Hanover, Md.– Broadcast Sports, Inc. (BSI)a leading developer and service provider of wireless camera, audio and communication systems has partnered with NAC of Japan to develop RF links for NAC’s high speed video camera. This engineering achievement from BSI means that, for the first time, the high speed NAC equipment can be used without cables, and directors can place it anywhere where there is RF coverage at an event.
NAC manufactures high speed camera systems and prides itself on producing complete, integrated systems with the most light sensitivity, the best image quality, the largest memory capacities, the smallest camera heads, the fastest download times and the most inclusive software packages in the industry. The NAC camera operates at 400 frames per second compared to a normal HD camera, which operates at 25 frames per second. This means that High Definition video can be slowed right down to show even the fastest sports action in minute detail, frame by frame, in sports action replays.
BSI’s wireless implementation of the NAC system retains the camera’s full capability. At the heart of this new wireless system is BSI’s own Dual Stream Mini Transmitter which provides the RF links for the live and playback video streams while a separate receiver provides the link for the remote control.
BSI has just completed the development of the wireless links for the NAC camera and will exhibit the new system, for the first time ever, at IBC this year.
"The NAC camera was not designed to be wireless, and this was not an easy development," says BSI’s Technical Director Tony Valentino. "The engineering work was a major achievement for BSI and now this new system has everything that’s required for live sports broadcasts."
BSI will be demonstrating the NAC in wireless mode along with other BSI products and services during IBC at RAI Amsterdam in Hall 5, Stand B20. To schedule an interview with one of BSI’s experts during IBC, contact Colleen Stanley at 443-904-4038 or colleen.stanley@l-3com.com.
