At the 2024 NAB Show, Interra Systems will showcase its cutting-edge product innovations designed to deliver end-to-end quality assurance for the dynamic media landscape. Highlights will include the latest upgrades to the company's industry-leading BATON solution - with a brand-new engine to enhance performance - its award-winning ORION monitoring suite, and its powerful VEGA media analyzer solution. Together, these solutions provide media professionals with everything they need to streamline quality excellence across every stage of the content life cycle - from preparation to delivery - in both IP and OTT workflows.

Today's media industry demands solutions that are agile and easy to deploy and use. At Interra Systems, we've listened to our customers' needs and responded accordingly by enhancing our BATON, ORION, and VEGA platforms with features that make quality assurance easier, more efficient, and more accurate.

In addition, the solution boasts enhanced video quality checks like detection of unwanted frames, field order, video dropout, ghosting, black bars, video signal and black levels, as well as audio quality checks like Nielsen Watermarking and audio loudness, and more.
