Moncada and Lorenzo complete the robotization of the set with augmented reality at Aragón Tv

The Aragonese regional government has integrated robotics into its new news set equipped with augmented reality. Vinten, a prompting system Autoscript and a solution for camera tracking Mon-Sys whose supply, installation and commissioning has been carried out by Moncada and Lorenzo.

Robotization has been carried out with a camera system Vinten formed by 6 FH-155 / FE 165 / FP-188+ robotic heads, columns and pedestals, which are operated from the control post. This solution is easy to configure, operate and maintain and can work with cameras weighing up to 65 kilos.

Regarding the teleprompting system of Autoscript It is based on IP technology. The devices Intelligent Prompting They offer the flexibility to easily integrate over an IP network, pool resources and implement fail-safe redundancy measures for live broadcast. Its IP architecture makes this solution highly scalable, ensuring benefits in any phase of an IP transition, while opening the door to continuous workflow improvements.

Intelligent Prompting devices offer the flexibility to easily integrate over an IP network, pool resources anywhere in the world, and implement fail-safe redundancy measures for live broadcasting.

AR/VR on set

The project culminates with the installation and commissioning of 2 StarTracker camera tracking systems from Mon-Sys for AR/VR optical sensing.

The system is based on a constellation of “stars” (retroreflective stickers) fixed to the ceiling of the set. A small LED sensor, mounted on the camera, illuminates the stars defining the star map, which allows the StarTracker to report the position and orientation of the camera in real time to the rendering engine. In this way, it guarantees unlimited freedom of movement and provides precise position, rotation and aim data in real time, making it ideal for Steadicam and handheld cameras.

While other systems typically have limited tracking volume, StarTracker can track surveys between 3m and 20m high. Because the camera's tracking sensor points upward instead of looking into the scene, tracking is not affected by studio conditions such as moving objects, set changes, lighting setups, reflections, and green screen environments...
