The NAB Show is in full swing, and the SVG and SVG Europe editorial teams are chasing down the hottest stories from all over the Las Vegas Convention Center. To make the flood of announcements easily digestible for our readers, SVG is sending you a daily roundup in SportsTechBuzz at NAB 2024, with all the top stories gathered in one easy-to-read blog.

Today's edition features Ai-Media EEG, Appear, Arri, ASTRODESIGN, Audinate, Bridge Technologies, Brightcove, Calrec Audio, Dreamwall, Globecast, Grabyo, Ikegami, LucidLink, Magnifi, Maxon, Mobilelinks, Moments Lab, NativeWaves, Nemal Electronics, PSSI Global Services, Riedel Communications, Seagate, SES, Synamedia, Telemetrics, Telos Alliance, Verizon Business, Vizrt, and Zero Density.

CENTRAL HALL Ikegami (Booth C3819) is celebrating its 60th anniversary and introducing the brand-new HDK-X500 portable camera system, which is designed for 1080p needs and can also do 1080i at 120 fps. It's the first Ikegami HD camera to have a global shutter sensor (the company's 4K lineup has that capability). According to Ikegami Director, Sales and Marketing, Terry Zastrow, it can be upconverted to HD with the help of the PSX100.. Two new monitors have also been released: the 24-in. Ikegami HLM-2460WA video monitor has an IPS LCD panel with 1,800:1 contrast ratio and 400-nits peak brightness; the HLM-1860WR features an 18.5-in. IPS LCD panel, larger than its HLM-1760WR predecessor but within the same 19-in.-wide 7RU chassis, and has a 1,000:1 contrast ratio and, with its 500 nits peak brightness, reproduces clear images even in outdoor environments. There is an HDR option with some scaling, says Alan Keil, VP/director, engineering, Ikegami. Part of the 60 series, they have the same engine board and functions. Also on display, a slim-line OCP-500 operational control panel allows five control panels to fit into the same space as four of the previous versions and offers improved ergonomic feel and support for RS-422 and Ethernet.

Telos Alliance Infinity VIP (Virtual Intercom Platform) software and app for iOS and Android devices

Telos Alliance (Booth C1808) is giving attendees sneak peeks at what VP, Business Development, Martin Dyster says are new concepts being applied to its Infinity VIP (Virtual Intercom Platform) software and app for iOS and Android devices. For example, he notes, we are finding that more and more customers are interested in using our virtualized intercom for contribution. So, rather than looking just like an intercom panel, maybe looking something a little bit more like an announcer panel or a commentary panel, the interface is more familiar to the contributor. We're able to deploy intercom anywhere you happen to be, without having the overhead of a matrix-based system and having to ship hardware around the world. I can put an intercom panel on a computer in front of anybody in seconds. There is, he emphasizes, both an operational and a business case to be made for this approach to intercom deployment.

ASTRODESIGN (Booth C9325) is showcasing the TR-5004 SRT transmission monitor, equipped with AVC/HEVC hardware codecs to facilitate stable transmission. It supports playback, return, tally, intercom, and camera-control signals for communication, allowing it to be used with existing system cameras. Among the highlights are 3G/HD-SDI signal encode/decode and support of H.264, MPEG-4 AVC, H.265, and MPEG-H HEVC codecs. It also provides transmission support for send back, tally, intercom, and camera-control-signal communication and features a display switch between HD-SDI input signal and received IP-stream signal. It can also connect via USB/WLAN and Wi-Fi.

Telemetrics (Booth C4420) continues to improve its lineup - for example, enabling operators to see a graphical 3D representation of the studio environment on the panel (complete with real-time location of camera pedestals and track systems). The RCCP-2A control panel also now has power-status view, robotic status, and more. Also being showcased is a series of software improvements to reFrame Talent tracking software, which can be accessed from both the control panel and the reFrame Server. Among new features are AI improvements to add more flexibility to subject framing (asymmetric return), incorporating additional movements via Telemetrics Televator, TG-4/TG-5 track and OmniGlide rover capabilities (X, Y, Z priority), and auto retrigger framing when talent is slightly out of frame for prolonged periods.

Dreamwall (Booth C6028) is gearing up for a bumper year of activity, with the animation and creative production studio that provides virtual and augmented solutions gearing up to work on the impending European elections, Belgian elections, and Euro 2024. For the upcoming Euro 2024 soccer tournament, Dreamwall will once again be working with Belgian broadcaster RTBF, for which it created a virtual set with LED screen with a virtual-set extension and teleportation of studio guests for the broadcaster's Qatar 2022 World Cup coverage. Said Dreamwall Head of Sales, Media Solutions, Isabelle Denis, Our unique selling point is our integrated design and production studio, which means we can handle everything from the initial concept with resource for each step of the process; the designer at beginning can speak with the person responsible for the integration, which means they can maximise the quality and effectiveness of the project. [For Euro 2024,] we will innovate again and try to push beyond what we have previously done.
