In their own words
Zero Density Reality
Zero Density Reality 5 is a real-time graphics platform for virtual studios, augmented and extended reality, on-air graphics, and videowall production. Its workflow brings together Unreal Engine ZD Version, NODOS, and Reality Hub for content creation, compositing, and live playout. NODOS processes real-time video I/O and logic in a node-based compositor separate from Unreal Engine. Reality Hub provides browser-based control; shop bundles specify Chrome or Edge on a modern computer without a client installation. The Lino workflow lets designers create a graphic template for use across shows and channels. Reality Hub can ingest data from web services, databases, XLSX files, and CSV files, and the platform supports newsroom, automation, and custom integrations. NODOS lists support for FreeD, Xync, Mo-Sys, Stype, and Telemetrics tracking protocols. The Open Studio License Program offers no-cost access to eligible applicants, subject to approval and conditions. Paid bundles include the On-Air Graphics option at $4,888 a year and the Augmented Reality option at $16,992 a year; bundle capabilities vary. The platform lists Linux, macOS, web, and Windows support.
