PDCC-1110 series digital chromakey

PDCC-1110 series digital chromakey is intended to pruduce the composed picture consisting of an image of an actor (a foreground object placed in front of a colored screen) and any background rear image.

Under normal studio conditions the PDCC-1110 chromakey is capable to provide artifact-free compositions:

  • the foreground picture is represented without any noticeable resolution and detalisation loss
  • any semi-transparent areas of the foreground objects retain some degree of opacity and do not obscure the background details underneath them
  • borders of such semi-transparent areas do not fluctuate
  • the hue of semi-transparent areas and reflective surfaces is not altered by the color of the background screen

Technical specifications

Features

  • ChromaKey and LumaKey modes
  • any background color
  • Automated scene composition: coursor/pointer driven backgroung color selection, silhuette signal management
  • Mix and additive keying modes
  • built-in 2x1 switchers on the foregroung and background inputs allows for the four composed scenes in any combination
  • an external α-signal input allows for a multi-layered compositions, where foregroung/backgroung priorities are assigned by α-signal; or a basic titling capability
  • built-in one-TV-frame storages on each foreground input, their contens may be used along with "live" foreground inputs for the chromakey setup
  • all pictures previewable: a composed one, a foreground only, a background only, a silhuette signal, a foreground scene with the suppressed background color, α-signal
  • remotely controllable from a desktop console and/or a PC
  • GPI and GPO commands supported

  • INPUT SELECT field:
    • four buttons selecting the foreground/background signals' combination
  • MODE field:
    • α ON button - toggles the α-signal ON/OFF
    • CHROMAKEY and LUMAKEY LEDs - display the operational mode respectively
  • PGM and PST buttons toggle the chromakey preparation mode ON/OFF
  • When the PST button is lit - the PDCC-1110 chromakey is in the preparation mode: operator is able to set up the parameters and composition.
    When the PGM button is lit - the setup controls are disabled, the chromakey is functional.
  • the touch-screen
  • All the setups are grouped as the six pages presented at the touch-screen.
  • the rotary switch
  • All the editable parameters are preset with this control. The parameter's current value is being displayed on the touch-screen.
