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.

Edison PRO is an innovative, template-based playout application that seeks to transform any live, online presentation or conference into an immersive experience through AR and virtual environments, allowing users to enhance their speech and storytelling with real-time 3D graphics and other visual aids, including immersing themselves in the presentation.

Based on Brainstorm’s 25 years of broadcast experience in virtual sets and AR, Edison PRO substantially improves the impact of any presentation. Users do not require any experience in graphics, video, image or 3D, as the starting point for their sessions is a PPT of PDF document.

Based on 25 years of the broadcast experience of Brainstorm in virtual sets and AR, Edison PRO substantially improves the quality and impact of your presentations without requiring specific knowledge in 3D, virtual studios or video.

Edison PRO is a standalone product that includes a future-proof hardware to ensure the ease of operation, compatibility and performance. Installation, training and support are straight-forward, ensuring a rock-solid operation even in highly demanding, live production environments.

Compatible with standard presentation tools

Edison PRO can import standard PPT and PDF files so the slides or pages can be displayed and controlled by the presenter by using Edison’s interface. The presentation can also be controlled using standard clicker devices, smartphones or tablets.

Easy to use and control

Running a presentation is as easy as loading a template and importing the slides. Once a template is loaded, Edison PRO can key out and insert the presenter inside the 3D Virtual Reality scene, which can be further customized.

TrackFree virtual cameras that turn your virtual set limitless

Using Brainstorm’s patented TrackFree™ technology, Edison PRO takes the video feed of your fixed camera and creates virtual camera views from it. These are flexible, independent from the live feed, and can move freely in 3D space, as pedestals or cranes do in live production environments. This feature expands the virtual environment far beyond the limits of the physical chroma set. Users can change the camera view or create a new one at any time, instantly, with just a click!

Unreal Engine compatible

Edison PRO is compatible with UE scenes, which can be used as 3D backgrounds for the presentation. This improves your presentations with the ability to use hyper realistic background scenes in real-time.

Also, the optional Edison UC (Edison Unreal Control) plugin allows for controlling and editing the UE scene’s blueprints, objects and properties directly from Edison’s own, user-friendly interface.
