What Chyron VSAR is

Chyron VSAR is virtual production software that combines Unreal Engine graphics with Chyron broadcast design, editorial, and live production capabilities. It supports green-screen virtual environments, augmented reality elements on physical sets, and tracked virtual set extensions that feed video walls. The scene toolkit lets teams edit Unreal elements, build 3D text and objects with data integration, and use weather and virtual-screen templates. Producers and journalists can use template-based scenes and models from an NRCS to create rundowns, preview changes, and send real-time updates to playout. VSAR can also be run manually or added to a CAMIO | NRCS-controlled rundown. Its Cesium tracking processor runs on the host machine without additional hardware and supports industry-standard tracking protocols; the Mercury Panel provides browser-accessible virtual camera control for trackless applications. Video support includes two cameras on one engine, SDI, HD and 4K UHD formats, and HDR. A dedicated engine can generate real-time SDI previews for confidence monitoring. It runs on Windows; pricing is available by request through Chyron or an authorized dealer.
