Broadcast Asia 2017: Brainstorm To Intro SmartSet Template-Based Virtual Studio Solution

Brainstorm – manufacturer of real-time 3D graphics, virtual set and augmented reality solutions – will be present at the upcoming Broadcast Asia exhibition on stand 4P3-01. Brainstorm regards Asia as one of its most important regional markets and the company will once again strengthen its presence with a sizeable booth in the Spanish Pavilion.

Brainstorm’s SmartSet is a template-based playout solution designed for small and local TV stations

Brainstorm will feature a live virtual studio demonstration, a theatre presentation showcasing the advanced features of InfinitySet, Brainstorm’s virtual set and augmented reality solution, and further enhanced by graphics and other content created by Aston, Brainstorm’s 2D/3D motion graphics creation, CG and playout solution.

InfinitySet’s HandsTracking feature – which enables presenters to trigger animations and graphics with the simple movement of their hands – is part of the patented TrackFree technology, which is unique to Brainstorm and offers tracking capabilities without any external hardware required. TrackFree enables the TeleTransporter, Brainstorm’s ‘virtual traveler’ feature. 3D Presenter is another unique TrackFree-based feature that generates a true 3D representation of the live presenter. This enables him or her to cast virtual shadows and reflections over other real and 3D objects within the virtual environment, greatly enhancing the realism of the program content and adding to the creative possibilities provided by InfinitySet.

Brainstorm will also introduce SmartSet at Broadcast Asia after its launch at NAB. SmartSet is a template-based playout solution designed for small and local TV stations, and which provides advanced Virtual Set and Augmented Reality applications without the need to create the sets themselves. Brainstorm’s template solutions play out content to air which has been created by using pre-defined or purpose-built templates designed on Brainstorm applications.

There will also be a separate pod for one-to-one demonstrations to showcase the wide range of other Brainstorm products including the latest generation of Astons four decades after the first ones were launched. The current family of Aston products represent the most powerful and versatile 2D and 3D graphics solution available today. OnDemand, Brainstorm’s multi-purpose playout solution, will also be on display.
