Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 HD Mini Keyer/Advanced Compositing Processor:

Upgrade your real-time compositing for keying live action video with the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini Keyer/Advanced Compositing Processor from Blackmagic Design. This latest version of the Ultimatte 12 HD adds HDMI connectivity to advanced algorithms, improved spill suppression, color science and separation, and excellent color fidelity to help create truly photorealistic composites.

Uses new algorithms and color science, improved edge handling, color separation, color fidelity, and spill suppression to create photorealistic composites in 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

A new “realistic” layer compositing mode enables you to add translucent or tinted objects on top of the foreground.

One-touch keying dramatically lessens the time it takes to pull a key, using the auto key to set over 100 parameters once your set is well lit and white balanced.

Advanced image processing algorithms and an immense color space are used to generate internal mattes, so different parts of the image can be processed separately based on the colors in each area. This processing produces fine detail on hair and smooths color and object transitions.

Refined flare, edge, and transition processing enables you to remove the background without affecting the colors you want to retain, faithfully reproducing colors that are impossible on other keyers, such as a bright yellow dress in front of a green screen.

Improved flare algorithms can remove green tinting and spill from almost anything, creating true, realistic looking virtual environments, even when using shadows or transparent objects with reflections.

High-quality connections include an Ethernet port and HDMI ports that support up to 1080p60 video, and Program video outputs.

Dedicated connectors with loop outputs that are used for compositing include:

Inputs:

• Background
• Camera Foreground
• Monitor In

Output:

• Program Out
• Return
• Monitor Out
