Vizrt

Vizrt (/ˈvɪzɑːrt/), short for Visualization in Real-Time or Visual Artist, is a Norwegian company that creates content production, management, and distribution tools for the digital media industry. Its products include real-time 3D graphics systems, 3D reconstruction, visualized sports analysis, media asset management, and integrated workflow systems for the digital broadcast industry.

Vizrt has a customer base in more than 100 countries, and some 600 employees are distributed across 40 offices worldwide.

Viz software includes the tools Viz Pilot and Viz One, aimed at news organisations and digital broadcasters. Intended users include journalists whose traditional role as pure news-gatherers is extended to include controlling the flow of their story from a single point.

Vizrt products connect to newsroom control systems like Octopus Newsroom, iNews and ENPS. The software allows users to edit graphic templates, locate and edit archived video content, build playlists for on-air use, and distribute online content and maintain content on social media sites.

The company typically provides deliveries comprising software, hardware, consulting, installation, and support. Its head office is situated in Bergen, Norway.

Vizrt's usual customer base is composed of broadcasters and publishing houses. Vizrt is a privately owned company by Nordic Capital Fund VIII.

TV 2 Norway, a terrestrial television channel in Bergen, Norway, needed software to produce newsroom graphics. A spin-off company called Pilot Broadcast Systems AS was established in 1997, where the first template-based graphics system was created.

In 1999, Norway-based Pilot Broadcast Systems AS merged with the Austrian company, Peak Software Technologies GmbH (founded by Christian Huber, Karl-Heinz Klotz and Hubert Oehm), to form Peak Broadcast Systems. Peak Software was a developer of software for real-time 3D graphics and animation, virtual sets and playback control systems. The business fusion Peak Broadcast Systems, could now offer software for real-time 3D graphics creation and virtual sets, together with playout control.
