Ultimatte 12 HD Mini - Real‑time HDMI keyer for broadcast‑quality chroma keying, 10‑bit processing, advanced spill suppression, 6GB internal media storage for seamless virtual‑set workflows

Real‑time HDMI keyer for broadcast‑quality chroma keying, 10‑bit processing, advanced spill suppression, 6GB internal media storage for seamless virtual‑set workflows

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini è un keyer hardware in tempo reale progettato per creare chroma key di qualità broadcast, set virtuali fotorealistici e compositing avanzato anche con camere HDMI di largo consumo. il keyer analizza il colore dello sfondo (di solito verde o blu) e lo rimuove con precisione, isolando il soggetto e preparandolo per l’inserimento in un ambiente virtuale. Grazie alle connessioni HDMI e agli algoritmi Ultimatte 12, offre la stessa qualità dei modelli superiori in un formato compatto ed economico, ideale per studi video, streaming professionale, e‑learning e produzioni live.  

Pensato per integrarsi perfettamente con Blackmagic Studio Camera e gli switcher ATEM Mini, dispone di un archivio fotogrammi interno da 6 GB che permette di caricare sfondi e livelli grafici per creare set virtuali realistici senza ricorrere a sistemi esterni. La sua elaborazione a 10 bit, la separazione colore evoluta e la correzione della contaminazione garantiscono contorni puliti, capelli dettagliati e composizioni naturali anche in condizioni di ripresa non perfette. N.B. L’apparecchio combina in tempo reale il soggetto ripreso e lo sfondo virtuale, generando un segnale video già compositato, pronto per la diretta o la registrazione.
