Real Time CG System

SmartDirect RCG

Simple introduction of real-time CG!

Real-time CG (RCG) was formerly thought to face high hurdles such as the need to introduce a large-scale system and the operations that include CG creation, but FOR-A’s SmartDirect RCG system completely overturns these assumptions.

FOR-A’s SmartDirect RCG system is offered as a turnkey system integrating all elements including a video I/O board (MBP-1244), CG rendering engine, and control software. This means that customers can complete the required hardware introduction simply by mounting a PTZ (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) sensor onto a camera. An option is also available for using Qoncept’s QUU marker-less sensor, which does not require a hardware sensor, in place of the PTZ sensor. The intuitive and simple user interface does not need any special training for operation, which minimizes the lead time  introduction to operation.
FOR-A’s SmartDirect RCG system realizes all of these features at an incredibly low cost. For broadcast stations and video production professionals who have been considering the introduction of RCG, the time to act is now!
