(tmac)
total material appearance capture

A new generation of PBR (Physically Based Rendering) texture capture device. Featuring ScanTray - samples handling in/out tray with an area of whopping 1x1 meter fully back underlit BlackShine surface and family of SamplesAttach accessories. Samples are captured with an a 3-step-LightSimulation - a Spotlight capture, Diffused light capture and Underlight capture handled by eight original Octopus design arms.

Automated capture completes in 40 seconds saving DigitalTwin of almost any material. tmac is based on photometric stereo featuring 120°C heat-resistant high-contrast MidOpt SpotlightPolarizer with original click in/out design and 400°C heat resistant special 99% light-transmission AntiRelection industrial AR70 glass.
Each Original Octopus arm features two Spotlights with whopping 95 Watts or 10,000 lumens each and lightsaber-like OctopusStrip with original snap on design. Octopus arm is by design used as HeatSink to reach maximum brightness levels and proper built-in ThermalDesign.
Industry-Grade Aluminium
& Carbon/Glass Fiber
Frame design made of Industry-Grade Aluminium, 100% dense PC Carbon Fiber Blend and Flexible Glass Fibers ensures stability and sharpness. Scanner comes in three BaseSets variations - a ScanTray with 1x1 meter scan area suitable for fabrics, leathers - a FourWheel with virtually unlimited Stitch area suitable for floors, wood, plaster, stone, outdoor and PedestalLevel suitable for scanning objects surfaces like furniture.

Performer

tmac provides versatility and top cgi industry companies stated outstanding performance and quality. tmac provides wide range of use, area of scan and simply put, great visual quality. Brought by one of best cgi artists and technicians in the world, tmac stands for quality and features ColorRenditionProcess like never before. Produced DigitalTwin OriginalAlbedo has no baked light and thanks to special internal setup of Octopus arms coupled with DigitalProcess in house processing results in no directly perceivably reflected baked in light with correct black levels.
3-step Light Simulation

3-step-LightSimulation features no.where to be seen CRI (Color Rendering Index) of 95+ with option of CRI 99 Sunlike together with phosphor technology reaching R9 of 99. Wavelengths close to perfection like sunlight ensures colors as meant to be seen and coupled with original in-house ColorProcess of color linearization, lens correction and color calibration makes for one to one results. Precise ColorTemperature with carefull binning and CurrentDrive makes for no ghosting colors leaks and even distribution of light.
Power House

PowerHouse and OnboardBrain provides easy operation and automation of whole process with settings of intesities and calibration mode for perfect 90° high contrast cross polarization. Whole device features whopping 1,830 Watts of lighting power.
BlackShine Scan Tray

ScanTray consists of original 10-layer sandwich design featuring BlackShine technology that appears completely black and matte for no ghosting inner reflections for regular capture and shines Underlight for OriginalTranslucency capture. LGP (light Guide Plate) technology is core of the ScanTray delivering EvenLight distribution with thousands of custom laser-engraved dots. EdgeLight travels trough dots reflected of DeBond going trough numerous passes of Reflection and OpalDiffusion layers finally hitting Original BlackShine layer.
Spider Holder

SpiderHolder ensures easy operation of capture with almost any camera slide in/out mechanism and original wireless CameraTrigger. Supporting lens up to 72 mm providing adjustable scan area from maximum of 1,5 x 1,0 meter down to few centimeters. Based on camera used and focused area - DPI can range from 120 (using Nikon D3400 and focus area of 1,0 x 1,5 meters) to up to 7500 (using Hasselblad H6D-400c and focus area of 5x5 cm).

PhotometricSoftware processes DigitalTwins generating OriginalAlbedo, OriginalNormal - high frequency super crisp 8-Directions normal map - OriginalReflection - original in-house substraction and calibration process generated reflection map, OriginalGlossiness, OriginalHeight, OriginalAlpha and OriginalTranslucency - true ScanTray Underlight driven alpha and translucency map.


tmac represents milestone created from love and passion to bring real world surfaces and objects to virtual realm in nuanced and believable manner.
