Total virtual studio solution
Orad’s ProSet is truly a complete vir-tual studio solution with tight
integra-tion between its dedicated hardware, software and tracking
technology. This one-stop-shop solution is ideal for all broadcasters who
want to be assured that all the elements of their virtual studio are
provided from a single vendor.
Stunning virtual sets
Virtual sets are first designed using modeling software such
as 3D Studio Max and Maya. Then utilizing ProSet’s powerful importing
capabilities, the models along with their respective geo-metry, textures
and animations are imp-orted directly into ProSet. Relying on Orad’s HDVG
video graphics render-ing platform, ProSet is equipped with unmatched
rendering power that allows even the most complex virtual sets to run in
real-time. Up to 8 full scene anti-aliasing samples and other sets of
graphic features, ensure stunning pho-to-realistic results.
In order to maintain the highest level of photo realism, ProSet offers
its uni-que real-time HD/SD depth of field shader. As the studio camera
zooms in, the virtual background will gradually defocus, and while zooming
out the background will refocus in the exact same manner it would have had
it been a real background. Orad offers other shaders, such as real-time video sha-
|
ders, that are applied to the incoming video
insertions. In addition, bump mapping and displacement mapping are also
offered to ensure the highest level of photo realism.
Free camera movement
An extremely accurate camera tra-cking system is the
foundation for any virtual studio production, as it ensures a perfect match
between the real and the virtual world.
Orad is the world leader and patent holder for the majority of vir-tual
studios and camera tracking tec-hnologies, and offers a full range of
solutions that address any production need or budget.
ProSet can utilize either the Pattern Recognition tracking system,
Cam-Track for free cam-era movement, mechanical sensor tracking systems, or
Xync infrared tracking system. ProSet supports all types of broad-cast
cameras, lenses and tripods. Mu-ltiple camera configurations are easily
integrated with no reliance on 3rd party technologies. ProSet offers a
360-degree shooting range and by utilizing the Xync infrared tracking
system both handheld and crane mounted cameras are supported for total
freedom within the virtual set.
Simple to use and powerful
ProSet is a run-down based appli-cation allowing users to create seq-
|
uential lists of items, group them together, and send them to air.
ProSet has 2 working modes: design mode, in which rundowns are created,
and production mode in which the rundown items are sent to air.
Addi-tionally, ProSet includes a set of tools that address the specific
needs of virt-ual studio productions such as positio-ning the virtual set
graphics in the studio, masking, and much more.
ProSet is extremely easy to operate; graphics rundowns are created by
simply dragging and dropping graphics items into a playlist. ProSet offers
a local preview for the next graphics being sent to air. The operator may
view the entire page, including its ani-mations, before sending these
graphics to air. Furthermore, ProSet receives camera tracking information
from the studio camera and thus allows the operator to view the preview
from the exact position of the relevant studio camera.
ProSet implements a unique dynamic scene blending architecture. This
architecture allows triggering of a multiple number of graphic scenes at
the same time using the same system. For example, the virtual backgro-
und
can be generated from one scene while foreground objects such as lower
third and tickers can be generated from an additional scene. Both can be
then combinedinto one unified output channel even though generated
from independent scenes,
