Pixotope is a holistic, award-winning virtual production software that allows you to design, create, and control every aspect of your production project.
Pixotope is a virtual production solution that drives rapid creation of virtual studios, augmented reality (AR), Extended reality (XR), and Mixed reality (MR).
Some of our exciting features include:
Marrying the power of digital and real-world content to drive exciting visual experiences.
Pixotope's XR solution provides proprietary, off-axis rendering and mapping capabilities. Our software allows users to output their rendering to LED screens and volumes, which utilizes our standard Pixotope workflow. Our WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) editor requires no baking or compilation when it comes to making changes to your content.
XR has been gaining a lot of traction in the recent years, especially in the virtual production industry. Ironically, it’s also a consuming term for many people. According to the VP Glossary, which was created by the Visual Effects Society and the American Society of Cinematographers, defines Extended Reality (XR) as “an umbrella term for virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR), and all future realities such technology might bring.”
While this a rather broad definition, the glossary does equate XR to VP. However, XR is more commonly used to describe the use of large LED volumes to create virtual environments that can be interacted with.
The Pixotope solution for XR is a proprietary off-axis rendering and mapping solution for rendering outputs to LED screens and volumes, part of the standard Pixotope workflows, including our WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) Editor, which requires no baking or compilation when making changes to the content.
To effectively use Pixotope’s XR solution, users can easily drag in an “XR Wall” into their virtual environment, which can be used as a representation of a physical display screen.
Augmented Reality (AR) provides an interactive experience that combines the real-world and virtual content. A great example of this would be the virtual counterpart of the NFL team Carolina Panthers’ mascot. The infamous panther was seen jumping around their stadium and tearing up their competitor’s flag.
With AR technology rapidly evolving over time, AR is now more accessible and affordable for smaller productions and projects.
Pixotope offers a holistic AR solution for virtual production, so that you can focus on what you do best–creating experiences that delight your audience.
Powered by Unreal Engine’s platform capabilities, Pixotope is built with a fully native implementation of Unreal for all workflows—unlike those legacy CG systems that are an Unreal plugin renderer. Our software ensures that you won’t need to compromise on your productions’ quality or performance.

Trusted by the best players in the industry, Pixotope is the perfect choice when it comes to creating amazing live productions.
Our software is the go-to solution when it comes to live Augmented Reality and virtual production.
Augmented Reality immerses the viewer into new experiences. We understand that in the broadcasting world, it's imperative that our clients deliver the very best program and on-demand content.
Pixotope combines camera tracking and real-time rendering to create an immersive virtual experience. Using high-resolution LED screens or projection surfaces in the space, our software allows on-screen talent to be immersed in a virtual environment.
For photo-realistic rendering and compositing in real-time, Pixotope can ensure high visual fidelity with incredible, realistic graphics for eSports broadcasting.
Combining camera tracking, motion capture, and data-driven graphics into a single Augmented Reality solution, Pixotope is ideal for on-air use with its rapid design and deployment feature for virtual, augmented, or mixed reality content.
Pixotope is a XR, AR, and VR solution for the broadcasting and production industry. Empowered by cutting-edge technology, Pixotope allows its user to rapidly create virtual studios, AR content, XR experiences, and real-time, on-air graphics. Our platform is specifically designed to connect with partner technologies and external data sources.
Pixotope is revolutionizing the way virtual production is done. With our help, many broadcasters are able to boost performance, decrease the workflow process, and improve cross-reality content production.
Pixotope utilizes Epic Games’ Unreal Engine as a foundation. Powered by Unreal, Pixotope helps designers produce photorealistic rendering in real-time. The amalgamation of Unreal's and Pixotope's technologies enable users to rapidly create virtual sets, virtual environments, and augmented content, along with terrain and foliage, particle systems (rain, smoke, fire, hair, cloth, explosions etc.), simulated camera and lens properties (lens distortion, depth of field, and chromatic aberration).
Pixotope is specifically designed for on-air use. Quickly design and deploy your virtual, augmented, and mixed reality content with ease. Create, configure, and control your production from a singular user interface.
Whether you choose to create content using Pixotope’s unique auto-set generation tool or build your own content from scratch using its specialised WYSIWYG editing tools, Pixotope harnesses the power of Unreal Engine and real-time rendering to create anything from a single camera project to a live, multi-camera virtual studio production at premium cinematic quality.

At Pixotope, we always have one eye on the future, and the future of Virtual Production solutions lies in the talent of the next generation: the young people at universities and other educational establishments.
That’s why we have developed the Pixotope Education Program: a partnership with educational institutions that offers access to cutting-edge production technologies, guiding students in the creation of virtual studios, augmented reality, and extended reality experiences.
Virtual production has been used in productions around the world to create content that captivates and inspires and can be applied to any live events, sports, esports, advertising, broadcasting or film-making industry. The possibilities are endless!
Although they happen in a virtual world, many of the workflows and best practices are the same - for example where a lighting designer in traditional production would work with physical lights, in a virtual production they need to also work with virtual lights to match the physical and virtual worlds. The key difference between traditional and virtual production is that virtual production removes limitations on creativity - with virtual elements the only limitation is our imagination.
Like any production, the cost of virtual production depends on the scale and nature of the content being produced. Virtual production can also provide significant savings by removing the need for costly set builds or travel to location and reducing overall production time.
