NewTek TriCaster Advanced Edition delivers augmented reality

At IBC 2015 NewTek will showcase its full range of TriCaster multi-camera video production solutions, along with its 3Play sports production solution and the acclaimed TalkShow VS-100 video calling production system. “NewTek has opened up the world of professional quality broadcasting to those with big ambitions regardless of budget,” says Dr. Andrew Cross, president and chief technical officer for NewTek. “Our range of live production solutions offer broadcasters and content creators unprecedented levels of professional functionality and visual impact that help them engage with their audiences, at an affordable cost.”

IBC 2015 will be the first international showcase for TriCaster Advanced Edition since it became available in May, providing broadcasters with augmented reality capabilities in their virtual studios, automated graphics creation based on data fields instead of manually typing in text, scores or stats, custom-programmable Web interface to control TriCaster from a browser, both audio and tally over IP, and mixing stored media clips right in their players while streaming live, and much more.

NewTek will also show a selection of its latest TriCaster models, including the flagship TriCaster 8000 which provides a premium 8 M/E production switcher, built-in failsafe and redundancy capabilities, and extensive router support for enhanced broadcast integration, massive multi-camera coverage, and mission critical high-end productions of any size.

The company will also demonstrate 3Play 4800, the most complete, integrated sports production solution available for broadcasters, pro leagues and teams, and large venues.

No other product combines as wide a range of live sports capabilities in one turnkey system, including slow motion, instant replay, multi-angle preview, in-game highlights and social media publishing, enabling producers to engage stadium fans, online viewers and broadcast audiences with greater ease and simplicity.

Also on the booth is TalkShow VS-100, the video calling production system designed specifically for television studios and live video producers, enabling them to connect to millions of connected Skype users and seamlessly integrate them as guest speakers into any live production.
