“A fantastic immersive player experience”
Kevin Scharf, Director and R&D Game Lead at Riot Games

"What I love about Pixotope and their implementation of AR is that it met our goals of creating this fantastic immersive player experience of having a virtual idol perform at the biggest regional League of Legends event in China. From the visual smoke effects to the matched lighting of her glow stick, they ensured Akali looked and felt present at the event. They also solved every crazy hurdle that came upon this project, all with total professionalism and a great sense of humor. They are a stacked team of creative and technical wizards, that is for sure.”

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND OUR AR SOLUTIONS: 

WHAT MAKES PIXOTOPE DIFFERENT 

GRAPHICAL FIDELITY

WITH HIGH FRAME RATES

With Pixotope technology, you can render and composite video and graphics in one pass.

Unlike other Unreal-based systems, our augmented reality software does not need to render shadows, reflections, refractions, bloom, or translucency separately, which means that we have zero performance overhead for integrating video with these effects. 


So you can add more models, textures, dynamic lights and shadows, and effects on screen at the same time, and still retain high frame rates.

PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY

OF YOUR VIDEO

With Pixotope AR solutions, you can always be sure of optimal video quality and performance.

By separating video processing from graphics rendering we can guarantee the integrity of the video.

A modern microservice architecture means that Pixotope is processing rendering, video i/O, chroma keyer and camera tracking in separate processes on the machine, which do not directly interact with each other.

They can fail individually without directly affecting other parts.

FAQs

What is augmented reality (AR)? In augmented reality productions, a virtual element is inserted into a three-dimensional real-world setting.
How does augmented reality work?

Augmented reality works by inserting virtual objects into real-time video feeds. To do this in a truly effective and photo realistic way, the first step is to have a “digital twin” or representation of the real world in your virtual environment. Although this will never be seen, it will allow the virtual objects that will be seen to appear “interact” with real world objects such as lights, walls etc.
