Ross Video and the Future Group Rewrites Playbook for Virtual Studios

Ross Video and The Future Group’s Frontier, innovative virtual studio graphics rendering platforms produced by the collaborating companies are now available.

Frontier uses the superior unreal gaming engine, from Epic Games, as the render engine, which provides exceptional high-realism scenery through state-of-the-art features such as particle systems, dynamic textures, live reflections, and shadows and even collision detection. It is these cutting-edge video engines that Ross Video and The Future Group have developed and optimized for virtual studio broadcast environments to realize the Frontier broadcast advantage.

Used for rendering background scenery, or foreground objects, Frontier works seamlessly with Ross Video’s XPression motion graphics system, which provides workflow tools and data connectivity. The combination of Frontier with XPression guarantees the best of all worlds – photorealistic backgrounds and unparalleled creative freedom along with unmatched data connectivity, visual logic programming, and full support for major workflows.
