NewBlue Fusion M Live Graphics Appliance

Fusion M is NewBlue's compact live 2D/3D graphics and titling appliance: hardware and software shipped together, powered by NewBlue Captivate, so it goes from unboxed to on air without building a graphics PC. It outputs two channels of NDI, a single HDMI channel, a virtual webcam for conferencing platforms, and up to two channels of key and fill SDI when paired with an AJA or Blackmagic Design Thunderbolt device. Over 500 prebuilt templates cover sports, news, corporate, government, and cinema looks.

Its data side is unusually broad for a box this size. General controllers read a custom or system clock, Excel and Google Sheets in the cloud, local XLSX and CSV files, RSS feeds, and EasyWorship or ProPresenter. Sports controllers cover a built-in scoreboard interface plus Scorebird, Daktronics and DataLink, StatCrew, and Sportzcast. Chat controllers put Zoom and Teams chat, Zoom Q&A, Facebook live comments, X posts, and YouTube live chat directly on screen, along with Zoom and Teams participant audio and video state. Design is handled by the included NewBlue Title Designer with 3D animated graphics, effects and transitions, and Adobe Photoshop import; playout runs in real time with per-layer live updates, spreadsheet and crawl autoplay, and hotkey control.
