A few highlights from what I've been building.

🎮

Unreal Engine — ATEM Control

A playable Unreal Engine level that controls real Blackmagic ATEM video switchers over WebSocket — walk up to a 3D model of a switcher, shoot the buttons, and switch live cameras.

Unreal Engine C++ WebSocket ATEM Virtual Production

🎛️

Browser-Based ATEM Control

A real-time web interface for controlling Blackmagic ATEM video switchers from any browser — full switching, transitions, keying, macros, and aux routing without desktop software.

Django WebSocket Python PyATEMMax Alpine.js

🎚️

X32 Web Control

A browser-based remote control for Behringer X32 audio mixers — real-time faders, metering, and mute control over WebSocket using a custom OSC implementation. Includes a bulk mute tool for managing audio across 100+ mixers simultaneously.

Django WebSocket Python OSC Alpine.js

🔬

PyATEMMax Protocol Extensions

Reverse-engineered Blackmagic ATEM protocol commands using Wireshark and added missing functionality to the PyATEMMax open-source library — chroma keying, DVE controls, flying keys, and more.
