TURN YOUR 4K CAMERA INTO 4 HD CAMERAS FOR A LIVE PRODUCTION APPLICATION Datavideo, a leading manufacturer of live video production equipment, is proud to announce a new product that revolutionizes the way 4K cameras are used for live video productions. The KMU-100 is a unique 4K multi-camera production solution that delivers multi- ple virtual full HD (up to 1080p) scaled camera angles with minimal installation cost and simple operation. The basic concept is straightfor- ward: The output of a single 4K/UHD camera is connected to KMU-100, which then displays up to four 16x9 user-defined cropped windows that are sent out as four separate HD signals through HD-SDI. These user-defined windows can be scaled to zoom in on a particular subject that you would like to highlight on the 4K signal. An addition- al 4K camera could be connected to allow up to eight defined outputs from the two 4K signals. As an option, the Datavideo RMC-180 camera controller can be added to easily pan, tilt and zoom to create the user defined win- dows on the 4K signal. You can set up these shots in advance and save them as presets, or you can do it in real-time. For example, if you wanted to broadcast a live three-piece band con- cert using a 4K camera, simply set up the 4K/UHD camera with a wide angle shot, then connect the camera output to the KMU-100. Use the RMC-180 con- troller to select up to four 16x9 win- dows which could be positioned with a joystick as well as resized from any part of the original 4K signal. You can now have the following shots: wide angle of the band; a close up shot of the lead singer; close up drummer and drum set; and close up of piano player. These four virtual camera signals (up to 1080p) could be connected to any HD-SDI switcher, giving the illusion of a multi camera production when in reality, you only have one 4K camera. "Finally, it's viable to use a 4K camera in live multi-camera produc- tion," states Craig Moffat, Managing Director of Datavideo US. "Imagine how convenient it would be to set up a live video production for concerts, press conferences, sporting events or a worship service. No camera operator needed and minimal set-up time – a real game changer for live video pro- ducers." About Datavideo Datavideo Corporation is a leading manufacture for live video equipment that provides complete production and streaming solutions that are reliable, affordable and easy to use. Datavideo has been serving the broadcast, educa- tion, sports and house of worship mar- kets for over 30 years.
