Aximmetry also has its own advanced keying technology which is included in all licences. The company’s solutions cover all aspects of advanced broadcast presentation: tracked virtual sets, Augmented Reality (AR), interactive touch-screen displays, data-driven graphics, virtual product placement, and audience interaction via second-screen devices.
