Sony has opened its XYN Spatial Capture Solution to individual professional creators and small production teams, adding public pricing plans and online credit card payment in an update released in Japan and the United States. Until now, Sony aimed XYN at corporate customers.
Sony launched XYN in April as a virtual production tool for professional customers, and Sony published no pricing when XYN Spatial Scan v1.1.0 shipped in July, when access ran through corporate accounts. XYN now offers Free, Creation 500, Creation 2000, and Creation 2000 + Renderer plans, plus a Custom tier. In Japan, Creation 500 costs ¥3,300 a month for 500 Tokens, Creation 2000 costs ¥11,108 for 2,000 Tokens, and the Renderer bundle costs ¥34,494, including tax. Sony's English pricing page lists the same plans at US$20, US$67.32, and US$209.05 a month before tax, and both pages say plans are sold in Japan, the United States, and Canada.
The Free plan grants no Tokens but allows generation with purchased ones, and every plan includes 15 GB of storage. A 500 Token month covers about three Basic or two Enhanced generations.
The same update adds object assets. XYN's Venus and Venus H algorithms generate gaussian splatting backgrounds for LED walls, exported as PLY, and Sony says a strengthened Venus algorithm now handles individual real world objects, reproducing material qualities such as transparency and gloss at quality levels ranging from PC and smartphone viewing to large LED walls.
Sony's pricing page lists four quality presets, with estimates based on 110 input images. Basic uses about 150 Tokens and 15 minutes for a 32 inch display, and Enhanced uses about 200 Tokens and 30 minutes for a 65 inch display. Advanced and Extreme target displays of 300 inches and up, at about 1,700 and 2,000 Tokens and roughly one and three hours.
Capture gains an assisted mode for objects that sizes its navigation to the subject and guides a full 360 degree pass. Sony's English documentation places the mode in XYN Spatial Scan Navi, the smartphone app that pairs with a Sony Alpha camera, where it shows a simple mesh and capture status while shooting. Sony's English capture and generation guides for objects went up in August, ahead of the Japanese release.
The XYN Spatial Renderer Plugin adds editing tools and flicker suppression, and Sony lists integration with the Aximmetry virtual production platform. A direct XYN path into Disguise was announced in April.
The update and the new plans are available now in Japan and the United States.
