SKAARHOJ has a wide range of hardware products plus variants in its line-up. Each product is characterized by a unique form factor in terms of size and dimension as well as physical control points like buttons, knobs, fader handles and joysticks.
 
All products run one of SKAARHOJs signature platforms, UniSketch OS or Blue Pill/Reactor. Both platforms support the installation of additional applications - device cores - to facilitate communication with the many live production devices we support, such as a camera, a video router, a vision mixer etc. The common software platform and the device cores is what makes the full range of products universal. UniSketch OS and Blue Pill/Reactor work together to support anything from simple to advanced solutions.

About
Markets
Markets

SKAARHOJ controllers appeal both to system integrators and broadcast engineers with a high interest in the core flexibility of the products, while at the same time mass market end-users can enjoy SKAARHOJ controllers as off-the-shelf commodities that work out of the box. 

The latter is due to the growing set of default configurations that exist for every controller, so a customer with a specific and typical need for control of a given camera model can just select it on a list and load support into the product.
