Unmatched flexibility beyond aspect ratios

What is so fantastic about the KAIROS is that it's independent as far as aspect ratio goes. It's just such a Swiss army knife of production, in that it is very capable to work with our LED wall as well as our production graphics, using macros, and using scenes.

Effortless splitting and
rotation for LED walls.

Sometimes we‘re cutting the wall into four pieces or two pieces or six pieces and then rotating them. With KAIROS, we could use some of these more complicated video mappings that we would normally only do if we had built the system from scratch.

When using ST 2110 or HDMI output, the resolution can be freely set within the following range of conditions.
Any resolution can be set without being restricted to standard formats.

Maximum resolution: 9.8 megapixels Adjustable pixel units : 4 pixels

* Supported from Ver. 2.0.

Format-free Canvas

The Canvas function enables the
production of videos in a special format,
such as 32:9 for wall display, in addition
to the standard 16:9 format. Up to 12K
(66M pixels) resolution is supported at
Kairos Core 2000 series. With the freely

Advanced pre-production to
meet diverse needs

Thanks to KAIROS we can respond to such expectations by fully leveraging GPU capacity for extensive pre-production, including content selection, transitions and layer composition implemented with unconstrained MEs and keys. Initially, we were unsure about the benefits we could deliver with our new IP switcher, but such concerns have proven to be unfounded because we now offer customers a much wider range of production capabilities.

Layered effects with
unrestricted number of MEs

Unlike the conventional hardware-based switcher, KAIROS is unrestricted by the number of MEs or keys. Layers can be
added as the GPU capacity permits
similar to the layers of a standard image-
editing app, allowing you to set the keys
and scaling freely. The Kairos Core 2000
in particular has significantly increased
the number of layers by increasing the
GPU video processing capacity to
enable more complex and advanced
video expressions.
System software V1.5 includes 2.5D
DVE support (rotation and position
adjustment using X, Y and Z axis).

Comparison of Conventional Hardware-Based Switchers and KAIROS

KAIROS is not bound by ME/KEY structures, allowing
layers to be added freely.

Conventional hardware-based switchers are restricted to a fixed number of MEs and KEYs.

Key Feature 03

One action.
Instant perfection.

KAIROS makes complex, high-precision visuals a reality with effortless ease. One seamless action brings stunning imagery to life, keeping audiences captivated from start to finish. No complex techniques required—just pure creative power at your fingertips. With macros, instant execution meets perfect consistency.

Customer Testimonial

Cottonwood Creek Church

Cut the complexity. Reduce errors and optimize your workflow.

For a volunteer to be able to go up and push a macro button and do 30 things seamlessly without them even trying is much easier to train on than going with 'I got to move this ME and I got to move this stick and I push this button and then that button...'. It not only makes it a simpler, quicker process but it takes a lot of the risk out of it. We don't worry about operation error as much.

Multi-scene control function

Multiple video sources can be controlled collectively using the fader. You can also perform transitions tailored to different effects for each video source. This enables efficient operation in large-scale events that use multiple LED walls or screens.

Supported from Ver. 2.0 or later.

Control multiple tasks with a single button.

KAIROS's macro function allows you to
execute multiple tasks with a single
button press by pre-recording
operations. This includes selecting
crosspoints for scenes, switching
sources, performing AUTO transitions in
the background, reassigning AUX
outputs, adjusting MultiView layouts, and
controlling playback of the RAM
Recorder and Clip Player. By combining
these actions, you can create macros
tailored to your workflow.

Key Feature 04

Simple control, spectacular
LED productions.

KAIROS turns a single laptop into the engine for immersive stage visuals. Shape every pixel, sync to the music, and pulse with the energy of the crowd — fueling every moment with seamless control and limitless creativity. True innovation should never be complicated.

Control the East Coast’s largest LED wall
with just a single laptop.

KAIROS let us design a system where you could show up with a laptop and have a single output and control one of the largest LED walls on the East Coast. The LED video wall as a surface is an ocean of pixels and KAIROS is the vehicle that helped us navigate through those uncharted waters we designed a system.

Customer Testimonial

GGGLUE

Like a great team supporting us from behind.

KAIROS gave us the ability to not give artists a list of "Here are the four things that you're able to do, you pick." Instead, we gave them "What do you want? What's your goal?" KAIROS was the closest thing we found to hardware that let us do what we were used to in these incredibly open solutions, but as a supported hardware device with a fantastic team behind it to support it.

Quick response and support make the difference.

That was one thing that really sold us on the partnership with Panasonic - that not only are they going to help us with our engineering, and where we're going with the video over IP protocol - but they're there for you to make sure that you're up and running and that the show can still go on.
