AI enables the production of high-quality images in real time for live events. Images automatically delivered through Advanced HDR by Technicolor are comparable to the output produced by more complicated post-production solutions -- such as movies -- which require days of manually-intensive fine tuning.
AI technology embedded in Advanced HDR by Technicolor enables broadcasters and over-the-top (OTT) providers to deliver consistent image quality, regardless of the content source (video-on-demand, live, post production / live production).
Advanced HDR by Technicolor is a superior alternative to existing solutions because it integrates tunable (vs fixed) and adaptive (vs static) conversion capabilities. It is an improvement over:
Adaptive solutions embedded in Advanced HDR by Technicolor enable each image to be optimized in real time. This addresses issues that frequently arise when producing live sports that feature changing light conditions. Advanced HDR by Technicolor automatically copes with large shifts in lighting that often occur over the course of outdoor live event broadcasts.
The adaptive features also remove limitations imposed by static converters that restrict the creative options available to video engineers. This enables engineers to produce both SDR and HDR content with high levels of quality through a single-production flow by simultaneously generating outputs in both formats. The AI technology embedded in Advanced HDR by Technicolor enables the unique ability to achieve high-quality results through an efficient, real-time, automated process.
Advanced HDR by Technicolor optimizes the integration of both HDR and SDR cameras during production of live events. The solution leverages Technicolor ITM tuning capabilities to set and match any native HDR image so that SDR sources (including live camera shots as well as regular and slow-motion replays) can be appropriately up-converted in real-time, without disrupting production consistency. Once SDR cameras and Advanced HDR by Technicolor are tuned prior to an event, the AI functionality automatically adapts images in real time. This introduces unprecedented operational efficiencies. It frees video engineering talent to focus on higher-order activities, while simultaneously reducing costs by simplifying multiple -- and concurrent -- conversion processes from different SDR sources.
During live productions, video engineers can tune the system to meet aesthetic preferences prior to events and allow Advanced HDR by Technicolor to generate HDR output in real time.
