ROBOTIC PAN AND TILT HEAD TAKES DEBUT BOW BST Devices BY KEVIN EMMOTT
Exhibiting at IBC for the fi rst time, BST Devices is showing its camera robotics in Hall 7 alongside sister company nxtedition. Taking centre stage is its camACE pan and tilt head, with a “resolution and repeatability of 0.8 arcseconds with zero backlash for precise on-air moves”. It is designed with direct drive servos, and with only one moving part per axis and high damping. This makes for virtually silent operation
of movement for very quick and precise positioning. The system also supports payloads of up to 45kg, allowing for full studio cameras (complete with prompters) to be used.
Camera movement is controlled
The silentTrack fl oor or ceiling rail system offers complete freedom of movement
and high reliability for critical operations such as news studios. The camACE remote head can be paired with BST’s Altitude lifting
column and the silentTrack fl oor or ceiling rail system, enabling designers to utilise robotic cameras with complete freedom
from modular panels which provide intuitive access for programming and live operation. Safety is inherent in the control system, ensuring the protection of equipment, operators and the surrounding environment and meeting all widely recognised safety standards for studio robotics. 7.A02
WORKFLOW EVOLUTION IN PROGRESS Techex
BY ADRIAN PENNINGTON
Created to support software- defi ned hybrid and pure cloud workfl ows, tx darwin is being launched at IBC2023 as a secure and fl exible media processing solution deployable anywhere in the content delivery chain. Techex says its system benefi ts
from years of experience supporting both on-prem solutions and expanding the functionality of cloud-native deployments.
As an extensible platform, the
product is built to accommodate virtually any media format in
common use, from uncompressed through to a wide range of codec options and streaming types. It includes comprehensive monitoring and analytics with many integrations, including
SIMPLE SEARCHING WITH AI Medialoopster BY KEVIN EMMOTT
With the launch of IMPA at IBC2023, medialoopster is hoping to change video production through the power of AI. Designed to leverage multiple AI applications simultaneously, IMPA provides advanced information extraction capabilities and intelligent search mechanisms to medialoopster’s Media Asset
Monitoring and analytics are at the heart of tx darwin
Infl uxDB, Dataminer and Grafana among other platforms for real-time monitoring and later root-cause analysis. With full-API control for Infrastructure as Code
deployments, the system’s media-processing functions are driven by a growing toolset of transforms crafted in-house as well as trusted third-party providers. 3.C55
Editorial text suggests a pre-selection of matching video sequences for each sentence
Management System. It makes it possible to search for content across almost all categories in both natural language and full sentences. Meanwhile editorial text can now be entered into IMPA as a search query and the software will automatically suggest a selection of matching video sequences for each sentence. Video sequences can then be selected and transferred to a timeline in the form of a rough cut.
Medialoopster says IMPA’s goal is to reduce the amount of work editors spend on researching material in postproduction,
enabling journalists and video editors to focus on their core video production skills. 7.C29
