EVS has announced the launch of Choreon, its new robotics controller for media production and part of its T-Motion solution. Making its debut at NAB 2026 (booth N1841), Choreon introduces a unified orchestration layer that aims to bring various robotic systems together under a single intelligent platform, supporting setups that range from compact, single-operator workflows to complex, large-scale environments with multiple robots and operators, as the company has claimed in a statement.

Where operators previously relied on separate interfaces for each device, the platform is designed to enable simultaneous control of multiple robotic systems within a single workflow. This tries to enable camera movements that are difficult to achieve with isolated systems, reduce operational complexity, lower the risk of human error, and improve both speed and overall production quality.

Additionally, the platform supports T-Motion’s robotics portfolio, including PTZ cameras, robotic heads, tracks, elevators, rovers, jibs, gyro systems, and the Cablecam for smooth on-air movements, as well as third-party devices for off-air positioning. These can be combined within a single environment. Choreon also enables collaborative operation, allowing multiple users to work within the same setup to meet the scale and demands of any production.

Choreon is expected to enable new forms of creative expression across a wide range of applications, from high-end broadcast and live sports to studio and entertainment productions. It also supports use in immersive environments such as AR, VR and XR, as well as live venues including parliaments, houses of worship, stadiums and esports events.

“With T-Motion and Choreon, we are proud to realize our vision of a fully integrated robotics solution within EVS, one that connects seamlessly with our broader live production ecosystem”, shares Serge Van Herck, CEO of EVS.

Built on a human-led orchestration model, Choreon keeps operators fully in charge of the creative process. AI-assisted features, such as automated framing, path planning, and dynamic motion profiling, intent to enhance precision and consistency while easing the operator’s workload in high-pressure live environments, all without compromising editorial intent.

Operational parameters, such as speed, acceleration, motion curves, and fine-tuning, are standardized across all connected devices.

Engineered specifically for live production, Choreon features a touchscreen, tactile control surface, and haptic feedback for fast, intuitive operation. Safety is central to the design, with multi-sensor protection, configurable safe zones, and hardware- and software-based stop mechanisms.

As a single integration point for all robotic devices, Choreon simplifies scalability, reduces integration effort, and provides a foundation for increasing automation.

“Choreon represents a significant step forward in how robotic systems are deployed and managed in live production”, affirms Benoit Dentan, VP T-Motion Robotics Solution at EVS. “We are moving beyond controlling individual devices to truly choreographing motion across an entire production. This makes it easier for teams to expand their use of robotics while preserving the human creative control that remains essential in live storytelling”.

“The launch of Choreon comes just months after our acquisitions of Telemetrics and XD Motion”, notes the CEO. “It highlights strong and rapid synergies between our teams, combining decades of media robotics expertise with deep live production knowledge. With T-Motion and Choreon, we are proud to realize our vision of a fully integrated robotics solution within EVS, one that connects seamlessly with our broader live production ecosystem”.
