No doubt, AI Technology is finding it’s way into Virtual Production, Video & Film Production and Media delivery in many ways these days (and I mean literally, DAYS) and if there are some key players showing their tools and tech at NAB Show 2023 (Las Vegas, NV April 15-19), you won’t want to miss see them live! Beyond content creation and generative AI, NAB is about broadcasting and media delivery at its core – and AI is making a big impact in these areas as well.
Of course, most of the “meat” in this technology is still in development by the minute, and your best bang for the buck will be in attending some sessions on generative AI technology, tools and practical applications in the many Conference Sessions that run concurrently, there will still be some serious demo magic happening on the show floor and private demos around town. I’m hoping to provide a few that I’ve learned about here in one place. *Updated Mon 4/17

disguise + Move.ai
disguise announces its partnership with Move.ai. With this partnership, disguise and Move.ai are developing a custom AI technology based on real-time markerless motion capture software, Invisible. The integration of Invisible with the disguise platform aims to redefine real-time motion capture by removing the need for restrictive and costly mocap suits. The technology works by extracting natural human motion from video using advanced AI, computer vision, biomechanics and physics to automatically retarget the data to a character rig and create a virtual character that can mirror human motion in real time.
