Riedel Communications, a leading provider of live production tools in the worlds of media, sports and entertainment, has renewed its Gold sponsorship of SVG Europe.

The company’s hardware and software-based solutions span from distributed video and audio networks over intercom and replay solutions to WAN and MPLS applications, enabling customers to run even the most complex projects – on-site, remotely, or in the cloud.

Recent news for Riedel includes the launch of the Smart Audio & Mixing Engine SAME audio processing software suite, which offers extensive workflow automation and flexibility, and the Virtual SmartPanel (VSP), a software solution that enables users to leverage their mobile devices for remote intercom connections. The company has also invested in Apex Stabilizations, an Austrian manufacturer of high-quality camera stabilisation solutions, broadening its range of services and gaining access to highly specialised expertise.

In the world of sport, Riedel has been instrumental in the development of RefCam with the Bundesliga. The RefCam system includes a camera mounted on the referee’s head and a transmission unit on their belt, which sends live video signals to a receiving point, allowing viewers to see exactly what the referee sees during the game. This enables the broadcast of live footage of the referee’s perspective, enhancing viewers’ experience by providing an immersive view of the action.
