AR Graphics
From pre-match statistics and sponsorship logos on the playing field to real-time, in-game data, Mo-Sys delivers packaged, streamlined workflows that empower producers to leverage AR graphics overlays for broadcast and events.
Mo-Sys combines a complete ecosystem of hardware and software technologies, including remote heads, encoding systems, mobile computer hardware and the VP Pro software package.
Training and Initial Project Support
Mo-Sys provides AR graphics and Virtual Production training to leverage Epic Games’ Unreal Engine for streamlined AR graphics delivery in sports broadcast and events coverage.
Mo-Sys also provides initial project support, ensuring that partners, clients and customers can make a smooth transition to these more efficient and easy-to-use AR graphics workflows.
Tracking
Our patented StarTracker technology delivers industry-leading precision camera tracking for ICVFX, VFX and real-time AR workflows.
Hardware encoding provides marker-less tracking for camera heads and cranes.
- Removes all physical cable tethering from StarTracker systems
- Ideal for Steadicam, Handheld, and Cablecam
- Robust point-to-point transmission, with no
- Wi-Fi network required
- Extends tracking capabilities of StarTracker Max into unmapped shooting environments
- A fallback solution to maintain tracking when stars are lost
- Smoothly transitions tracking duties back to StarTracker with a process of data fusion once stars are re-discovered
- Out-of-the-box compatibility with Jimmy Jib Pro and Classic
- Direct sensing – no scaling required
- 1 million ticks/revolution
- Auto alignment technology simplifies set-up and ensures ultra-precise studio calibration
- Set-and-forget with rapid star map discovery
- Web browser-based UI
VP Pro
VP Pro is our full suite of creative tools.
Embeds directly into the native Unreal Engine, to deliver:
- Multi-camera AR graphics
- Virtual sets
- Mixed reality
- XR set extensions
Mo-Sys sports broadcast graphics solutions are designed to integrate with standard production deployments. The AR workflow slots into existing broadcast AR graphics pipelines so that operators can add real-time graphics and AR elements without needing to replace their entire live sports broadcast infrastructure.
Yes, the real-time AR broadcast solutions from Mo-Sys cover both studio environments and on-field deployments. In the studio, the AR graphics system can be scaled to support virtual sets and sports TV graphics for live broadcast; on location, the live sports AR graphics system can be deployed to overlay data-driven broadcast graphics directly on the field of play.
Accurate camera tracking provides continuous positional and lens metadata to the AR graphics system for live broadcast, ensuring that graphic overlays remain locked to the pitch or studio even during fast pans, zooms and cranes. This real-time AR broadcast solution is critical for sports TV graphics where misaligned overlays would distract viewers and undermine credibility.
The AR graphics system for sports broadcast uses encoded camera tracking data to place real-time graphics onto the pitch, court or track in a stable, lifelike way. Broadcasters can insert live sports AR graphics system elements such as score bugs, player stats and sponsor logos into the live broadcast graphics feed without losing registration during complex camera moves.
Mo-Sys sports broadcast solutions can be configured to support remote production and centralized control rooms. Remote head robotics can be operated over cable, wireless or fibre connections for long distance operation from control hubs, ensuring consistent coverage across multiple venues.
By combining real-time graphics with precise broadcast robotics and camera tracking, Mo-Sys solutions enable more informative and visually rich sports TV graphics. Viewers see in-context live sports AR graphics, such as tactical lines and animated stats, integrated naturally into the broadcast graphics workflow, which boosts engagement and understanding.
The AR broadcast workflow pipeline typically includes camera tracking hardware, real-time graphics rendering using Unreal Engine, sports broadcast graphics and control tools for playout. Together, these components form a broadcast AR graphics workflow that allows operators to manage live graphics for sports broadcasts quickly, from pre-match analysis to in-game events.
Mo-Sys solutions for sports broadcast combine Mo-Sys Virtual Production software, Unreal Engine, camera robotics and camera tracking . Mo-Sys provides bespoke packages to meet the needs of its clients, capable of delivering real-time graphics for sports broadcasts with precise alignment to the playing field and studio sets.
High-profile sports such as football, basketball, tennis and motor racing benefit significantly from real-time AR broadcast solutions due to their complex camera moves and data-rich narratives. However, any sports broadcast that requires engaging live sports AR graphics, robust broadcast graphics workflows and flexible sports TV graphics will gain production value from Mo-Sys systems.
