IP-based operation, 4K support &intuitive UI operation showcased on ambitious NAB technology showcase

Cambridge, UK, 16 February 2016 On its NAB booth (#N4519), UK-based media asset management and technology specialist, IPV, will demonstrate the latest advances in its Curator Media Asset Management (MAM) system. IPV will showcase how Curator responds to industry trends such as the drive towards IP-based operations and the emergence of Ultra High Definition (UHD) broadcasts. In particular, IPV will showcase developments in Curator's User Interface (UI) that are designed to enhance the system's simplicity of operation and its ability to configure the UI to the specific requirements of an individual user organization.

Curator is the product of an eight-year development initiative at IPV: from day one it has been configured as a software-only product running on standard IT servers. IP-based operation has been a cornerstone of its proposition throughout its development, so at NAB, IPV will demonstrate how this advanced MAM system is strategically positioned to help broadcasters and facilities that are looking to migrate to IP-based operations.

4K support will be another focus for IPV at NAB. Curator's codecs are format agnostic, so 4K support is straightforward for this system. At NAB, IPV will demonstrate the sophistication of its 4K proposition, as well as revealing its strategic UHD roadmap to 4K, 8K and beyond.

Intuitive user interfaces are a major new feature of the latest iteration of Curator. At NAB, IPV will demonstrate the ease with which a user can develop the exact screen-based UI that they need. By configuring the UI to their specific operational requirements, IPV believes that Curator can create significant efficiencies in customer facilities, and also in their clients' operations.

During the last 12 months we have channelled significant resources into the development of Curator and at NAB visitors will start to see the results of this initiative, commented David Cole, CEO of IPV. 2016 will prove to be a strategic milestone year for our company and this will be evident to visitors to our booth at NAB.
