Abstract
Initial work of this thesis was about building a prototype using IoT to remotely operate a camera equipment. Then, slight modification done to this research paper related to Covid-19 pandemic that halted TV and film industry. Applications of Internet of Things (IoT) and robotics have been researched to counter the impact of this crisis. Later, Virtual Production acquaint with these technologies to face challenges occurred by Covid-19 pandemic. General introduction about IoT, robotics including TV and film industry were stated. Typical problems faced by film makers to produce content during lockdown are limitation of manpower, heavy and huge equipment, outdoor shoots and unsafe environment. Beneficial of IoT and robotics in TV and film industry are such as remote access, internet connectivity, less human-to-human interaction and of course virtual reality. Methodology were separated into two different sections. 20 research papers related to this thesis title were reviewed to obtain data for this thesis. An overview and findings were elaborated from these collected data after completely analyzed and interpreted followed by summary written on each and every 20 research papers separately. TV and Film Industry have achieved a remarkable status with the application of IoT and Robotics. Studies shows that human-machine virtual interaction is the new reality and future of filmmaking. Real-time audio feature is recommended as further upgrade to this technology. In short, the crossover of all these 3 technologies in TV and film industry is briefly discussed shows great possibilities to overcome any pandemic issues in future.
