HELIOS® LED Processing Platform

Megapixel VR’s HELIOS LED Processing Platform reimagines processing from the ground up to support large-format LED displays for use in demanding pro AV, broadcast and installation applications. Leverage the newest 8K and HDR formats to drive screens with the greatest visual impact in only 1RU.

Full 8K Video Pipeline

Full HDR Support

Modular Inputs

Redundant Power Supply

No Software Required

Browser based platform on Mac, PC, and mobile devices for real-time mapping and multi-user control.

Virtual Production, XR, and Broadcast Ready

Including state-of-the-art features specifically designed with virtual production in mind, HELIOS provides the most advanced In-Camera Visual Effects tools to accelerate your workflow.

NanoSync

HELIOS has always synchronized the actual light output of the LED tile to the video or genlock source, and now you can dial in offsets by the nanosecond, giving the most accurate sync control of any LED system.

Ultra Low Latency

Set frame delay as low as 1 frame through the entire system chain without the need for custom EDIDs or high frame rates from the source.

Seamless Failover

Tiles receive data simultaneously from both primary and backup processors providing a seamless failover in the event of data interruption.

GhostFrame

Simultaneous capture of multiple video feeds hidden to the naked eye, a chromakey matte, and even hidden tracking markers via the HELIOS LED Processing Platform! GhostFrame makes the impossible possible for your virtual production, XR, and broadcast events.

Superior Color Performance

What you see on your grading monitor is what you will see on your LED display. HELIOS features the most accurate end-to-end color workflow in the industry. From video ingest to processing to display output, metadata is always honored to ensure color gamut, grayscale performance, and tone mapping look right the first time.

Dynamic Color

Gamut

HELIOS provides dynamic color gamut re-targeting and accurate end-to-end color management across a variety of colorspaces. Easily switch between Rec.2020, DCI-P3, REC.709 and more.

Advanced Color

Correction

A full 3×3 correction matrix is generated on-the-fly for each individual pixel based on the incoming signal’s metadata.

Cinema Grade

Accuracy

Performance quality is critical on set. Your in-camera content should look precisely the same as it was authored. Genlock from input all the way to the tile output. With high bit-depth and frame rates up to 240 fps, your images will look the way they were mastered.

Better Greyscale

Performance

More accurate shadow detail along with separation in highlights result in gorgeous images.

Future Proof Design

Scales to your needs by leveraging existing network infrastructure while maintaining the ability to upgrade processor inputs and LED display devices in the future.

N-Base Link Speed

2.5G links allow more flexible wiring topologies and better network resiliency.

IT Fiber

Makes use of your existing network or trunk larger systems over simpler topologies.

SFP+ Slots

Scale capacity with hot-pluggable SFP+ modules.

AVoIT Capable

Supports SMPTE 2110 for next generation connectivity.
