Ikegami Accelerates Motorsport Broadcast Innovation with...

In a move set to redefine motorsports coverage across the Asia Pacific region, Ikegami Electronics announces that Two Wheels Motor Racing Sdn Bhd (TWMR), a leading motorsports event production specialist, has invested in Ikegami broadcast camera systems, strengthening its ability to deliver high-impact next-generation live race production.

Two Wheels Motor Racing Sdn Bhd is well established in Asias motorsports scene, through its subsidiary company (TWTV Production Sdn Bhd). They provide end-to-end production for high-speed racing events including regional championship circuit races, endurance challenges, and also compact street circuit races. The company has also played a key role in hosting and supporting internationally recognized events such as the Super GT and the FIM Asia Road Racing Championship, demonstrating its capability to meet global broadcast standards.

The deployment includes Ikegami UHK-X600 cameras enabling 4 high frame rate (HFR) slow-motion capture, and HDK-X500 models trusted for delivering stable high-quality live production for up to 16 race track viewpoints. Together these support HDR imaging and advanced HFR workflows, delivering the sharper contrast, richer colors and ultra-smooth replay sequences essential for modern motorsports broadcasting.

A key factor in this decision was Ikegamis strong local support presence, ensuring responsive technical assistance and seamless integration, combined with the brands reputation for exceptional image quality and robust, reliable camera systems critical in the fast-paced and demanding environment of motorsports production.

The HDK-X500 units deliver consistent broadcast-grade coverage across multiple camera positions, augmented by the UHK-X600 cameras which allow the production team to capture every fraction of a second in stunning slow motion, from tire deformation during rapid braking to razor-close overtakes.

Motorsports production demands absolute reliability and precision, especially in high-speed environments where there are no second takes, comments Ron Hogg, Promotion Director, Two Wheels Motor Racing Sdn Bhd. Ikegamis cameras deliver outstanding image quality, particularly in HDR and high frame rate replay, while their strong local support gives us confidence in every deployment. This investment allows us to raise the bar for live race coverage and deliver a more immersive experience to our audience.

Ikegami cameras are engineered for the intensity of live sports, especially motorsports where conditions are unpredictable and fast-moving. With this investment, Two Wheels Motor Racing Sdn Bhd is poised to deliver a new level of visual storytelling where speed meets clarity and every frame carries the thrill of the race.
