coolux presents new Pandoras Box Version 5.5 and new Broadcast QUAD Server at PLASA 30 Sep 2013
coolux will present their new Pandoras Box Version 5.5 at this year's PLASA at the London ExCeL.
Some of the highlights of the version 5.5 include the following features:
INTERACTIVE CONTENT
Users can now access HTML pages and render them as so called Browser Assets in order to make them visible on graphic or video layers. It is also possible to make any layer react to mouse, touch and keyboard input. A new Pointer Layer is available for visualizing mouse & touch events.
WEB SERVER
The newly integrated Web Server adds the ability to host web pages on any Pandoras Box Master system. Furthermore it allows to remote control any Pandoras Box system via HTML pages. All PB Automation commands, known from the SDK, can now be executed directly via JavaScript.
PLAYLIST
Playlists make it really easy to play a number of media files in a row without the need of programming separate containers on the sequence. This can be a huge time saver for producing slide shows or generating video playlists on the fly.
WARPER WITH 3D MARKER CALIBRATION
In addition to third party 3D object import, it is now possible to attach so called markers to them. All one needs to do is define a minimum of 4 points on a 3D projection surface, after which one can easily position the corresponding 2D markers. Based on the physical lens settings, the software will automatically generate the 3D projector position and orientation.
WATCHFOLDER & MEDIA MONITORING
Use automatic media management to speed up your content workflow. Any project folder can be set up as a so called watch folder. Once new content is added to that folder, it will be automatically distributed across the system to be instantly available.
PLAYER UPDATES 4K & PARTICLES
Pandoras Box software packages will now support 2D particle systems. The new 4K Playback support for Player PRO software makes this product the most cost effective 4K playback solution on the market.
NEW FILE FORMAT IMPORT
The new Warper now supports .3ds as well .fbx files.
All image processing tools now support JPEG2000 import.
The new WIDGET DESIGNER VERSION 4.5, which will also be presented at this year's PLASA, reflects the new Pandoras Box feature additions in many ways.
Here are some of the Widget Designer's new feature highlights:
TUIO INPUT SUPPORT
Enhances compatibility with 3rd party devices software sensors etc.
MOUSE & TOUCH INJECTION
Camera tracking, AirScan and/or TUIO inputs can now be used to let them directly interact with any Pandoras Box display output.
GESTURE SUPPORT
Kinect, AirScan or other kinds of multi-touch applications can now involve gesture based actions like swiping etc. more easily.
REMOTE TRACKING FOR MULTIPLE AIRSCAN, CAMERA & KINECT INPUT
It is now possible to collect touch data from a large number of input sources, in order to make massive multi device tracking scenarios even more precise.
NEW PB MENU & PB REMOTE
The new menu consists of an FTP Server & Client for managing or uploading files.
PB Remote now features advanced system monitoring
and remote file management.
In addition to coolux's latest software developments, a powerful new Broadcast QUAD Server will also be presented in the UK for the first time.
