Furnace for Avid|DS contains a vector flow retimer to slow down image sequences and a plug-in to automatically remove camera shake.

Kronos uses The Foundry's advanced motion estimation technology to track pixel movement and build in-between frames in a sequence. Our research and development in conjuction with leading universities has concentrated on reducing the edge tearing common with other retimers. Kronos can also be used to speed up a sequence using the vectors to apply motion blur.

Steadiness removes camera shake from hand-held shots. You do not have to set tracking points, you just apply Steadiness and the wobble is removed. This saves a lot of time in those shots where good tracking points are hard to find or move continually off-screen.

Furnace technology is in use by many of the leading post production house including Weta and The Moving Picture Company and has been used on numerous films including Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.

Furnace is supported on Avid|DS 7.5 (and 7.0)
