Aximmetry - 'Broadcast Dual Engine'
Virtual Production Software

All-in-one Virtual Production PlatformAximmetry’s Virtual Studio software enables you to create high-end, real-time 3D virtual studio environments on a budget.

Offering greater flexibility with Aximmetry’s node-based editor so you can bring to life any project from broadcast production, virtual events, pre-visualisation, LED volume based virtual production or any other 3D graphics task you can imagine, including XR (Extended Reality). Aximmetry software features its own advanced chroma keying technology in every software licence.

Dual Render Engine

Content Creation and Render EnginesThe core of Aximmetry software is their own 3D render engine that can be programmed through a highly flexible node-based user-interface. On top of this core, they have built specialised applications targeting the fields of broadcasting, stage performances and presentations. In addition to this, the Aximmetry DE (Dual Engine) product line was launched, new applications featuring Unreal Engine as well. The choice is yours which render engine you pick for your needs. All Aximmetry software exploits the abilities of today’s graphics hardware: for example, a virtual studio interior can be rendered in a previously unseen complexity and visual quality. When used on a stage, the projected visuals can be real-time generated 2D or 3D imagery, therefore they can be interactively shaped by the performer. Customised intuitive control interfaces can be created for the needs of presentations and video installations.

Advanced Creative Tools

Built-in State of the Art Chroma KeyerAximmetry achieves seamless integration of real and virtual environments with the interaction of virtual lights and real-world objects.

The advanced keyer enables the keying of realistic contact shadows and the software can cast virtual shadows on the talent and can combine these seamlessly with the life-like shadows generated by the talent itself. Aximmetry’s built-in, advanced keyer provides superior results for keying transparent objects, contact shadows, and fine details such as hair.

It can perform broadcast-quality real-time keying with GPU acceleration at a fraction usage of GPU. Finally, Aximmetry’s light wrap effect blurs the boundaries between the physical and virtual space.

Advanced XR Technology
