Extended Reality (xR)

Extend reality, reduce delays

Extended reality (xR) is technology that allows you to merge real and virtual worlds using a blend of techniques known as Virtual Production (VP), Augmented reality (AR) and Mixed Reality (MR). This technology enables the production of new environnements and visualizations, where physical and digital objects co-exist in real time. By using it, you can create a fully immersive experience for your live events, virtual production shootings, TV shows, films, and more.

SMODE xR technology orchestrates LED, real-time content, and camera tracking to power production environments. Content can be created with the industry leading 3D engines such as Unreal Engine and Notch, as well as with the 3D internal engine of SMODE, or a combination of both. SMODE xR is compatible with most tracking systems and technologies available on the market.

SMODE xR produces opportunities for collaboration, combining teams and technologies to drive a single artistic vision.

Calibration Master

SMODE provides perfectly calibrated latency, color, and placement of screens - essential requirements for xR productions!

  • Latency: Automatically evaluate the frame delay between sending a picture to the stage and receiving it back through the camera.
  • Geometry: Automatically align the virtual world with the real world.
  • Color: Perfectly blend the walls’ colors with the virtual surrounding.

Native Unreal Engine integration

Drag and drop unlimited .umap files. Play them directly from SMODE via Unreal Editor or nDisplay.

Simply import the SMODE Plugin for Unreal into the Unreal maps. Select which actors and components you want to expose, and they become available for show control in SMODE.

Native Notch integration

SMODE lets you import your creation from Notch, one of the best real time generative engines on the market. Mix Notch and SMODE contents to go further in your realtime creation workflow!

  • Notch blocks can be dragged and dropped in SMODE as post-FX or content layers.
  • Get your exposed properties back in SMODE.
  • Support for side-by-side front and back plate rendering.

Collaborative high-end media server

Every minute counts on a set. SMODE-Net helps you speed up the whole production process by creating a network with unlimited remotes and media servers.

Let more people contribute to the project in real time with remote machines: SMODE’s workflow conveniently separates the content and pipeline parts, so that both creative and technical teams can work together in parallel.

Chain multiple media servers to scale the rendering capabilities and let go of resolution limits!
