AJA Video Systems' Nick Rashby
AJA Video Systems (Stand 7.C19) is highlighting new products and solutions: notably, KONA X and Desktop Software v17, HDR Image Analyzer 12G v3.0 Software, and add-ons to 12G-SDI openGear solutions. Compatible with new AJA Desktop Software v17 and with version 17 of the company's world-class software-development kit (SDK), the KONA X four-lane PCIe 3.0 card offers ultra-low-latency video capture and playback for applications spanning M&E, live production, OEM development, and more. A 12G update to the popular HDR Image Analyzer HDR monitoring and analysis solution provides several new workflow capabilities to keep pace with evolving demands across live, on-set, QC, and postproduction environments. And AJA's OG-12G-AM and OG-12G-AMA enable 16-channels (eight two-channel pairs) of AES/EBU and analog audio embedding/disembedding, respectively, and support 12G-SDI input and output up to 4K UHD. Overall, the company is working hard at keeping a consistent dialogue with their clients to ensure high-quality solutions that can solve the industry's current challenges. We're continuing to talk to people and understand where our customers want to be in a year from now, said Nick Rashby, president, AJA Video Systems. That certainly means the adoption of more IP video throughout the industry at every level, so you'll see more products from us in the future that help support [IP].
Audiotonix has announced that two of the companies under its umbrella, sister businesses Calrec (Stand 8.D60) and SSL (Stand 8.B81), are demonstrating the result of a joint development of a cloud-based processing block on the AWS stand (5.C90). Capitalising on their joint broadcast experience and DSP knowledge, both brands have spent time working with multiple broadcast clients across several PoC projects in the field to push the boundaries of cloud production. The resulting cloud-based processing engine will provide the backbone for future remote solutions for both manufacturers, with each brand developing its own commercial solutions with signature DSP sound and control. Said SSL director, product management, Tom Knowles, Cloud production is going to give sports broadcasters additional ways to manage remote and distributed productions, allowing more events to be broadcast than they could traditionally do with onsite production.
Black Box (Stand 10.F40) offers the Emerald DESKVUE receiver to give control-room users looking to create a personalized workspace all the power they need. Users tailor their workspace by connecting a single keyboard, mouse, USB 3/2 devices, audio, and up to four 4K/5K monitors to simultaneously monitor and interact with up to 16 preferred systems, whether physical, virtual, or cloud-based. It also supports 4K or 5K video on one to four screens, with instant mouse switching between sources, eliminating hotkey errors. Also on exhibit, the Black Box Emerald AV Wall facilitates display of a single source from an Emerald system on a video wall for viewing by a group. It directly supports a 2 2 video wall while allowing expansion in the number of supported monitors via additional units.
Calrec (Stand 8.D60) has launched ImPulse1, a DSP processing engine to go with its Argo consoles. Designed for smaller, single-mixer applications, ImPulse1 is offered with a DSP licence of 128 input channels without compromising its ST 2110 capability. The company expects it to be the mainstay of its new, smaller sports events and gameshow client productions.
Caton Technology (Stand 1.F36) is highlighting its global IP connectivity solutions, with the Caton Media XStream service taking centre stage. Media XStrea can carry content at high quality from any location, via the Caton Cloud. AI-based technology is used to reroute signals across multiple paths, resulting in a reliability rating that consistently exceeds 99.9999%, Caton said. At IBC 2023, the company's demonstrations focus on three key applications: broadcast networks, live sports broadcasting, and delivery of live events to cinemas around the world.
Exhibiting at IBC for the first time since 2019, Chyron (Stand 7.A45) is highlighting live-production workflows for sports and news, featuring cloud-native all-in-one production tool Chyron LIVE. Shown in 1.5 beta version, the cloud-native, all-in-one live-production application is hosted on AWS, emphasizing security and improved user experience. Key elements of Chyron's news portfolio are also being showcased in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS). New product offerings include PRIME 4.9 with enhanced performance, PAINT 9.6 featuring multi-angle telestration, and the debut of Chyron WEATHER 2.0, promising versatile weather-data presentation and integration with its CAMIO newsroom system. According to Chyron, CAMIO 5.4 underlines the firm's commitment to cloud production, offering a mixer-free workflow solution that drives various graphical elements, video walls, and camera cues.
