Reality Engine
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 – AR/VR real-time presentations made easy
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.

M-PIP picture-in-picture device
The M-PIP has been designed for IP or SDI playout applications that need one or two picture-in-picture boxes to be inset on the main programme or a coloured background.
Picture-in-picture functionality has previously only been available as part of some production mixers, channel-in-a-box systems and master control mixers. As a dedicated double box generator, the M-PIP therefore provides a cost-effective solution for those who only require picture-in-picture functionality, while it can also be used to add extra capability to a standard playout or studio system.
Up to two boxes can be inset on the programme or matte background when required, either by selecting the required foreground flow source or by using preset recall. Controls are available to independently size and position the two boxes on the screen, as well as to manipulate the size and position of the images inside those boxes. A coloured border, as well as edge softness, can be applied to each box if required. The boxes can be faded up and down, while the background can be faded out to black. The M-PIP provides 16 presets which can be used to create and store different looks for the boxes and then be recalled by using Crystal Vision's ASCII or JSON protocols in conjunction with the broadcaster's own control system, or alternatively by using the company's VisionWeb control software.
The M-PIP can be used with IP (ST 2022 and ST 2110 video), with SDI or with both IP and SDI at the same time for hybrid systems. This gives you the easiest possible SDI to IP upgrade, while also making it perfect for mixed SDI and IP installations as well as fully IP or fully SDI environments. It works with 31 different video standards, including 1080p.
The M-PIP is a software app that runs on the MARBLE-V1 media processor. A card that fits in the Vision 3 frame, MARBLE-V1 features a powerful CPU/GPU processor, six bi-directional SDI connections and four 10GbE SFP+ network interface ports and allows different apps to be installed when needs change.

M-WEBKEY web page keyer
The M-WEBKEY IP/SDI web page keyer provides a cost-effective alternative to a full graphics system. It's ideal for channel branding as well as providing news, weather, advert and emergency information overlays for both IP and SDI infrastructures.
The M-WEBKEY is unique because it can key a web page on to a video input. With traditional keying, the external key and fill have to be created and output as video which requires expensive dedicated character generator hardware, whereas keying a web page means that the key and fill source never become video.
The M-WEBKEY allows Flow 1 or a matte to be set as the background source, with the overlaid foreground source and key signal (which defines the graphic's location and transparency) coming from the URL that is entered. The M-WEBKEY plus a web designer and web server could provide all the graphics for a channel.
The M-WEBKEY can be used with IP (ST 2022 and ST 2110 video), with SDI or with both IP and SDI at the same time for hybrid systems. This gives you the easiest possible SDI to IP upgrade, while also making it perfect for mixed SDI and IP installations as well as fully IP or fully SDI environments. It works with 31 different video standards, including 1080p.
Features include the ability to fade the key up and down, crops to force areas of background or foreground, a framestore synchroniser plus ten frames of video delay to help with system integration and extensive signal monitoring.
The M-WEBKEY is a software app that runs on the MARBLE-V1 media processor.

X-Pert Graphics
X-Pert Graphics is a sophisticated, yet extremely user-friendly on-air CG and graphics manager. It lets you create different static or dynamic objects such as rolls, crawls, multi-layered simultaneous still pictures, analog, and digital clocks, animated logos, etc., and save them in projects. Those could easily be used for direct broadcasting or as customized templates for future use. In addition, the application has a built-in Scheduler that lets you start objects from a previously created project(s) at different times.
X-Pert Graphics can run as a standalone solution or in the background, without its front-end interface. This allows all objects and slide actions to be triggered by third-party OEM software that sends its script commands via a network protocol.
The solution is designed to work in sync with X-Pert Playout. Objects in X-Pert Graphics to be started or stopped by using X-Pert Playout. This is achieved by inserting X-Pert Graphics net control events in the X-Pert Playout playlist. Control can also be automated using scripts triggered by metadata conditions from X-Pert Playout. The playlist metadata value from X-Pert Playout can be sent to the text objects.
X-Pert Graphics provides powerful tools for project preparation and extensive control over on-air graphics.

Additionally, InfinitySet now includes an Aston Crosspoint for further flexibility. Aston now takes full advantage of NVIDIA's GPU movie decoding, while its PBR material rendering has been further enhanced.
Created for designers
Aston has been created from the ground up to be extremely user-friendly, so designers can concentrate on creation rather than on pure operation.
Intuitive drag-and-drop creation
Adaptive Contextual Interface. The basic tools are always present, but as the design grows the required contextual tools become automatically visible
Properties and attributes. Objects always display all their properties, so designers have all the information at hand, anytime.
Supports a wide range of 3D formats such as .fbx, .dae, .obj or .3ds
Advanced primitives, objects and materials
Brainstorm supports a wide variety of objects and primitives, from simple spheres to intricate curves or arrows, which also allow for multiple properties. Practically all the parameters (geometry, size, appearance, materials…) of the wide variety of objects and primitives supported by Aston are editable.
Aston includes a wide variety of primitives: Basic primitives (sphere, cone, cube…), curves, data bars, particles systems and much more, all with multiple parameters.
Parameters are fully editable and animatable: geometry, size, appearance, materials… Also, objects can be adhered together, grouped and work as a unit when required.
Font and text management
Aston supports advanced real-time 3D Fonts with extremely precise rendering quality and extensive features and parameters with real-time render and operation.
