Oct 5, 2008 8:00 AM
Autodesk has integrated AJA's video technologies into its Autodesk Lustre 2009 digital color grading system. Autodesk has incorporated AJA video cards into its Autodesk Inferno, Autodesk Flint, Autodesk Flame, Autodesk Fire and Autodesk Smoke advanced systems products since 2006.
Lustre is Autodesk's high-performance, GPU-accelerated color grading solution made for film and TV professionals. AJA technologies are being integrated into the system to bring SD, HD, 2K and 1080p files into Lustre and to transfer finished clips back to tape.
"We've been using AJA's OEM technologies in our Flame and Smoke systems for over two years now with great success," said Stig Gruman, VP of Autodesk's Digital Entertainment Group. "AJA's technologies are reliable, stable and provide the pristine video quality that our customers depend upon. As a result, we have now chosen to incorporate AJA I/O solutions into our Lustre color grading system as well."
