RGB Broadcasting partnering with stYpe provided MMTV with the complete optical camera tracking solution for live production. Our goal was to deploy a system that sets new standards for speed and accuracy, resulting in the implementation of RedSpy 3.0 tracking systems.
RedSpy addresses the traditional problem of limited camera cable bandwidth with special FPGA algorithms for quick compression of 4K images. Unobtrusively detecting its position using infrared LEDs, RedSpy seamlessly blends into any environment and starts tracking within 20 seconds upon power-on without recalibration. The tracking data captured by RedSpy 3.0 will be utilized by Brainstorm 3D’s InfinitySet to meet their virtual production needs, enabling the creation of highly realistic and interactive graphical backgrounds that are fully customizable.
The advanced camera tracking systems empower MMTV to capture dynamic footage with unparalleled accuracy, even in fast-paced environments like dynamic live election graphics. Integration with virtual graphics and augmented reality adds depth and interactivity to broadcasts. Additionally, synchronized movements across multiple cameras ensure consistent framing and smooth transitions during live productions.
