UPDATE: Virtual Placement -- Powerful Virtual Graphics
Virtual Placement from ChyronHego is a powerful tool that turns the complex art of placing virtual graphics within live video into a quick and simple process. Virtual Placement can be used in many different live broadcast scenarios, from augmenting physical studio sets with virtual objects or live broadcast graphics and video feeds to enhancing much larger scenes such as sports arenas, race tracks, or landscapes. At the 2015 NAB Show, ChyronHego will showcase the latest release of Virtual Placement, which features the all-new Scene Tracking engine that allows for sensorless real-time and true 3D camera tracking in almost any environment. Scene Tracking is specifically targeted at live sports production. In addition, Virtual Placement now enables deployment of virtual graphics using Steadicams and jibs. ChyronHego will demonstrate this capability in an integration of Virtual Placement with the StypeGRIP augmented reality solution for Stanton Jimmy Jibs USA.

UPDATE: Paint -- Bringing Game Play to Life
ChyronHego's Paint product family offers advanced production analysis and telestration tools designed specifically for the needs of sports broadcasters. Within a game, dozens of telestrated clips can be created live or stored at the ready for near-live replays or post-match analysis. At the 2015 NAB Show, ChyronHego will release a new version of Paint that includes comprehensive support for 4K productions, enabling broadcasters to introduce and telestrate a 4K stream in an HD broadcast without any loss of resolution. Also at the show, ChyronHego is launching an all-new version of Paint for Mac(R) platforms. And, for the first time at NAB, the company will showcase Paint Live, a solution targeting live OB productions with the ability to telestrate fill and key output.
