The SDMP-4S or Software Defined Media Platform is a modular microserver designed to run software applications (apps) that require intense computational processing power and very low latency. Although the SDMP has a system architecture that has similarities to conventional servers, it uses state-of-the-art technology that provides the processing capabilities needed in apps such as live television production, financial trading and deep machine learning. Multiple apps can be staged on a microserver simultaneously enabling extensive adaptability for the platform. The microserver is based on the data concept of ‘single unit of deployment’ to run all apps. The apps can be downloaded as containerized bit files from an app store or repository and then run from memory in the low latency recomposable processor (FPGA). Physical access to the SDMP is accommodated via four SFP+/video SFP (small form factor pluggable) cages on the front panel of the microserver and two 10GbE parallel interface card edge connections at the rear. The microserver operates in the Aperi A1105 Ethernet Switch/Compute Platform (see A1105 data sheet). The A1105 platform can house up to five microservers and each microserver interfaces to ports on the Ethernet Switch in the A1105 via the two 10GbE ports on the microserver edge connector. This topology enables the seamless deployment of clusters of Ethernet connected microservers in a truly elastic architecture. The microserver has its own Linux based Aperi operating system. This OS has an associated ‘infrastructure API’ which is independent of the Open APIs that are integrated within each app that runs on the microserver. The microserver API assists with the orchestration and deployment of apps onto a microserver from an app repository.

Any app running on the microserver has as an integrated web server with an automatically discoverable intuitive user interface. The web server is accessed via the management port of the platform in which the microserver running the app is populated. Comprehensive information related to the microserver hardware on which the app is running is also accessible via this UI.

Mo-Sys VP Pro is the complete solution for creating virtual production content for live broadcast, film, game cinematics and architectural visualization. With a full range of creative tools directly in the engine, enhance your productions using augmented graphics and virtual sets with real-time camera tracking.

What is Mo-Sys VP Pro?

Currently utilised by a growing pool of filmmakers, high-end broadcasters and developers, Mo-Sys VP Pro streams live tracking data from all Mo-Sys robotic and tracking hardware such as StarTracker and RoboJib. Mo-Sys VP Pro features a creative AR mode, an internal keyer and data recording with timecode stamp for FBX export, as well as many more virtual production features that empower your creative processes in the Unreal Engine.

High-quality camera tracking

Developed from our patented broadcast camera tracking system, StarTracker comes the film-orientated StartTracker VP. This optical tracking system looks at “stars”; which are small, identical retro-reflective stickers which are randomly applied to the studio ceiling or on the floor. A small LED sensor, mounted on the studio camera, shines light on the stars and remembers the constellation. This then reports the position and orientation of the studio camera in real time to the rendering engine.

Unrestricted Unreal Plugin

StarTracker VP comes with a plugin for Unreal and as such is not limiting you in your workflow. It allows you to tap into the raw power of Unreal, giving full flexibility and creative freedom. StarTracker VP was specifically tailored for virtual productions and VFX heavy filming – with many features that simplify VFX shots.

Post-production

Whilst allowing on-set visualization in real-time, as well as scene blocking in virtual worlds, StarTracker neatly provides timecode synchronization and an FBX export allowing you to efficiently drop the recorded data and footage into Maya and other post-production software.

• Mo-Sys tracking data over LiveLink - Supports StarTracker, StarTracker MoCap, StarTrackerVR headsets, StarTracker ViewFinder, Handwheels, and extends to all future robotics and tracking hardware.


• Raw Mo-Sys tracking data - Blueprint nodes for use within a 'built game'

TICO-XS is a disruptive, innovative, visually lossless, light-weight and line-based compression technology, specifically designed to be used instead of uncompressed video in many applications. It is currently under standardization as JPEG XS.

TICO-XS is a smart upgrade path to manage higher resolutions (4K, 8K, …) and frame rates while assuring visual quality, keeping power and bandwidth at a reasonable budget and significantly reducing the complexity and cost of a system, a chip or an infrastructure.

 

Applications:

From 3G-SDI to IP in 4K

The mapping of the TICO-XS mezzanine compression to carry UHDTV 4K 60P over a single 3G-SDI cable has been specified in the SMPTE RDD35. intoPIX provides the needed building blocks to create a 4K over 3G-SDI solutions. Have a look at the intoPIX TICO-XS IP-cores and peripheral IP to map the compression over SDI.

 

4K with TICO compression over SMPTE2022-6

As SMPTE ST2022-6, defines the transport of HD-SDI or 3G-SDI over IP, using TICO-XS, it is easy to leverage an existing SMPTE 2022-6 system to carry up to three UHDTV 4K 60P streams over a single 10 GbE port using the SMPTE 2022-6 standard.

 

SMPTE 2110 and TICO compression

SMPTE ST2110-22 specifies the transport of compressed video over IP (including JPEG-XS), enabling you to transport any video formats over IP with full flexibility and all the benefits of TICO-XS compression.

 

8K over a single 10GbE

It has already been proven. TICO-XS can enable you to carry with lossless quality a 8K 60fps video stream over a single 10GbE link using TICO RTP payload and a SMPTE 2110-22 transport.

 

8K over a single 12G-SDI

It has already been proven. TICO-XS can enable you to carry a 8K 60fps video stream over a single 12G-SDI link with lossless quality.
