Challenge

Broadcast partners needed production-grade AR visuals without six-figure tracking rigs. Unity had no turnkey live-broadcast flow, so synchronization, calibration, keying, and operator tooling all had to be designed and delivered in-house.

Approach

Led architecture and implementation for camera-to-engine sync, tracker calibration, chroma-key output, and runtime scene-edit workflows. Built supporting operator tools for composition, serialization, and alignment so teams could prepare and run shows repeatedly under real production constraints.

Outcome

Delivered a reusable AR production system used on Fox Sports 1, Red Bull TV, and Beyond The Summit (millions of Twitch viewers), proving reliable AR delivery on commodity hardware.
