As a result of the dramatic need for
lower cost and more persuasive
content, broadcasters are looking
towards new technologies, specifically
related to IP video. HaiVision delivers
to the broadcasters interactive (low
latency) terrestrial IP based options so
they may create compelling
contribution without the costs and
latencies of traditional backhaul
methods.
Broadcasters have historically relied on costly satellite or ATM based fixed
circuits. Combined with high latency broadcast encoding platforms such
services have been acceptable (yet costly) for broadcast contribution feeds, but
are very rigorous for any interactive contribution such as remote interviews.
The first issue is the latencies. Most apparent in satellite interviews, if the
talent (interviewee) is not full trained on interacting while compensating for the
high delays involved the interview can only last for a very short period. The
nuances of the communication are lost. The resulting production is difficult to
watch. Because of the lack of expression between the subjects, the content is
typically limited to brief facts, void of any emotion or persuasion.
Under pressure for more content, and more believable content, broadcasters are
now adopting systems that can support interactive content contribution. Due to
the latencies of satellite, they must turn to terrestrial networks. Due to costs and
difficulties in deploying historic ATM style circuits, they must look towards
IP.
HaiVision is the global leader in interactive IP video systems, with a strong
history in telepresence and interactive continuous presence education
deployments. Such systems are now being adopted by broadcasters to cost
effectively deliver interactive content.
HaiVision’s MAKO-HD within the hai1000 delivers the lowest latency
available (70 milliseconds), telecom grade reliability, multi-stream
architecture, and full frame rate performance for standard definition and
720p/1080i high definition. The hai1000 offers broadcasters a unique solution
for delivering more and higher quality content at previously unattainable cost
levels.
