Abu Dhabi Media, the parent company of networks like Abu Dhabi TV and AD Sports, has recently modernized its broadcast facilities.
The media giant, headquartered in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, has collaborated with Ideal Systems and ID8 Media for this significant upgrade.
Innovative Studio Design and Equipment
Ideal Systems, a renowned systems integrator, has taken the lead in designing the new studio layout. This includes a dedicated area for interviews and news anchors. The studio is notably enhanced with 1,100 square feet of high-resolution LED screens by LianTronics. These screens are powered by advanced H15 NovaStar processors, ensuring high-quality video wall displays.
Dynamic Video Walls and LED Features
The studio’s design boasts three main video walls. These walls are equipped with motors, enabling them to move and pivot, thus adding a dynamic element to the broadcast environment. A highlight of the design is a distinctive 7-sided LED display, surrounded by a central movable LED screen, creating a visually engaging setting.
Cutting-Edge Broadcasting Tools
The technology overhaul also includes a suite of solutions from Vizrt. This includes seven Viz Engines driving the video walls, Viz Multiplay for multiple video playbacks, and augmented reality graphics supported by Mo-Sys camera tracking.
Comprehensive Studio Equipment
Additional high-tech equipment in the studio encompasses Sony cameras, Vinten Osprey Elite camera pedestals for stable shooting, Autoscript EPIC-IP teleprompters for smooth news reading, ARRI SkyPanel lighting for optimal illumination, and a sophisticated Blackcam robotic camera system installed in the studio’s grid.
Enhanced Graphic Capabilities
To complement the technological advancements, ID8 Media has developed over 11 graphic packages and video wall loops specifically for Abu Dhabi Media. These are fully integrated with Vizrt systems and the new Viz Engine 5, ensuring a seamless broadcast experience.
