25/08/2014

(25/08/2014) Since last IBC, Ross Video has expanded dramatically with 4 corporate acquisitions in the areas of routing, news and prompting software, augmented reality and mobile production and a wide array of new production focused products and services as well as the addition of almost 100 new employees. This IBC, Ross is celebrating its 40th anniversary, sporting a new look with a modernized corporate logo and the updated tagline: Production Technology Experts .

openTruck brings innovation to mobile production by providing a standardized yet customizable way to design a new generation of cost-effective remote-production vehicles that deliver the highest quality video and audio content from sports and other live events. A mobile production vehicle, built to the openTruck specifications will be front and center on the Ross stand at IBC.

Acuity Breakthrough High End Production Switching

Introduced at NAB 2014 and now fully released and shipping, the Acuity production switcher is the latest large production switcher platform. It delivers fast, efficient and error-free production for all formats including UHD (4K) and is ergonomically perfect and stunningly beautiful. The culmination of 40-years' production switcher design experience, Acuity combines seemingly limitless production power with aesthetic beauty and unprecedented connectivity. No matter what your vision is for the future of your production facility, Acuity will help you lead the way.

Carbonite The World's Most Popular Mid-Sized Production Switcher

The award-winning Carbonite production switcher now has more choice and flexibility than ever before with 3G and Advanced UHD (4K) production shipping on new systems and also available to all Carbonite customers through free software upgrades. These features enable Carbonite to be switched to 3G (1080P 50 or 60 (59.94)) and open the door to the very latest production format: UHDTV (4K) a capability used by Globosat, Brazil in the recent FIFA World Cup.

Another unexpected free software upgrade to Carbonite is 2.5 ME operation, with two new 3 ME panels available to provide direct access to this additional horsepower the 3S and 3X bringing the total number of Carbonite control panel choices to nine.

Inception The Modern Newsroom Computer System

Inception is the new kid in town in newsroom editorial systems and has made a big impression since its introduction last IBC, winning major industry awards for the innovative approach it takes to creating multi-platform content. Inception enables your operation to truly embrace social media and the web - making them equal partners alongside your linear channel in your content creation efforts. Designed to handle the modern needs of News, Sports and Entertainment production, Inception is a must see at IBC this year.

Inception Social Social Media Management Made Easy

Inception Social is a social media management system that can either work standalone or can be plugged in to an existing newsroom computer system. In addition to news environments, Inception Social has found a place in live event social media management for entertainment productions and sports where it provides a tight link between audience feedback (tweets, polls and pictures) and live on-air production graphics.

XPression The New Standard in Real-Time Motion Graphics

XPression keeps getting more powerful and flexible with solutions that meet virtually every type of onscreen live graphics need from character generation to virtual sets and augmented reality. XPression has added Visual Scripting, making the creation of dynamic, data-driven graphics much faster and easier. Visual Scripting complements XPressions powerful scripting capability with an intuitive drag and drop operator user interface eliminating the need to write programming scripts in most cases.

A few more new solutions planned for the XPression family at IBC this year include:

XPression Tick-it and Tick-it Solo: Next-generation ticker systems with collaborative browser-based data entry and scheduling.

XPression Brand-it: Multi-channel automated branding workflow server for program lineups, snipes and more.

XPression Studio and BlueBox GO!: Powerful XPression solutions for Thunderbolt laptops.
