C9 unleashes Live+ wizardry in Australia
Dejero By David Fox
Channel Nine Australia has deployed multiple Dejero Live+ Transmitters for its national and international news bureaux. Supplied by Dejero’s Australian distributor, Digistor, the Dejero
equipment, which has just received a major upgrade to Version 2.9, is becoming a valuable component in Channel Nine's live newsgathering capabilities. “Dejero's Live+ transmitters enable us to bring ‘you are there’ immediacy to breaking news for which microwave or satellite might not be practical,”
said the channel’s chief technology officer, Mathew Yelavich.
“And now, with the remote
control and enhanced audio features in Version 2.9, Dejero has set the bar even higher for broadcast quality in a cellular bonding transmission solution,” Yelavich added. 11.C21
Capturing 3D scene data
Scene By Adrian Pennington
Imagine a visual experience that goes beyond either video, CGI or stereoscopic image capture to create a truly three dimensional worldview composed of multiple viewpoints. That’s the aim of Scene, an

Air tripod system launched
Miller Camera Support By David Fox
The new Air tripod is Miller’s first system aimed at both photographers and videographers, providing a durable fluid head and tripod system that supports both stills and videos. It is designed to suit both the latest DSLR cameras and digital camcorders, and is claimed to offer the same sort of performance as Miller’s award-winning Compass, Arrow and Skyline ranges, including ‘soft take-offs, super-stable pan & tilt moves and smooth fluid stops’. Features include a user-friendly design; genuine fluid head technology; a wide payload range up to 5kg; selectable
counterbalance; bubble-levelling and a strong, lightweight alloy body supported by the versatile Solo Rapid-Lock tripod. 11.D30
Up in the air: The new Miller Air System with bag
EC-funded project running until October 2014 whose latest research is on show at the Future Zone. It wants to find ways of capturing and fusing scene data from multiple cameras and other kinds of sensors, so that structural, depth and surface appearance can be contained in a single representation. Along the way it is
addressing the extraction of
scene information, construction and manipulation of images, through to its optimisation for network delivery and rendering on different platforms and at different quality levels. On display at IBC today are
new tools that support the envisioned Scene Representation Architecture including an experimental 3D scene data capture rig, prototypes of analysis modules and a prototype of a camera incorporating an ARRI Alexa and a newly developed integrated time-of-flight sensor. Partners in the project are
Barcelona Media, ARRI, Brainstorm, Technicolor, 3Dlized, Fraunhofer, iMinds, IVCI (Univ. des Saarlandes) and University of Surrey. 8.G41
