When collaboration becomes the demo: Storm ISE

Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) in Barcelona brought together a wide range of technologies and partners across the AV and broadcast ecosystem, and Brainstorm was pleased to be part of the Alfalite stand during the show. Together with Dejero and several other partners, we contributed to the Storm ISE demonstration, a live-streamed, emergency response simulation connecting technologies across multiple booths.

Introducing Suite 7 at NAB

Suite 7 brings together the company’s flagship applications, including InfinitySet for virtual and XR production, Aston for real time graphics, and Edison for immersive virtual and AR live events, all powered by the eStudio render engine. This development focuses strongly on efficiency and workflow improvements, enabling advanced virtual production, graphics and AR pipelines to run on a single workstation while making better use of modern GPU architectures.

Opening the doors at Pinewood Studios

Brainstorm hosted an Open House at the Sony Digital Media Production Centre at Pinewood Studios! Attendees were able to explore how virtual production technologies are being used to create high quality content in a flexible and sustainable way, meet fellow innovators, and get inspired by the most advanced tools for virtual content creation. The Open House featured InfintiySet with a dedicated LED screen and Sony’s new Ocellus. Request a demo >

Suite 7 brings together all of the Brainstorm flagship products: InfinitySet, the most advanced virtual, XR and AR production solution; Aston, the designer’s choice for real-time 2D and 3D motion graphics; and Edison, the simple route to immersive virtual and AR live events. These applications can run on eStudio, Brainstorm’s acclaimed render engine, also updated as part of Suite 7. 

“Responding to our users, our goal with Suite 7 is around efficiency and workflows,” said Miguel Churruca, marketing and communications director at Brainstorm. “The new functionalities will make users’ lives easier when creating the most advanced virtual content, no matter the application.” 

With growing pressure on all businesses to embrace sustainability, long a commitment championed by Brainstorm, Suite 7 is focused on hardware and software efficiency and flexibility. It makes seamless use of dual GPU workstations, which boosts the performance of a single licence while minimising hardware footprint and energy costs. 

Integration within the suite delivers the fastest interoperability between the Brainstorm eStudio render engine and Unreal, again for highly efficient performance. In a virtual studio, for example, you can input three cameras, compose them with Unreal and output all three channels simultaneously in a single workstation. Alternatively, the architecture could be used for set extension or multiple AR objects in just one render node on one hardware device. 

InfinitySet and Aston both enjoy better interoperability and have new video wall management features including advanced options for the component graphics such as animated presets and interaction logic between templates. InfinitySet now includes 360˚ output per render, paving the way to content for virtual glasses. 

As well as new features like QuickStart and Teleporter for automatic talent tracking with 4k cameras, Edison now has a lite version. Eddie is specifically oriented towards education, while still being able to call on all the other elements of the Edison ecosystem. 

“Virtual environments, including augmented reality, are a central part of production for broadcast, movies, live events and AV,” added Churruca. “With Suite 7 we are liberating creativity by giving artists and designers the tools they need, which are responsive, fast to output, and make significant strides towards sustainability.”

A key highlight will be Suite 6.2, the latest version of InfinitySet, Aston, and eStudio, which will be demonstrated through a dynamic Elections show combining augmented reality (AR) and virtual production. Powered by InfinitySet with Unreal Engine 5.5, the demo will feature advanced capabilities including multi-scene management, talent tele-transportation, and hyper-realistic AR graphics with advanced rendering technologies, showcasing how InfinitySet blends real and virtual production in real time. The background scenes have been created by Fury XR, using several scenarios simultaneously so the talent can be tele-transported to any of them, creating a dynamic storytelling.

The setup employs one Telycam PTZ camera and two RED cameras with lenses, one mounted on a tracked crane and the other on rails from ABCS. This collaboration enables a fully remotely controlled production environment, ideal for space- or crew-constrained scenarios.

This demo also underscores the raw processing power and optimized software performance of InfinitySet. Thanks to its Dual GPU support and the recently certified NVIDIA Blackwell architecture, a single workstation can handle complex virtual production tasks, spanning chroma sets, multiple camera inputs, and real-time AR graphics. Key features like extra-render, 3D LUT-based real set extension, and immersive talent tele-transportation will be on full display, emphasizing performance, scalability, and ease of use.

Addressing the vital role of motion graphics in today’s broadcast landscape, Brainstorm will introduce new Aston features designed for hyper realistic data-driven AR graphics and collaborative, multi-channel workflows. A major addition is Instances, a centralized asset system that allows designers to reuse pre-compositions across templates and projects. These graphics can be embedded into immersive virtual environments, including Unreal Engine scenes, enabling seamless interaction with both talent and the virtual set.

“We’re thrilled to return to Broadcast India and highlight the powerful capabilities our products bring to content creators, showcasing not only the most advanced virtual production, but also how its combination with real-time data-drive graphics can enhance broadcasting” said Francisco Gallego, India & EMEA Sales Executive at Brainstorm. “As virtual production continues to expand across broadcast, film, and corporate sectors in India, Brainstorm’s decades-long expertise in real-time 3D graphics ensures our clients maintain their competitive edge.”

InfinitySet, Brainstorm’s award-winning virtual set and augmented reality solution, performs at its best by using the camera view plus the tracking data provided by the different Spidercam systems. Such systems not only provide creative camera angles, but by using InfinitySet for adding advanced, real-time 3D AR content, allows for new and impressive ways to deliver Sports and other live events’ content to a worldwide audience.

“Brainstorm seems the perfect combination for Spidercam” says Jan Peters, CEO of Spidercam. “The camera angles and flies Spidercam provide can also be enhanced with the real-time 3D augmented reality graphics by InfinitySet, providing an enhanced storytelling to impress an increasingly demanding audience”.

Brainstorm and Spidercam enjoy a considerable track record of mutual co-operation and have successfully deployed installations in events such as the coverage of the WWE season, including Royal Rumble and other events. With the advanced rendering capabilities of Brainstorm’s InfinitySet, including the Combined Render Engine with Unreal Engine, real-time ray tracing or PBR materials, the photorealistic results provided can be as real as reality itself.

According to Miguel Churruca, Marketing & Communications Director of Brainstorm, “Working with Spidercam has always been a pleasure because of the way they track big spaces allows for our augmented reality elements to stand out thanks to the wide camera movements they can provide. The willingness and vast experience of their staff makes the collaboration seamless on a human level. At Brainstorm we are always pushing the envelope when it comes to technology, and integrating with Spidercam seems only natural since they’re on the cutting-edge of robotics camera technology”.
