nxtedition’s XR/Mixed Reality studio control is an innovative, transformative solution for modern broadcast production, seamlessly blending XR/MR technology with nxtedition’s unified control environment. This approach allows directors to transcend the limitations of traditional control rooms, enabling them to manage live productions from virtually any location with unprecedented flexibility.

A key innovation is nxtedition’s use of "passthrough" technology, which overlays digital displays onto the real world. This allows for seamless interaction between virtual and physical production elements—such as vision mixers—enabling directors to manage every aspect of a broadcast with real-time precision. By connecting directly to nxtedition via a VR headset’s built-in browser, the system eliminates the need for additional software or computers. This streamlined setup simplifies installation, enhances reliability, and ensures a highly responsive experience, avoiding the latency and technical issues often associated with remote desktop solutions.

One standout feature is the ability to connect physical devices, such as an iPad, to nxtedition and transform them into versatile production tools like shot-boxes. Directors can control cameras, cue graphics, and manage other critical production elements from any location—whether in a traditional studio or remotely, even from home or outdoors.

By integrating traditionally separate tools into a single, consolidated interface, nxtedition’s XR/Mixed Reality control drastically reduces operational complexity and costs. It meets the growing demand for remote production with unmatched flexibility and efficiency, setting a new standard in the broadcast industry.

nxtedition's XR/Mixed Reality studio control is a truly groundbreaking solution that redefines live broadcast production. Its seamless integration of XR/MR technology into a unified control environment empowers directors to manage entire live broadcasts remotely, without the constraints of a physical control room. This leap in flexibility and control marks a significant advancement for the industry.

This solution is a compelling example of using the new tools in a new way rather than just using a remote desktop or KVM as a solution. In a world where remote production and efficiency are becoming increasingly vital, nxtedition’s XR/Mixed Reality studio control is a big step forward toward a consolidated future-proof solution for broadcasters.
