EVS has unveiled a unified orchestration layer to unify robotics systems into a single control environment. Part of EVS’s T-Motion solution, Choreon aims to drive new creative opportunities by enabling simultaneous control of multiple robotics systems in a single workflow. Reducing complexity and minimising the risk of human error, the platform enables smooth, complex camera movements that are difficult to achieve with traditional, isolated systems, said the company.
Supporting T-Motion’s full robotics portfolio, Choreon combines solutions such as PTZ cameras,robotic heads, tracks, elevators, rovers, jibs, gyro systems and Cablecam, as well as third-party devices for off-air positioning. The platform allows multiple users to work within the same setup, scaling to meet the demands of any production.
Choreon is designed around a human-led orchestration model, allowing operators to maintain control of creative processes. AI-assisted features including automated framing, path planning and dynamic motion profiling aim to ensure precision and consistency while reducing operator workload in high pressure live environments.
Speed, acceleration, motion curves and fine-tuning are standardised across all connected devices, allowing operators “feel” across every system and ensuring continuity when switching between devices. The platform features a high-brightness touchscreen, tactile control surface and enhanced haptic feedback. Hardware and software-based stop mechanisms, configurable safe zones and multi-sensor protection enables safe deployment when robotic systems are operated in close proximity to humans.
Benoit Dentan, VP T-Motion Robotics Solution at EVS, said, “Choreon represents a significant step forward in how robotic systems are deployed and managed in live production. We are moving beyond controlling individual devices to truly choreographing motion across an entire production. This makes it easier for teams to expand their use of robotics while preserving the human creative control that remains essential in live storytelling.”
“The launch of Choreon comes just months after our acquisitions of Telemetrics and XD Motion,” added Serge Van Herck, CEO of EVS. “It highlights strong and rapid synergies between our teams, combining decades of media robotics expertise with deep live production knowledge. With T-Motion and Choreon, we are proud to realise our vision of a fully integrated robotics solution within EVS, one that connects seamlessly with our broader live production ecosystem.”
Choreon is expected to meet the needs of a wide range of applications, from high-end broadcast and live sports to studio productions. It also supports use in immersive environments including AR, VR and XR.
