AIPTEK 3D CAMERA TEST – Firmware vs. No Firmware

20 Nov

This is some 3D test footage I took with my new Aiptek 3D camcorder. It compares the video framerate of the camera BEFORE and AFTER the firmware update from their European site. The firmware results are most apparent if you view the video in side-by-side format…look for blurriness during camera movements…it is improved greatly with the firmware update. I found that, out of the box, the camera’s video quality is pretty worthless. I looked closely at the video footage I took before the update and found that although it was indeed 29.97 fps, every frame was simply duplicated 3 or 4 times! Furthermore, there was a lot of OBVIOUS OBNOXIOUS jagged/aliased edges to everything. With the firmware update, I did get a true 29.97 fps and the video is much less ‘jagged’ now. I don’t understand how this company is still in business! The firmware update is nowhere to be found on the US site and I can’t imagine most people didn’t send this thing back after looking at the resulting images prior to the firmware update. Why the heck aren’t they updating these things before shipping them out? Mine appears to have been manufactured in October, 2010 (FW version 3607). If you update the firmware to bring the framerate up to 29.97 fps (and you will probably want to!), MAKE SURE YOU USE THE CORRECT UPDATE FOR YOUR CAMERA’S CURRENT Firmware Version from the European site (the camera’s current firmware version is found within the menu system of the camera). The download page has several

YT3D Stereoscopic 3D Video “The Wind” (Aiptek I2 HD 3D Camcorder)

01 Apr

Here is a video I made to test out the Aiptek I2 HD 3D camcorder. It was shot at Nathanael Greene Park in Springfield Missouri. The goal of this project was to shoot and edit a stereoscopic video in less than 3 hours, I was rendering when time ran out so there are no title credits.
