RECKEEN SOFTWARE RELEASE 2.0 is OUT NOW!

RECKEEN SOFTWARE RELEASE 2.0 is OUT NOW!
Introducing professional chroma keyer. Simply: key like a pro!

In the software update 2.0 we’ve focused to bring to you a PRO chroma keyer for even more precise keying, especially in the uneven lighting, completely for FREE for all RECKEEN users!

Changes done to RECKEEN chroma keyer:

  • Now, the keyer has an option of colour-picking 3 different areas from your green or blue background, and adjusting the key settings, such as Matte Control and Tolerance Correction, for each colour separately to achieve an even and precise mask.
  • Another feature added is a great addition for all trackless productions – use BACKGROUND CAPTURE to even out the whole background area for seamless yet super quick keying. This new feature can be found in both SIMPLE and PROFESSIONAL key option. It creates a unified mask of your green or blue screen before a talent or stage props are placed on the background.
  • BG Influence – new setting in the Edge Correction tab: an advanced blending function allowing for a better blend of foreground with background

Other exciting updates:

  • NDI 5 support – utilise NDI to its fullest potential!
  • Better performance optimisation for NDI
  • Denoising for talent shadows

Upgrade you the REKEEN software to version 2.0 today directly from its GUI.

Have any questions? Drop us an email at contact@reckeen.com

New RECKEEN software version now available – Release 1.9

New software version is now available do download!

We’re thrilled to announce that from now on RECKEEN supports FreeD Protocol, therefore PTZ tracking & Augmented Reality productions are now available using Reckeen 3D Studio software*.

What’s changed in 1.9 version?

  • Better quality streaming with bitrate up to 9000 kbps
  • Chroma key with 3 colour pickers
    It’s hard to get one consistent green colour all around your green screen – the most common reason is lighting. To ensure more precise keying when the conditions are imperfect, you can now choose up to 3 colours with the picker in Simple chroma key settings.
  • New effects in 3D Studio Editor:
    • Opacity – you can now use opacity in two scenarios – you can change the opacity of any object and set it to a desired value, as well as use opacity as an effect for INTRO and OUTRO in animation settings – an object will appear or disappear from the stage by changing its opacity from or to 0%.
    • Wipe – an effect can be used for INTRO and OUTRO phases in animation settings – an object will appear or disappear from the stage by wipe effect which can be set up at different angles (multiples of 45 degree angles).
  • Virtual set scaler in 3D Studio Editor. Make any virtual set bigger or smaller using SCALE option in 3D Studio Editor. You can independently scale each of the X,Y and Z axes. This is particularly useful when using Virtual Studio PTZ tracking feature – sine you cannot change the size of a talent, you need to change the size (scale) of a 3D set, if the proportions between the talent and the scene do not match up.
  • RECKEEN XR – features for PTZ tracking & AR* RECKEEN now supports FreeD protocol, which allows for PTZ tracking and AR productions. These features are called RECKEEN XR.

RECKEEN XR Software changes

  • Tracking tab in the configuration window
  • PTZ tab for PTZ presets next to V/C tab
  • Status Monitor
  • Set calibration window
  • T1-T4 options in 3D Studio Editor
  • PTZ control via VKey-100 Control Panel
  • Virtual Studio PTZ Tracking:
    • talent shadows
    • precise reflections
    • depth recognition – possibility to walk around a 3D object
    • 360° mode – you can now make productions using high resolution 360° still pictures
  • Augmented Reality:
    • AR shadows
    • AR light in 3D Studio Editor / Lights
    • Chroma keying in AR mode – possibility to insert trackless video signals, and to use Smartkey feature.
  • Multi-camera productions using multiple modes – use a combination of Virtual Studio tracking, AR and trackless modes in one, multi-camera production.

NOTES

RECKEEN XR demo version with watermark is available to every RECKEEN user who updates the software to version 1.9. However, to fully enable the features, purchase of RECKEEN XR license is needed.
Licenses are available for 90 days, 365 days and lifetime. Find out more by sending an email to sales@reckeen.com and by visiting

RECKEEN XR Extend the experience with extended reality

A step up from your trackless virtual studio solution!
Greater immersion into a virtual world means more incredible and extraordinary outcome.
Wow your audience with real-time Augmented Reality and Tracking 3D Virtual Studio productions.

VIRTUAL STUDIO PTZ TRACKING

Create even more advanced and dynamic productions thanks to PTZ tracking.
Pan-tilt-zoom functionalities gives a presenter the ability to move around a green screen more freely, whilst the image maintains its highest quality by using the camera’s optical zoom.

The advanced shadow processor not only generates real-time shadows and reflections of an on-screen talent, but also analyses the depth of the talent in a green studio space, which makes it possible to walk around 3D objects located in the virtual set.

AUGMENTED REALITY

Transform a plain view from a camera into a truly immersive space. Improve your viewers’ watching experience by adding three-dimensional elements and animations to the physical surrounding.

Blend the real and the virtual worlds together to create live AR productions.

PTZ CONTROL

Control the movements of the PTZ cameras directly from the RECKEEN’s application and VKey-100 control panel.

Program PTZ presets in RECKEEN’s Editor or use the joystick on the VKey-100 to smoothly change a camera’s position.
Everything under your fingertips – one application, one controller, one place to manage the whole production from.

DYNAMIC PTZ MULTI-CAMERA PRODUCTIONS

Use up to 4 cameras to create advanced and outstanding productions.
RECKEEN XR allows you to independently use different XR modes together – one camera can render virtual studio environment when the other performs tasks in Augmented Reality mode.
Unleash your creativity and expand your possibilities.

COMPATIBLE CAMERAS

RECKEEN XR is compatible with the following camera models:

SONY

BRC-X400

Great choice for education and semi-professional purposes.

*The XR features work when using HDMI or SDI connectors – connecting camera via NDI will allow to control pan, tilt and zoom positions directly from Reckeen control panel, but XR features will be disabled.

SONY

BRC-X1000

Stunning picture quality and smooth tracking in 4K.

SONY

BRC-H800

Stunning picture quality and smooth tracking in FullHD.
