the animation work. Timelines are controlled by jogs and parameters by wheels or optional motorized sliders. Nemotion works with MAYA, 3ds Studio max, Cinema 4D and Virtools. Soon other packages (Premiere 6(partitially), Filmbox 3.2 and Softimage XSI) will be supported.

Nemotion is produced by DSM Computer AG in germany, check the homepage can be delivered on stock

Part from an email of chief scientist “Bill Buxton” at Alias Wavefront after getting Nemotion:

the unit arrived. Had a person from the creative, not technical side, set it up. He did so with no problem and had it working productively in a matter of 30 minutes.

Excellent job!
