The new XR features included in the latest InfinitySet version take virtual production to an advanced level.
Brainstorm alongside its regional reseller Korek Production will showcase the latest version of its InfinitySet, the company’s most advanced virtual set and XR/AR solution at CABSAT 2023. Version 5.2 of InfinitySet comes with advanced features designed to enhance virtual production (VP) and XR workflows, streamlining users’ ability to boost their content creation, whether they are using LED video walls or chroma sets to produce virtual content.
Fully compatible with Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) Vanilla, InfinitySet now includes full integration of objects created in InfinitySet or Aston within the UE environment and vice versa, including shadows, reflections, and AR with Unreal Engine, providing greater flexibility for content creation. InfinitySet can seamlessly control UE5 from its own interface while improving the user’s ability to manage, edit and control UE blueprints, objects and properties. It also makes the combination of the Unreal Engine render with Brainstorm’s own eStudio render engine fully transparent.
Speaking about the product, David Moldes, Brainstorm’s Product Manager, said: “Once again, Brainstorm proves its commitment with high-quality content creation by providing must-have technologies and features designed to ensure content creators can cope with any virtual production requirement.”
The main demo in Brainstorm’s mini Virtual Production Studio at CABSAT will demonstrate the advanced possibilities of deploying InfinitySet equipped with the latest RedSpy 3.0 tracking system from Stype and a 3 x 3m flat LED video wall to display the live rendered backgrounds for virtual production. The demo features real-time, seamless extra-render and set extension with colour-matching 3D LUTs, in-context AR motion graphics and much more, using just one workstation.
Motion graphics are essential in any broadcast workflow, and Brainstorm will also show how Aston can provide designers with the most advanced tools for data-driven, in-context, AR graphics, which can be displayed in immersive virtual environments, including UE scenes, and seamlessly interact with the scene and the talents. Aston will also show how multi-channel graphics can easily and transparently be part of any show.
And for smaller broadcasters, corporations, education institutions and content creators of any kind, Brainstorm will show Edison, a complete, cost-effective and easy-to-use solution that transforms any live or online presentation into an immersive experience by using AR and virtual environments.
David Alexander, Brainstorm’s Commercial Director, added: “We are delighted to meet our clients and users once again at CABSAT, which is such an essential venue for the Middle East broadcast and audio-visual markets. Brainstorm is celebrating 30 years in business and we are looking forward to performing live demonstrations that show the latest innovations of what our solutions can offer to enhance all types of virtual productions and workflows.”
