Brainstorm Releases InfinitySet Lite

Brainstorm has released InfinitySet Lite at NAB New York 2024.

InfinitySet Lite is the latest addition to Brainstorm's acclaimed InfinitySet product line, offering a streamlined interface and toolset while maintaining the same top-tier quality standards that have made InfinitySet a favourite in the broadcast and studio markets for virtual content creation.

Designed to meet the demands of a broad range of virtual production setups—from simple to complex—InfinitySet Lite delivers exceptional performance and flexibility. By providing a more cost-effective option, Brainstorm aims to make high-quality virtual production accessible to more creators, without compromising on performance or visual quality.

Virtual Production can be created with a variety of workflows and setups, some extremely complex involving several renders and tracking devices, and other significantly simpler by using PTZ cameras to deliver the tracking information. InfinitySet Lite has been developed to work seamlessly with PTZ cameras, providing all the tools required to create outstanding virtual content, but removing from the equation the complex set up and calibration of standard tracking installations, such as pedestals, cranes and other large setups. InfinitySet Lite starts with the basic features that allow any content creator to fulfil their virtual production needs using PTZ cameras but can be expanded with options and eventually become a fully configured InfinitySet.

InfinitySet Lite works out of the box in SDI or 2110 environments, and it is fully compatible with Unreal Engine, allowing users to leverage the power of Unreal’s real-time rendering alongside Brainstorm’s advanced features. It includes Brainstorm’s advanced Differential Chroma Keyer but can also use other hardware keyers if the client prefers. Its operation has been limited to output 2K resolutions, simplifying the hardware required to run the system and reducing operation costs, while maintaining the raw power of InfinitySet for rendering hyper-realistic scenes. InfinitySet Lite can be controlled remotely by InfinitySet OnDemand and can run along with InfinitySet in larger or more complex installations that include several workstations or renders per camera.

David Moldes, Brainstorm’s Product Manager commented: "With the increased use of PTZ cameras for Virtual Production, many of our clients requested a solution specific to such environments, that do not require the features, power or skill set that the highly complex fully tracked installations require. InfinitySet Lite is Brainstorm’s answer to this demand, offering the core capabilities of InfinitySet in an easy-to-use and more cost-effective solution."
