FEATURE OVERVIEW: BUG

The FOCUSBUG Cine RT System ultrasonic BUG transmitter can be hidden in clothing, but certain fabrics will dampen the ultrasonic signals and noticeably reduce the BUG’s effective range. Heavy or tightly woven fabrics will tend to reduce the BUG’s range the most, although each combination acts somewhat differently and experimentation is required for the best results. For the best reception of the BUG’s ultrasonic transmission, a direct line-of-sight between the BUG and BASE unit is recommended. That said, the BUG’s ultrasonic pulse will usually pass around many common on-set obstacles including stands, people, and props. If an obstacle is too large or blocks the receiving horn of the BASE SENSOR too thoroughly, the distance readings may be affected as the signal has to travel a longer path to reach the BASE.
