Vizrt & Panasonic Enhance KAIROS with Viz Mosart Automation & Viz Flowics Integration

New updates add Viz Mosart automated control capabilities and Viz Flowics compatibility to Panasonic’s KAIROS Live Production Platform

Vizrt, the leader in real-time graphics and live production solutions for content creators, today announces new compatibility with Panasonic’s flagship live production platform KAIROS, bringing Viz Mosart’s leading studio automation capabilities, and Viz Flowics’ HTML graphics rendering, direct to KAIROS users.

Unlocking creative power with automation

Viz Mosart is the award-winning studio production assistant, enabling the highest levels of production consistency and efficiency so that the most complex shows can be run error-free, every time. Viz Mosart automates device control throughout the studio, whilst maintaining flexible manual control at all times, so that content producers can focus on telling great stories

As part of Vizrt’s membership of the KAIROS Alliance Partner program, the new integration of Viz Mosart with KAIROS offers deeper levels of live video production control to users, unlocking new production flexibility and the ability to deliver rich content for broadcasts, live streams and more.

Commenting on the addition of Viz Mosart to the KAIROS platform, Kageyuki (Kenny) Fujimoto, lead manager of KAIROS Alliance Partners, said:

“The KAIROS open architecture easily enables the integration of third-party systems and applications. This addition of Viz Mosart production assistant solution is yet another example of listening and responding to our customer’s requirements. It’s also further evidence of the benefits coming from the KAIROS Alliance Partner program, where about 50 manufacturers and suppliers are collaborating across the production ecosystem to bring increased efficiency, flexibility and content quality to the industry – all based on the KAIROS live production platform.”

“Many customers choose Viz Mosart to really maximize the value of their studio investment, unlocking more creative power under each rundown item or button press. The flexibility of Panasonic KAIROS drives our workflows even further towards this aim, and with its integration Viz Mosart is consolidating its position at the cutting edge of software-defined studio production.” -Andy Newton, Senior Product Manager at Vizrt

Native HTML5 graphics with Viz Flowics

With growing demand from customers for native HTML 5 graphics support, new updates to the KAIROS platform also introduce direct Viz Flowics integration for the first time, allowing graphics generated by Viz Flowics to be rendered natively in KAIROS.

Viz Flowics is the most comprehensive SaaS platform for remote and in-studio production of interactive content and live graphics, enabling content creators to build stunning graphics from any location without the need for expensive hardware.

Not only can users now add graphics such as match scores, updates and tickers with this new development, but they can also effortlessly curate and include social media commentary as well as second screen audience engagement mechanics into any live production from news to sports, esports and corporate events.

“Using Viz Flowics graphics directly in KAIROS workflows not only simplifies and streamlines live production, but also enhances creative possibilities—this is a significant development for live production processes.” -Gabriel Baños, Founder, Viz Flowics
