❝ The timeline in the
broadcast industry is
sometimes prolonged.
For instance, if a company
introduces new technology
innovation, it will take at
least six months to a year
to get the customer to
understand the benefits.
People having also been
talking about IP and remote
production for many years,
and some of those are
happening right now. Of
course now there are also other technologies like artificial
intelligence (AI) and automation solutions, which are now
available in the market. ❞

❝ AJA has been a leader
in the high dynamic range
(HDR) colour space. We’ve
developed a family of
products including our
FS-HDR, which is a real-
time conversion solution.
This is exciting because
broadcasters are looking for
new and compelling ways to
create more exciting content,
especially when it comes to
sports, and this box allows
users to do it simply and in
real-time. ❞
Hans Massart,
Broadcast Market Director, Newtec
❝ The trends that we are focusing on is around IP
newsgathering. We see a
worldwide decline of the
typical satellite truck, which
needed to be operated by
engineers and is fairly large
and expensive, moving
towards adopting solutions
from the cellular bonding
world.
Personally, I see a lot of
uptake on cellular bonding
kits due to its ease of use.
But unfortunately, not always
cellular networks are available
and reliable, and that is still
where the satellite industry is
capable of supporting. ❞
