NEXT GENERATION OF 3D MULTICAMERA PRODUCTION SYSTEM

In modern production and broadcasting industry, the highest quality and infinite creative possibilities can only be achieved with 3D technology.

If you are not familiar with virtual 3D studio systems – we invite you to a world of new possibilities. With our solution your TV content will be unique and professional, and its creation process easy and fun.

RECKEEN 3D Studio is a complete set of tools and functionalities enabling creating, recording and broadcasting high-quality 3D TV content in real-time. Free scenographies of different styles, library of 3D objects, various editors and creators – those are just a few of the things that come with Reckeen system by default.

RECKEEN 3D Studio is a multi-channel mixer that combines video sources with computer graphics and media. Each of the video sources can be pre-processed with built-in chroma keys. The purpose of chroma keying is to remove green or blue background in order to place a talent in a virtual studio.

The advantage of a virtual studio over a physical one, is unlimited possibilities and creative freedom. RECKEEN enables you to produce your video content up to the highest standard, using the newest technologies. Don’t be limited by a small studio space, budget nor lack of innovation – choose RECKEEN!

ALL NECESSARY TOOLS TO PRODUCE 3D TV CONTENT

RECKEEN 3D Studio package contains all necessary tools and applications to produce 3D video content, perfect for TV stations, Youtubers, Twitch, Mixer and other broadcasters, e-learning and education facilities, or for producing corporate materials.

The system has been created for people who value the highest quality and technological innovation, but also ease of use and convenience. RECKEEN 3D Studio performs amazingly in various environments – from professional TV studios to home productions. It is designed to fulfil the demand of any company, as the production can be performed by just a single person.

A 3D virtual studio system creates an illusion that the production is made in a spacious studio and with use of multiple cameras, when in reality it can be created on a small green screen and with as little as only one physical camera. RECKEEN 3D Studio system is equipped with four independent virtual cameras which give you freedom to move around the whole virtual set at any angle without limitations, with a use of smooth and complex-looking transitions, as well as by manual operations, that imitate a camera crane and cameraman natural movements. Virtual studio provides you with space to hold all kind of presentations, with a use of 3D graphics, animations and other media. All that, along with any editing is done and generated in real-time, without extra rendering time.

CAMERA SHOTS

RECKEEN 3D Studio system is equipped with 4 Virtual Cameras with a full range of motions available to reflect natural camera movements made by a cameraman: pan, tilt, zoom, dolly, truck, arc, pedestal, and so on. They can be rotated, have their angles and positions changed, giving you access to all areas of the set.

It is possible to assign up to 15 camera shots to each of the virtual camera, giving us 60 camera shots in total. These shots define different positions of the camera around a virtual studio. The transitions between the shots imitate a camera crane or track slider movements, and all of the parameters can be edit and customised fit your needs.

You can swiftly navigate between the virtual cameras and the shots from the production screen.

SIGNAL SOURCES

The fundamental part of a virtual studio configuration is selecting sources. Our main sources are video inputs from cameras – that way we can add a talent to our virtual studio. Such signal is sent to Chroma keying function. The purpose of chroma keying is to remove green or blue colour background, and be able to place a talent in a virtual studio.

Other sources may include media files such as videos, still images, or slide presentations, that you wish to display on a virtual screen inside a 3D studio.

AUDIO

RECKEEN 3D Studio system is equipped with a built-in audio mixer, that allows you to mix signal levels for all of the inputs – from cameras and microphones, as well as media and audio files.

Output signal can be adjusted and managed, as well as recorded straight from the broadcasted material.

The mixer is also equipped with a Follow function, which automatically synchronizes an audio source with an input that’s being aired, avoiding situations when microphones, or other audio sources, are forgotten to be turned on or off in the correct times.

MEDIA TRAY

Media tray stores all of your media files: videos, audio files, pictures, and texts, in one organized place, that is divided into tabs. The shortcuts make navigating between the tabs easy and efficient, which is extremely important during a production process.

NewTek NDI®

NewTek’s innovative Network Device Interface technology enables compatible systems, devices, and applications to connect and communicate over IP to share video, audio, and data.

RECKEEN 3D Studio system offers 6 NDI inputs for cameras and Media. Camera inputs include supported stream key and RECKEEN chroma key.

The system also includes an NDI output, which allows Program output to be broadcasted using NDI technology.

CONNECT UP TO 4 INDEPENDENT CAMERAS

RECKEEN 3D Studio system has 4 camera inputs, up to 4K format. It allows you to have up to two 4K or up to four Full HD camcorders connected to the RECKEEN’s workstation. Their signals are keyed independently in a high quality, thanks to four independent chroma key channels. Multiple inputs allow a user to make more complex productions with numerous talents filmed on different greenscreens, and also in different locations – if using an NDI connection.

