Viz Engine 4

The latest iteration of Viz Engine, the most powerful render engine for live media, provides unmatched real time performance, low latency media flows, stunning effects for photo realism and new compositing features.

Viz Engine 4 logo with rendering

The most anticipated release of Viz Engine brings big changes to how virtual studio sets and augmented reality elements are created, rendered and combined with live video.

The programmable graphics pipeline with physical based rendering and global illumination builds the foundation, with features like reflection and depth of field providing extra realism. All with the multi-matte keyer fusing live and virtual together.

This functionality is being exposed in a brand-new Viz Artist user interface with dramatic changes in both appearance and workflow.

The trusted Viz Engine 3 pipeline is available in 4, but Viz Engine 4 specifically focuses on design of virtual studio sets and augmented reality graphics for customers to see the most benefit.

  • BBC Sport delivers world class broadcast with Vizrt XR for Lionesses win
    For the BBC Sport’s coverage of the Women’s Euros 2025, Lightwell used Vizrt technology to deliver a virtual studio design that matched the scale of the tournament. To reflect the Swiss setting, the studio placed presenters inside a mountaintop pavilion overlooking Lake Lucerne, surrounded by alpine views, fluttering national flags, and skies that shifted with the time of day. More than just a backdrop, the environment grounded the coverage in the look and feel of Switzerland, while giving producers the creative flexibility of a fully virtual space. The virtual studio was built using our live graphics and real-time rendering tools in combination with Unreal Engine, allowing BBC Sport to deliver a high-end, immersive production without physical constraints. Viz Engine powered the real-time graphics and Unreal integration, while our Reality Connect placed the presenters naturally within the virtual set with accurate shadows, reflections, and lighting, creating a realistic and cohesive on-screen experience.
