The Overdrive motion system is the hub of a network which streams live and recorded motion data. Utilizing high-bandwidth digital technologies, Overdrive offers flexibility and expandability when problem-solving in production environments. As a hard real time constraint system, Overdrive is suitable for Robotics, Motion Control, Animatronics, 3D Virtual Studios, and Metadata Acquisition.
