Apertus- Open Source Cinema

We intend on creating an affordable community driven free software and open hardware cinematic HD camera for a professional production environment.

The goal is to create several hardware and software modules around the Elphel free software and open hardware camera to add all cinema relevant features that are required for shooting in-the field. Some Apertus modules deal with mobile power supply, physical camera control, live video preview, etc.

2012, 3,674 projects were submitted from 72 countries to Prix Ars Electronica.
Apertus won Award of Distinction in the Digital Communities.
