OG-COLORBOX - Overview

The AJA OG-ColorBox is a high performance color management openGear card specifically designed to meet the color conversion and color correction needs of broadcast, live events, and on-set applications. Supporting HDR, SDR, and Wide Color Gamut (WCG) signals, it utilizes 12G-SDI for single wire 4K/UltraHD up to 4:2:2 10-bit 60p or 4:4:4 12-bit 30p, with a unique color processing pipeline, and down-conversion. The OG-ColorBox's ultra-low latency, less than ½ of a video line, makes it ideal for color managed workflows for live productions.

Built around a 33-point 3D LUT processor with tetrahedral interpolation, the AJA Color Pipeline provides additional 4x 1D LUTs and 2x 3x3 matrices that are each individually configurable or can be converted to Proc Amps or RGB Color Correctors. All of the color processing options can be easily managed via the web user interface, which can be accessed directly from a wired Ethernet connection.

OG-ColorBox also includes processing pipelines from NBCU LUTs and ACES. Additionally, OG-ColorBox offers licensable upgrade options for advanced color managed workflows, including the Colorfront Engine, BBC HLG LUTs, and ORION-CONVERT. ORION-CONVERT's unique real time floating point math approach to color transformations produces higher precision results to get "access to the colors between the colors." This enables pixel perfect color transforms and round-tripping where maintaining color fidelity is paramount.

The ACES Pipeline includes support for ACES Metadata File (AMF). Internal AMF processing is built on the OpenColorIO (OCIO) from the Academy Software Foundation and supports configurable input and output transforms.

OG-ColorBox can overlay information onto the image, including helpful user definable text fields, user loaded images such as graphic elements and frame lines, and more.

OG-ColorBox also offers a sophisticated 4K test pattern generator and frame store, bringing useful tools to your workflow, including capturing up to a 4K image as a 16-bit .tiff file for the highest quality reference stills. These captures can be saved locally on OG-ColorBox or onto third party connected computers, which can simultaneously be running applications like Pomfort's Livegrade Pro/Studio, Assimilate Live Looks, and QTAKE Video Assist software.

HDMI Cable Retention
HDMI cables do not natively have a retention mechanism. This is why OG-ColorBox comes with a unique HDMI cable bracket that can be mounted to the rear card and offers a means to secure the HDMI cable. This helps to ensure connected cables remain installed, even after transportation.

High Density Delivered
OG-ColorBox comes with a range of Pipelines to choose from. Select any particular Pipeline for your production needs. Some Pipelines are designed specifically for live broadcast, live event, or on-set needs. Others, like the AJA Color Pipeline, offer greater flexibility for more control over each step of a transform for any application. Pipelines like Colorfront, ORION-CONVERT, or BBC HLG LUTs will display a watermark over the image until a license is applied, offering you the ability to "try before you buy" the optional license. OG-ColorBox offers unique image processing capabilities with an unrivaled array of options for a device of its type with full 12-bit 4:4:4 up to 4K 30p and 10-bit 4:2:2 up to 4K 60p, plus down-conversion. A bypass node is integrated into each processing pipeline for both 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 outputs, allowing quick comparisons between the input and output signals.

There are six image processing Pipelines available:
- AJA Color
- Colorfront (requires License to remove watermark)
- ORION-CONVERT (requires License to remove watermark)
- BBC HLG LUTs (requires License to remove watermark)
- NBCU LUTs
- ACES
