EasyTools takes part in RGlab interactive TV demonstration
The RGlab Interactive TV demonstration, organised by France Télévisions in partnership with Harmonic, Visual On and Intel®, shows how viewers can dynamically choose their point of view during a tennis game, with no latency or quality loss.
It’s a new way to consume live sports on mobile devices, as if the viewer were physically present.
This demonstration was made possible thanks to the technology of several French and international companies, including EasyTools.
EasyTools contributed with its expertise in multiviewers. The demonstration is based on a 4K multiviewer with IP output, using four cameras around the stadium. The four video streams are successively deinterlaced with upscaling, overlayed with a logo and optionally a timecode, and composited in a 4K multiviewer, where the streams are perfectly synchronised. The multiviewer is then hardware encoded using Intel® Quick Sync technology.
We are delighted to take part in this RGlab to demonstrate our multiviewer products. This is a whole new application for this kind of product, aimed at viewers. The project also showcases our innovations in hardware video compression and advanced video processing.
This new interface could quickly be made available to end users during sports and cultural events.
