Blackmagic Design Ultimatte 12 4K Keyer Advanced Compositing Processor

Upgrade your real-time compositing for keying live-action video with the Ultimatte 12 Keyer Advanced Compositing Processor from Blackmagic Design. This latest version of the Ultimatte 12 adds 12G-SDI connectivity to advanced algorithms, improved spill suppression, colour science and separation, and excellent colour fidelity to help create truly photorealistic composites.
The Ultimatte 12 works in Ultra HD & HD with sub-pixel processing for an improved image. Designed for news, sports, and other types of production, this versatile unit offers realistic augmented reality layers and one-touch auto-keying. This 1 rack unit processor does not include the required Ultimatte Smart Remote 4.
Uses new algorithms and colour science, improved edge handling, colour separation, colour fidelity, and spill suppression to create photorealistic composites in UHD 4K and HD, all in real-time.
Designed for news, sports, narrative film and television, and entertainment productions using fixed cameras, static backgrounds, or virtual set systems. The ability to layer augmented reality objects enables talent to pre-visualize virtual sets when using a green screen.
New technology enables the Ultimatte 12 to add accurate keying parameters to multiple cameras, accounting for slight variations between the camera positions.
