IQ vPilot

AI-Driven Automated Studio

Virtual Cameraman and Director

vPilot is an automated studio system utilizing the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI). It is a studio set-up that does not require camera people or an onsite director but designed to create visually compelling content. Ideal for lower cost studio productions, vPilot can be utilized for a range of production requirements including studio round table discussions, news delivery, speaking events and corporate communications. vPilot uses the power of AI to direct the cameras and to automatically direct the shots based on who is talking and their importance within the discussion. Solution functionality mimics a real director, leaving the presenters to do what they do best — host a professional broadcast.
