About the Architecture

The Vizky plug-in is part of Vizrt's solution for real-time 3D graphics on the web. Viz Multi Platform Suite enables content providers to create interactive components for their website, utilizing the same technology as in Vizrt's proven broadcast graphics solutions. The technology is easy to use and integrates seamlessly into existing workflows.

The Viz Multi Platform Suite was developed to streamline the process of distributing content to multiple devices with different technical specifications. The goal was to provide a solution that produces the best possible content for each individual format; without the need for additional production pipelines.

The solution is a part of Vizrt's product suite, and as such integrates seamlessly with existing Vizrt content creation and control tools. Viz Artist 3.0 remains the designers' choice for graphic scenes creations, while Vizrt's control tools, Viz Trio and Viz Content Pilot, combined with the Viz Multi Platform Suite, are capable of updating thousands of client-displays with video and graphical content. Viz Multi Platform Suite allows the distribution of content with the push of a single button: effortlessly, fast, and to standard TV as well as all Viz Multi Platform Suite client platforms.

Viz Multi Platform Suite also integrates with the the Ardome media asset management solution. With this option integrated in the solution content can be published to the web and to mobiles directly from the video search and edit interface. Again, the push of a single button is all that's required to "publish to mobile" or "publish to web".

There are four main methodologies in Viz MPS:

  • MPS Publish
  • MPS Broadcast
  • MPS Graphics on Demand (G.O.D.)
  • MPS Images on Demand (I.O.D)

MPS Publish enables you to create interactive components for your website based on the same technology as the broadcast graphics solutions from Vizrt. The scenes created with Viz Artist can be published directly to a website.

To add live data from external data sources and feeds, turn to MPS Broadcast, which requires the MPS Broadcast Workflow. This tool allows you to take interactivity and real-time data visualization to the next level, offering unique opportunities to generate revenue in novel ways.

For example, Personalization empowers you to differentiate the user experience based on the individual profiles of your users. This can be deployed for customized ads based on any demographic information in your data source. It can also allow for customized content based on demographics or geography.

G.O.D. (Graphics On Demand) converts data you have stored into custom visualizations using stellar 3D Viz graphics. This powerful feature can be deployed for scenarios such as the visualization of financial or other statistical data, or even customized greeting cards.

Taken together, for television broadcasters, entirely new viewing paradigms can be created, whereby the viewer watches a show, such as a sporting event or game show, and follows along with the laptop on the coffee table, either viewing more details or even participating in the event. Add customized advertising to the mix and you have the potential to harness an especially lucrative new revenue stream.
