Our take
Since Mo-Sys was founded by Michael Geissler, it has built up a close-knit client network through its approach of combining great products with close customer service to build solid, long-term relationships based on understanding customer needs.
Its products include StarTracker (an in-studio optical tracking camera for VR and AR applications), StarTracker Studio (the world's first pre-configured complete virtual studio system), and Mo-Sys L40: a 2 axis remote head camera with back-pan option.
As well as providing high-quality products, Mo-Sys maintains ongoing relationships with its clients, providing unrivalled support and service rather than simply moving on to the next project as soon as a product is shipped.
Due to this approach, Mo-Sys has worked with the BBC, FOX, Sky, ESPN, and The Weather Channel, as well as films and TV programs including The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Life of Pi, Sherlock, House of Cards, and Stranger Things. It continues to develop and expand into new markets, while remaining loyal to its creative, innovative, and passionate company culture.
