Reality Engine

Reality Engine™ is world’s first real-time node based 3D compositor enabling real-time visual effects pipelines featuring video I/O, keying, compositing and rendering UHD/4K in one single software in real-time. As the most photorealistic virtual studio production product, Reality Engine™ provides its client the tools to create the most immersive content possible including augmented reality productions, real-time data driven graphics and real-time ray tracing for cinematic quality rendering and revolutionize storytelling in broadcasting, media and cinema industry.

Photorealism

Reality Engine™ uses Unreal® Engine by Epic Games, the photorealistic real-time game engine, as the 3D renderer. With the advanced real-time visual effects capabilities, Reality Engine™ ensures the most photorealistic composite output possible.

Real-time Ray Tracing

Reality Engine™ takes advantage of latest powerful technologies from world’s most leading companies like Nvidia® RTX® GPU technology to produce high quality and realistic rendering possible in the industry today. Real-time ray tracing technology brings cinematic quality rendering capability to live production and provides realistic lighting, shadows and reﬂections.

Real-time Compositing in 3D Space

As a unique approach in the industry, the green screen video is composited with virtual graphics in 3D space. This technique results in real-time dynamic reﬂections of the physical objects and the talent on the virtual graphics. Like reﬂections, refractions of physical objects are also created automatically in real-time. Reality Engine™ composites video by using 16-bit ﬂoating point arithmetic for HDR precision. Having the control of full compositing pipeline, all gamma and color space conversions are handled precisely. By using this technology, the real world and the virtual elements are blended seamlessly.

Reality Keyer

Reality Keyer™ is the world’s ﬁrst and only real-time image based keyer that works on GPU. Reality Keyer™ preserves real environment details such as contact shadows, transparent objects and sub-pixel details like hair.

Reality Keyer™ can work also with 4:4:4 RGB camera sources. The keyer also supports 3D masks for “force-ﬁll” and “spill bypass” buffers besides garbage mask. Those mask s enable hybrid virtual studio operation which lets you combine virtual and real environments.

Advanced Augmented Reality

Having the tracked camera feed as an input video, Reality Engine™ is able to render reﬂections and refractions of the real environment onto the virtual augmented objects. Real-time 3D reﬂections and the shadows of the virtual objects are also composited over the incoming camera feed simulated with 3D perspective.

Reality API

Reality.net API gives possibility to users to develop their own 3rd party control applications for speciﬁc needs such as data driven graphics.

Videowall and Portal Window

Reality Engine™ can feed your videowalls with high-resolution 3D graphics. By using camera tracking data, you can even convert your videowall into a portal to a virtual environment. Combining portal window with ceiling extension, you will be able to have a virtual studio without green screen.

Tracking Technology

Reality Engine™ supports industry standard mechanical and optical camera tracking systems. Reality can use the lens calibration data sent by the tracking devices.

Talent Tracking

When the talent tracking data acquired by Reality Engine, the engine positions the talent inside the virtual world in the correct position and depth. This technology automatically enables the creation of accurate reﬂections and refractions of the talent. Interaction between the real and physical is achieved with utmost realism thanks to Reality Engine’s industry ﬁrst and only feature of com-positing in 3D space.
