The Ultimatte 12 HD is a real-time hardware keyer that produces broadcast-quality composites for virtual sets, weather and live production, handling HD video.
Overview
Ultimatte is the industry standard for live keying, blending a foreground subject with a virtual background so cleanly that fine detail like hair and shadows hold up on air.
