The company will highlight developments across the MediorNet, Artist, Bolero, StageLink, SimplyLive, and Managed Technology portfolios.

Riedel will use NAB Show 2026 to introduce hi human interface to the U.S. market. The company describes it as a browser-based and vendor-agnostic control system for broadcast and AV environments.

According to Riedel, hi human interface allows operators to configure, control, and manage routers, multiviewers, mixers, and third-party SDN controllers through one workflow tool. The company says the platform supports both baseband and IP infrastructures and is designed for fast deployment and scaling.

Riedel will also highlight MediorNet, its hybrid SDI-IP media network. The company says MediorNet combines decentralized baseband devices such as MediorNet MicroN UHD with the hybrid MediorNet HorizoN platform for signal transport, routing, and processing across SDI and IP environments.

At NAB Show 2026, Riedel will also introduce the new MediorNet HorizoN ST 2110 MultiViewer App. In addition, the company will show its MediorNet FusioN ST 2110-to-Monitor Gateway bundles for connecting ST 2110 video, audio, and ancillary data to HDMI and professional SDI monitors.

Riedel will also present SAME, which stands for Smart Audio and Mixing Engine. The company describes SAME as an audio processing software suite built on COTS server cluster technology.

Riedel says SAME is designed for scalable and automated workflows. In combination with the StageLink Network Stream Adapter family, it supports signal paths for audio and intercom over standard IP networks.

At NAB Show 2026, Riedel will launch the new StageLink NSA008-A. The company says this addition expands its decentralized IP audio I/O portfolio and supports workflows in Bolero and Artist environments.

Riedel SmartPanel and commentary control

Riedel will also expand the DSP-1216HL SmartPanel at NAB Show 2026. The company will introduce a new Commentary Control App for the platform.

According to Riedel, this app joins the existing Intercom, Control Panel, Audio Monitoring, and Linear Timecode Apps. The company says the five-app lineup gives the compact SmartPanel a broader role in broadcast control rooms, live events, OB vans, and theaters.

Riedel will also show new developments in its SimplyLive family at NAB Show 2026. These include the NAB debut of the Flex licensing model, the RiView video review system, next-generation RiMotion replay bundles, and the Venue Gateway 1612 Advanced.

The company says these products support scalable and software-defined live production. Riedel also says SimplyLive Connect, its REST-based API, and a new gRPC API help users integrate SimplyLive products into larger broadcast control systems and custom workflows.

NAB Show 2026 will also mark the U.S. premiere of Bolero Mini. Riedel says Bolero Mini is its lightest and thinnest wireless intercom beltpack so far. The company also says the unit includes 5G filter technology to improve resilience in difficult RF environments.

Riedel Virtual SmartPanel and managed technology

Riedel will also highlight the Virtual SmartPanel, which extends the SmartPanel concept to iOS, Android, tablets, and browsers. The company says the Virtual SmartPanel integrates with the Artist ecosystem, including Artist-1024, and supports remote and hybrid production workflows.

In addition, Riedel will present Managed Technology services in the Americas. These include RefSuite, which combines RefCam, RefBox, RefComms, SidelineComms, and RefCloud in one system for professional sports.

When used with Easy5G, Riedel says RefSuite supports secure transmission of RefCam video and remote RefBox workflows. The company says this is aimed at officiating, coaching, and broadcast operations.

Riedel will also give visitors a look at other group technologies, including APEX broadcast gimbals and V2Air drone orchestration solutions.
