Abstract:
Operations with cameras in television production studios often require that the camera base be stationary. These two operations independently require a floor surface that is very smooth and also very level. After establishing the necessary criterion for proper performance of the camera dollies, a measuring protocol had to be established to allow for proper evaluation of the completed surface.
