Orad By Carolyn Giardina
Orad is showing a new portable version of its HDVG+ realtime graphics rendering platform, which was created with an eye toward on-location production and OB vans.
The new HDVG 2GO is a native 64-bit system offering processing and rendering capabilities in a 2U mobile chassis. It weighs less than 5kg. HDVG 2GO supports 1080p, 1080i, 720p as well as SD formats and can provide up to four video outputs. According to Orad, the system is capable of
introducing four live video feeds as well as video clips into the graphic scene with a minimal constant two frames delay. Additionally, HDVG 2GO is equipped with an embedded downstream keyer.
The new system can be used with Engine Framework, Orad’s software development environment. Users can create customisable controls to manipulate interactive scenes, enhance the use of big database sources, and operate events such as elections and sport. It can also be controlled by Orad’s Maestro and 3DPlay graphic control applications. 7.B27
Fujinon By David Fox
The XA55x9.5BESM HD telephoto box lens is “the first in its class to include an optical image stabiliser. This will allow for rock steady images to be produced even when the camera is moving due to wind or an unsteady base, this feature has only been found in longer, more expensive lenses until now,” said Stefan Czich, general manager, Broadcast & CCTV Products Division, Pyser-SGI – Fujinon distributors for the UK and Ireland.
The built-in cradle may rock, but the image won’t: Fujinon’s new
XA55x9.5B ESM HD lens
The 2/3-inch format 55x zoom is fitted with an integral camera / lens support, a cost saving com-pared to buying a separate cradle. “This integral cradle also reduces camera- rigging times. With quick rigging and competitive pricing this lens is aimed at areas such as
religious broadcasts, con-certs, party conferences and sports events,” he added.
The lens has a 16-bit encoder to output precise zoom, focus and other lens data, and can be used with virtual systems that combine CG images with live pictures. 11.C20
New broadcast headsets are unveiled
Sennheiser By Paul Watson
German audio specialist Sennheiser has re-engineered its most successful broadcast
headset series, the HMD/HME 26, and is presenting Mark II versions today.
The new 26-II Series comprises various headset models with dynamic (HMD) and pre-polarised condenser (HME) microphones, as well as
a model with Sennheiser’s NoiseGard active noise cancellation, designed for working in extremely noisy environments. The HD 26 PRO monitoring headphones complete the range. Much of the improvements
centre on Sennheiser’s new cable design that is said to efficiently suppresses structure- born noise. In addition, there is a new microphone boom design, which keeps the microphone securely in its position, as well as improved protection against
electromagnetic interference for the HME models. A new mic capsule suspension for the HMD headsets is being shown, and the manufacturer says users will benefit from improved wearing comfort throughout. 8.D50
