R³ Space Engine Receives HDR Certification From Cromorama

wTVision is proud to announce that its R³ Space Engine and broadcast render engine have received HDR Certification from color processing experts, Cromorama. This certification is a testament to R³ Space Engine’s capability in precise HDR and SDR transformations, underscoring wTVision’s commitment to delivering top-tier broadcast graphics technology.

The certification process was thorough, involving rigorous benchmarking and a step-by-step analysis performed by Cromorama’s technical team alongside wTVision engineers. Tests included advanced LUT (Lookup Table) conversion for both HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) and SDR (Standard Dynamic Range) formats, ensuring seamless adaptability across diverse broadcast standards. This certification is a key assurance for clients seeking optimal visual consistency and accurate color fidelity, particularly in workflows where HDR graphics must be converted for SDR outputs and vice versa.

In the testing process, Cromorama configured a Davinci Resolve editing station in conjunction with an AJA ColorBox and a LEADER LV 5600 picture analysis monitor, establishing a controlled environment to assess R³ Space Engine’s accuracy in applying complex LUT conversions, such as HLG to SDR using NBCU LUT3, and SDR to HLG conversions.  Cromorama's report confirmed that wTVision’s R³ Space Engine meets HDR standards, with identical results in SDR-to-HLG transformations and HLG-to-SDR, attesting to the precision and reliability of wTVision’s technology.

With this certification, wTVision’s R³ Space Engine reinforces its role and focus in providing broadcast professionals with the tools necessary to maintain superior visual quality across both HDR and SDR formats. This achievement underscores wTVision’s ongoing commitment to technological excellence and continuous improvement.
