This course will consider the transmission and distribution of video signals. It will explore the transition from SDI to IP and next-generation video production and distribution systems. We have picked out the most popular booths that exhibit “migration from SDI,” “conversion,” and “distribution,” which are essential for AV over IP.
Applications are now being accepted!
“Inter BEE 2024 Venue Tour” for Students
01 Panasonic Connect (#4206)
Professional live video production and distribution system “KAIROS”
KAIROS is increasingly being used for remote production and resource sharing for sharing materials. Reflecting this trend, this year’s Panasonic booth will introduce resource sharing with KAIROS at its core. In addition, the Makuhari Messe booth studio will be connected to the Aomi Studio, and a demonstration will be held of remote cameras and lighting in the Aomi Studio being controlled and directed from the KAIROS in Makuhari Messe.
02 FOR-A (#5117)
Integrated Live Production System “FOR-A IMPULSE”
We will be showcasing a software-based, function-integrated live production system that will debut at Inter BEE. FOR-A is involved in the development of a wide range of standalone and dedicated products for video production environments, but IMPULSE turns the functions of these products into software, allowing them to run on a common platform. Processors, video switchers, multi-viewers, video servers, etc. can be replaced with the IMPULSE platform. It’s a little strange to see how hardware from the video industry can be realized with software. We hope you’ll come and see it for yourself.
03 Roland (#5208)
compact video switcher “V-80HD”
The main exhibits will be the “V-80HD” and “Graphics Presenter.” Presentations introducing new products will be held during the event, with the schedule to be announced soon. There will also be an advance exhibit of the HD video switcher “V-8HD” Ver.3.0, which is scheduled for release in late November, as well as exhibits of the “VR-120HD,” “VR-6HD,” and “SR-20HD,” which received major updates in September and October.
04 Netgear Japan (#5301)
ProAV Switch “M4350 Series”
They will be exhibiting the M4350 series switches, which are the highest level of their AV line. You will be able to experience not only the simple and easy-to-understand AV UI, but also the software “ENGAGE” that allows for centralized management of multiple ProAV switches across multiple devices. During the exhibition period, they will be hosting pavilion exhibits and seminars by their partners, with seven companies and organizations scheduled to give talks each day.
05 ADTECHNO (#5306)
AV over IP product “Dante AV Ultra Encoder/Decoder”
Among “Video Over IP,” “Dante AV” is gradually gaining attention as more manufacturers support it. The “Dante AV Ultra Encoder & Decoder” series, which supports the currently popular Dante AV, will be exhibited. This encoder/decoder is capable of high-quality 4K60P distribution via 1GbE and features low latency. It allows synchronization within a microsecond.
06 Japan Material (#5404)
4K remote production and web distribution encoder “Matrox Monarch EDGE”
The live demo of the 4K IP-IP video gateway “Matrox Vion” is noteworthy. Vion is a 4K IP-to-IP video gateway ideal for live production. It supports multi-channel encoding, decoding, and transcoding, and cross-converts IP video formats such as H.264/HEVC, ST 2110-22, IPMX, JPEG-XS, and NDI with low latency. It also supports a wide range of formats such as ST 2110-22, SRT, RTSP, RTP, and MPEG-2 TS, and enables flexible routing workflows such as converting and forwarding NDI to SRT. It can also be used for next-generation workflows via cloud connection.
07 Magewell (#8002)
Encoder/Decoder “Modator 2U”
The Modator 2U decoder and encoder is a customizable solution for conversion. The chassis is designed to fit standard rack layouts and has slots for up to 10 modules. Status can be monitored via the built-in 4.8-inch LED touchscreen or browser-based web interface. Dual power supplies and optimized heat dissipation enable 24/7 operation. It is said to achieve low-latency encoding and decoding performance without any problems even during 24/7 operation.
