AXIOM Beta Full enclosure concept
The AXIOM product line is the result of pushing for open hardware and free software digital cinema production tools. After successful crowd funding of the AXIOM Beta to build a compact, lightweight high performance hardware platform and receiving an EU Innovation grant for developing the AXIOM Gamma as highest end with "extreme" performance in a larger and more expensive package we are well on track to redefine the industry well beyond the DIY garages and hobbyist labs the project started in.
