Dublin,
9 August 2007 - Zandar Technologies, a leading technology
innovator and pioneer in MultiViewer systems, is launching
their next generation Predator Series MultiViewer
at the IBC 2007 exhibition.
|
At their stand at IBC 2007, Zandar Technologies are
revealing the next generation of their Predator series,
the Predator II. The Predator II was created in response
to feedback from customers and integrators and is a
major step towards the control room of the future. The
Predator II improves the efficiency of viewing and monitoring
a multitude of sources and is designed for TV stations
and broadcasters in production, outside broadcast, master
control, transmission and confidence monitoring.
The
Predator II retains the pristine image quality and
minimal frame delay that are central to Zandar’s
Predator Series and offers enhanced monitoring functions
for the control of multiple systems in a scalable
virtual Wall. It allows seamless integration with
third party equipment and controllers and fast response
through status reporting using Video, audio, metadata
and system data monitoring. By virtualising ancillary
equipment such as UMDs, tally lamps and studio clocks,
it allows savings on not only ancillary equipment,
but also on space, power and Air Conditioning.
Based
on next generation video processing technology, it
allows advanced alarm-based detection of technical
faults commonly encountered in a control-room. It
offers aspect ratio management to facilitate both
4:3 and 16:9 broadcasts, auto-sensing HD-SDI, SDI
and composite video PAL or NSTC inputs via BNC, removing
the need for converters and easing migration to HD.
The improved graphics engine offers scalable text,
additional fonts, 3D graphics, logos, bitmaps and
faster refresh rates. The 2RU enclosures additionally
feature dual redundant power supplies for 24/7 operation.
Alongside
the new Predator II, Zandar will be displaying their
complete range of Zandar MultiViewers including the
Predator HD and FusionPro+ series as well as advanced
control options such as Z-Controller and Z-Configurator.
High-profile
broadcast and production environments across the globe
