Cropoint Gra Valley and anticipate the future of live production environments 4K and IP

11/12/2014

Crosspoint Grass Valley and anticipate the future of live production environments 4K and IP In a roadshow, authentic coming-of Crosspoint as the official distributor and integrator of Grass Valley (after merging with Miranda in Belden), have been released in Barcelona and Madrid the latest solutions of the brand.

After its presentation in Barcelona, the roadshow The future of live television production organized by Crosspoint and Grass Valley concluded yesterday in Madrid. During these days the professionals were able to learn about issues such as the emergence of 4K or IP environments that will be decisive for the future of broadcast.

In addition, this roadshow, authentic coming-of Crosspoint as the official distributor and integrator of Grass Valley (after merging with Miranda in Belden), has served to publicize the latest solutions of the brand. Among them include the revolutionary production director GV system that combines in a single server machine, mixer, effects, graphics and multi.

K2 Summit 3G servers are also exhibited in its production version of the popular K2 Summit here integrated with the remote for K2 Dyno repetitions (used in broadcasting as demanding as Moto GP).

The professionals who attended this roadshow could also check the possibilities GV Stratus, software for workflow management and Grass Valley mean that integrates with your servers and repetition.

In line with Miranda, it is worth noting the new multiscreen the Kaleido series, CPR2 (a flexible, powerful and compact solution in three 3RU) and CP6464 matrix that fills a gap that existed in compact matrix as it is a matrix of 64 64 in 3RU.

Manuel Paredes, Regional Manager Iberia, reviewed in this roadshow to major trends for live production.

In this line, Paredes stressed the need to differentiate the production of live events because "broadcasters need to differentiate the competition in terms of graphics or way of telling stories."

Ultra high definition

Paredes stopped in his presentation at the height of the Ultra High Definition and recalled a study of the EBU which ensures that by 2017, 3% of American households and 3% of those in Western Europe, will have UHDTV in 2018.

But how are already producing live content in 4K?

Therefore, he proposes Grass Valley more resolution based on the equipment and technology they already have in capturing, mixing, servers and repetition "he said.

Grass Valley offers three sensors 2K converting the signal directly into the next generation CMOS sensor.

IP World

The IP from the point of view of transport is another aspect that will mark a future, increasingly present, development of arrays, fiber interfaces, multiscreen, MONITORING control ....

Why IP? Paredes believes that "it is a matter of bandwidth. It also allows the use of agnostics video formats, with scalable solutions that reduce both wiring needs ... ".

Although in the future market will be able to carry 12 wires gigas, now two standards that make the most of the current bandwidth are proposed: SMPTE 2022 or Audio-Video Bridging (AVB IEEE 802.1). While the former is effective in long distance, the second is profiled to sandboxes. In this regard, Paredes said "Grass Valley is committed to support any protocol."

At IBC we could see the new IP NV8500 card that reduces cabling (3 vs 8 Ethernet coaxial cable), over long distances in SDI and remote possibility of high speed production.

However, these new solutions over IP would be useless if not taken into account the configuration, control and monitoring applications.

Paredes is in favor of using the best existing solutions now baseband (copper) in comnutaciones, live events studies ... and leave the rest of switching for IP world where gains in flexibility and profitability. Grass Valley SDN Controller lets you control and third party owned equipment, with consequent improvement in resource management exploiting the potential of each technology.

An alternative robotics This roadshow has shown the possibilities offered by Arcam robotic systems developed by Areplus.

From long experience in industrial robotics, this French company now offers the audiovisual market a number of interesting solutions for virtual studios, augmented reality, stop-motion recording and robot uptake in television and film.

Among his proposals for film, television and stop motion, in this day has exhibited the Arcam Tv system. This proposal consists of four parts. On the one hand the automated articulated arm itself and other control software, human-machine interface and a range of accessories according to who is going to spend.

The (Arcaptur) software provides recording and editing all kinds of movements of up to eight robotic arms. It also takes into account other elements in the film set that would limit the movements of the robot or the peculiarities that a virtual studio with real-time production might need. The movements can be imported and exported from 3D programs such as Maya, 3DS Max or Cinema 4D.

Arcam TV software allows you to record up to 300 movements per robot and program, being able to program all of them as a loop. These movements can range from one second to ten minutes.

As for the man-machine interface, the system has two joysticks, three positions three coders eight radio buttons and can be used for both programming movements to a manual system control.