STILL EDITOR & NewBlue™ TITLERS

Create text panels and graphic compositions. Edit the text during broadcast

Our Still Editor application allows you to create text panels and aesthetically impressive compositions in the form of graphic files with images and texts, such as news tickers. Texts can also be edited during broadcast, in real-time, without the need to go back to the application – this way you can place a text panel with a new content live on-air immediately.

For even more impressive text panels, we’ve partnered with NewBlue® – their titling solutions will not only stun your audience and bring your production to the next level, but will bring more efficiency and into your work, and improve workflow. You can now connect NewBlue® products with RECKEEN 3DSPro via NDI connection – an easy way to amazing results!

CAMERA SIGNALS’ KEYING OPTIONS

Each of the signals from the cameras can be keyed with independent, user-defined chroma keys (upstream keys). You have the choice of three keying modes:

CHROMA KEY

UPSTREAM KEY

This mode allows you to accurately configure keying properties. It is a 6-step process with a wizard feature, that gives you a detailed description of each step, to help you achieve the best results.

SIMPLE CHROMA KEY

SIMPLE UPSTREAM KEY

This simplified mode generates most of the keying settings automatically, on the basis of algorithms analysing the image. A user sets up the key using only 3 sliders, which makes it easy, quick, and perfect for less experienced users.

LUMA KEY

LUMA UPSTREAM KEY

Luma keying is based on the levels of signal’s luminance readings. This mode includes extensive panel of keying configuration options, from white balance, through cut-off levels, to post-production effects.

3D STUDIO WIZARD

Make your own, impressive 3D scenography completely for free

3D Studio Wizard is an easy way to create your own, unique 3D scenography or a TV set using step-by-step guided application. Our free, rich in content and still growing library of 3D objects and decorations currently has over 700 items. Each item can be modified by changing texture and colour, which increases its creative potential even further. If that’s not enough, you can always import objects from any external graphic software, such as Maya, Blender, 3D Studio Max or Cinema 4D, or Microsoft Paint 3D, that is preinstalled at the RECKEEN system. The structure of 3D Studio Wizard allows even novice users to easily create 3D studios from scratch, providing you with unlimited possibilities to unleash your creativity, without spending a dime, because 3D Studio Wizard comes with our system completely for free!

3D STUDIO EDITOR

Edit and customise pre-existing sets: from furnishings, through textures, colours, to lightning

For even further convenience, we give you over 60 high quality, ready to use studio set designs for free! Choose your favourite scenography and start your production immediately. Sets include furniture, virtual monitors, space for talents, designed lightning and shadows. You can use them as they are or, using 3D Editor, you can customise each element to fit your needs. Add and remove furniture, change the position, size, colour and texture of each element, adjust the shadows, modify the lightning, add animated objects, and more. The editor doesn’t require to leave the production application, which is efficient, time-saving, and lets you make changes easily and quickly.

LIGHTS

There are few different types of lights available in our virtual studio: Ambient, Directional, Point and Spotlight. You can modify their parameters, turn them on and off, change their colour, intensity and position. This allows you to change the appearance of the studio’s set design, lighten or darken it in order to change its character and ambience.

SHADOWS

RECKEEN 3D Studio system’s engine renders shadows in real-time using parameters from virtually generated lighting, using a dedicated algorithm. You can enable or disable a shadows generation function for each piece of studio’s equipment, and talents. The intensity of shadows can also be adjusted and customised. With this feature, you can achieve a whole new level of realistic reproduction of a real world in a 3D space.

REFLECTIONS

RECKEEN 3D Studio system renders real-time reflections on glossy surfaces. These reflections change accordingly to the position of virtual cameras, as well as objects’ and talents’ movements. Reflections are generated not only on static or flat surfaces, but also on any glossy textures on 3D animated objects.

ANIMATIONS

Animate any object within our virtual studio, or use imported rigged animations

Simple animations can be added to any 3D object in a virtual studio – application objects as well as imported ones. For more complex animations, you can import rigged animations from any external applications using FBX format.
The animations can be easily triggered from within the production screen.
For a realistic effect, reflections are added to any imported objects and animations.

VIDEO MIXER AND SWITCHER

RECKEEN 3D Studio application includes video mixer and switcher inside the production module screen. You can now control and manage productions using only a computer keyboard and a mouse.

For even more ease and convenience, we’ve designed VKey-100 control panel – a specially designed mixer and switcher keyboard with a multifunctional joystick, a T-bar equipped with contactless Hall Effect technology, and LED illuminated buttons for heightened visibility of control surface, which placements on the panel corresponds to the placements on the production module screen, for the clarity and efficiency of work.

MULTIVIEWER

RECKEEN’s system gives a user as much as 16 simultaneous preview windows, enabling efficient production of a live program. Given their functions, previews can be divided into three groups:

  • previews of input signals – camera, media and text inputs,
  • production previews – Preview and Program,
  • previews of virtual cameras – views of chosen Virtual Camera phases

Multiviewer located in the production screen allows you to efficiently manage your work in a virtual studio. Any changes are displayed in Preview windows instantly, with no extra time needed for rendering, providing a user with real-time view of a produced program.

