RealLine by stYpe is a data recorder for virtual production that bridges the gap between live and post-production workflows. It bundles essential tools for recording, alignment, and calibration of tracking data, making it easier to deliver accurate and consistent results across AR, VR, XR, and VFX pipelines. With RealLine, production teams gain confidence that every tracked move is ready for both real-time use and detailed post-production.
Key Features of the RealLine Data Recorder
- Tracking data recorder: capture camera, object, and skeleton tracking in real time with exports to FBX, JSON, and STMaps
- Camera integration: supports RED and ARRI with frame-accurate start/stop synchronization
- 3D representation: visualize tracked items in 3D during shooting for instant feedback
- Auto alignment: instantly align multiple tracking sources, including third-party systems, into one shared coordinate space
- Real-time protocol conversion: convert tracking protocols on the fly for mixed-vendor pipelines
- 4-point calibration: calculate zero point and graphics ground plane without PTZ positions, perfect for stadiums and arenas
- WARP module: apply lens distortion and film-back offsets for flawless matchmoving in Maya, Nuke, DaVinci Resolve, Blender, Cinema4D, and Unreal Engine

Why It Matters
From stadium advertising to cinematic matchmoving, RealLine ensures that tracking data remains consistent, accurate, and usable at every stage. As a result, productions reduce technical overhead, cut down on rework, and save valuable time. In addition, RealLine integrates seamlessly with RedSpy, Follower, and StypeLand to create a complete ecosystem for camera and object tracking.
