What RadStudio is
RadStudio is a turnkey digital broadcast production system for creating real-time 3D virtual studio content. It combines live camera, microphone, and audio mixer feeds with prerecorded movies, sound, text, and graphs. Producers arrange scenes with a drag-and-drop interface, adding logos, 3D objects, video, images, audio, and overlays; layered elements can be changed while a show is on air. Image-processing camera tracking supports six degrees of freedom, with a listed delay of 7 frames and no special-purpose tracking sensors required. The system also offers automatic real-time chroma keying without dedicated chroma-keying hardware. Its DirectX renderer lists effects including dynamic lighting, multi-texturing, bump and shadow mapping, glow, HDR, fog, and reflection. The scene manager supports 3ds, DirectX Mesh, and Google SketchUp object formats, while the maker names Blender, 3ds Max, Maya, and Lightwave for set and object creation. Configurations vary in production space, camera inputs, included scenes, live insert, video adjustment, and redundancy. Pricing and model details require contacting the maker.
