Extended Reality – xR

Powering The Next Generation of Live Content Production

Extended Reality (xR) is a next-generation process for film, broadcast and live event production. xR empowers production teams to deliver Augmented and Mixed Reality within studio environments. Mixed Reality (MR) combines camera tracking and real-time rendering to create an immersive virtual environment, visible live on set and shot directly in camera. Using high resolution LED screens or projection surfaces in the space, MR allows actors to be immersed in a virtual environment. Camera tracking technology enables the content on these screens to be generated in real-time, rendered from the point of view of the camera.

Creating Rich Virtual Environments that Immerse the Talent in the Space

The goal of MR is to provide broadcasters and production companies a live and immersive production environment to create more compelling content, and to be able to make quicker creative decisions during production. MR allows the creation of multi-purpose studio environments and the entire setup can be applied to all types of programming with limitless visual aesthetic and any camera configuration.
