A Portugal-based broadcast technology company focused on real-time broadcast graphics and media workflow products is revving up for the 2026 NAB Show in Las Vegas by bringing to market a real-time on-air graphics endering engine running natively on macOS.
This allows Mac-based production environments to benefit from wTVision‘s product offering.
Developed as a native macOS implementation leveraging Apple Metal, wTVision’s R³ Engine “macOS edition” is designed to operate alongside Macnica’s MEP100 SmartNIC 2110 I/O, enabling SMPTE ST 2110 connectivity within software-driven environments.
“Our goal is to modernize the broadcast graphics stack,” said Flávio Maurício, CTO at wTVision. “By developing a Metal-based engine running natively on macOS, we deliver predictable real-time performance and low-latency rendering, deeply integrated with the Apple ecosystem. This milestone brings broadcast graphics closer to the environment preferred by creative teams, while supporting the evolving demands of IP-based and distributed media workflows.”
Sebastien Dignard, CEO of Macnica Americas and EMEA, added, “The future of live production is being built on open standards and software-defined infrastructure. By combining Metal-accelerated graphics on macOS, the wTVision real-time R³ Engine, and Macnica’s MEP100 SmartNIC for deterministic IP media transport, we are enabling a new class of scalable, high-performance production workflows aligned with how modern content teams operate.”
