Blue Screen
Enabling an object to disappear when passing behind another adds realism to a
virtual scene. maxReality’s Blue Screen effect enables virtual objects to disappear
when passing behind real-world objects.
The Blue Screen effect is global. When enabled, it affects all objects in a scene
assigned a corresponding color.
To enable Blue Screening:
 Select the “Blue Screen Enabled” checkbox.

Assign a color not used in your scene to a material in the 3ds Max materials
editor.
Tip: Naming this color “Blue Screen Material”, or something similar, makes it easier to identify.
 Assign this material to the scene objects you want blue-screened.
Geometries passing into, out of or behind blue-screened objects will appear to vanish
from the real world.
As an example, let’s assume I wanted to create a scene with a virtual ball orbiting
around a real soda can sitting on my desktop.
Note: This effect is demonstrated in the “Blue Screen Tutorial” files installed with the maxReality
software.