For an easy and clear management during production and to ensure a complete comfort of work, Multiviewer can be displayed on additional monitors.

DSK (downstream key)

Graphics, news tickers, animated logos and other textboards are placed on the main signal as overlays called DSK (downstream key). RECKEEN 3D Studio system allows you to add up to two DSK signals simultaneously. Any kind of media can be placed as a DSK layer, a very useful way of using this function is a slideshow presentation – if a slideshow is made on a green background, this background will be keyed, leaving only graphics and text visible, which can truly enhance the look of your production, making it even more unique.

CONFIGURABLE TRIGGERS

To facilitate your work, you can combine several functions creating a command sequence that can be programmed to be executed using trigger banks. A trigger bank can be set off automatically with a single button. The functions are then triggered one after the other, making your work more efficient. Any function at our system can be triggered, which can be extremely effective for your workflow. There are 10 trigger banks available in the system.

An interesting addition to this function is a possibility to control slideshow presentations from within RECKEEN 3D Studio system.

Track rectangle as simple example - set rectangle at position

User screen resolution is always 8K apart from input signal resolution and selected output format. Maximum rectangle size is 7680×4320, minimum size is 256×144. For 4K input signals only one track per input can exceed Full HD resolution, e.g. if Track 1 rectangle size is bigger than 3840×2160, the sizes on Tracks 2 to 4 can be at most 3840×2160 (which is one quarter of 4K input, equal to Full HD). For HD input signals this limitation does not apply.

  • Starting frame – second quarter: x1 =3840, y1 =0 / x2 =7659, y2 =2159

MVP-100

MVP-100 is an advanced video converter which allows conversion of UHD input signals into 4 different streams with resolution up to FullHD. Each device has two UHD inputs which are working simultaneously.

HOW DOES MVP-100 OPERATE?

MVP-100 is an advanced video converter that allows processing and conversion of UHD signals (3840×2160), for example: 12G SDI or HDMI 2.0 into four or eight different high-quality streams, at resolutions up to FullHD. MVP-100 has got two independent conversion channels!

This enables simultaneous and parallel processing of two UHD signal sources – 3840×2160, the input signals are converted into eight 3G SDI outputs, which can be additionally synchronized to a Genlock input.

This solution is ideal for professionals who deal with production and broadcasting of video materials using a variety of sources and signal types. It is perfect to apply both on the set and during the life coverage of events.

In addition, MVP-100 converter is really easy to use. The small size of the device, its user-friendly interface.

HDMI

HDMI port in standard 2.0 mostly used in cameras which can transport up to 3840 x 2160 resolution in frame rate 60 progressive.

SDI 3G/6G/12G

The second way is to use one coaxial cable for two inputs with BNC connector as SDI digital interface standard with supporting 3G/6G/12G signal.

QUAD SDI

Some of the professional equipment, for a transport 4k signal, uses separate 4 coaxial cables with BNC connector. This method is called as Quad SDI. Each of them transports 3G signal.

SDI 3G

One of the possibilities is to connect 8 independent SDI signals at a resolution of up to 3G. At this time, it will not be possible to set virtual frames for each signal from the camera.Each full screen image will be available by pressing the button available on the MVP control panel.

CLONE

Clone is a function that gives you the ability to set exactly the same content on your channel as on the second input channel. For example, if you connect the 4k signal to channel A and set clone function on channel B, you can expect not only 4 Virtual frames but up to 8 with full animations.

CONFERENCE

If you are holding a conference, you can cover it with two 4K cameras’ wide angles. You can mimic a multicamera live production using only two physical cameras. This innovative concept requires a lot less manpower and hardware costs compared to a traditional production. More flexibility, more mobility and more camera angles!

LIVE EVENT

Very often, what limits you the most is that you don’t have enough room for all the operators or a lot of extra angles. If you don’t have much space, the two 4K cameras give you the possibilities tantamount to using eight. It opens you a door to a world of so many angles.

STUDIO NEWS

MVP 100 can be used as a switcher during a live production to make your program more dynamic. You can choose a wide angle, but also a shot of each person in the studio. When one person is talking, all you need is to switch to the right shot and zoom in or out. No cameraman is needed! You have a complete control over your live production.

MVPKEY-100 EXTERNAL CONTROL PANEL

FULL POSSIBILITIES OF CONTROLLING YOUR VIRTUAL CAMERA

MVP is an invaluable tool in creating a top-notch security systems. It allows you to get eight 3G HD outputs from a single 4K camera. As MVP100 processes the signal in real time, you obtain the effect of 8 high-quality mobile video cameras – but without their actual movement. This way, the scaler provides both new opportunities and the possibilities to cut down the costs by reducing the number of actual video cameras and cables, while simultaneously increasing precision and quality in capturing all the important details.
