Appear launches new cloud-driven media processing software platform

ISE and IBC showcase the need for both broadcast and proAV to be routinely reliable and accessible during transmission. Jan Weigner, CTO at Cinegy, highlights the movement to software and IP being a key trend, as well as the impact of streaming in broadcast.

Purchasing decisions made by Amino’s customers are being driven by the migration of legacy broadcast tech to IP. Group CEO Mark Carlisle explains how data and analytics powered by AI can be used to help those making the switch to increase content engagement. Cybersecurity and return on investment are also key considerations to the adoption of new IP-based technologies.

Camilla Powell, Head of Product at Disguise, believes the biggest convergence between broadcast and proAV is in the uptake of IP. While broadcast has its roots in SDI, many of the barriers to IP adoption no longer exist. LED screens have also become more prevalent at ISE this year, replacing a large proportion of projection-based displays. Powell also stresses the importance of training new talent, pointing to the shortage of skills in new technologies such as IP workflows and AI.
