Exhibits Devoted to NextGen TV
In addition to the commercial displays of NextGen TV gear the Connect "Experiential Zone" located in the NVCC's West Hall, is another "must-see" exhibit for those wishing to stay informed on the latest 3.0 developments and witness them in action. The Zone is presented by Hartland Video Systems (HVS) and will feature equipment from multiple companies.
"The 'NextGen Now' area provides an overview of NextGen TV workflow as it is being used today," said Dennis Klas, HVS President, and owner. "As an experienced integrator involved in over 30 ATSC 3.0 market launches HVS (will showcase) 3.0 equipment from multiple companies and explain their function within the air chain.”
He added that his company is ready to assist prospective ATSC 3.0 encoding and transmission via the following setups:
Synamedia encoding followed by Triveno Digital ROUTE/Gateway feeding a Rohde exciter and displayed on a Samsung receiver.
Ateme encoding via an Enensys ROUTE/Getaway and sent to a Teamcast excited with the display on an LG Electronics TV.
Harmonic encoding with a DigiCap RPITE/Gateway feeding a GatesAir exciter and displayed on a Sony NextGen receiver. These demos will include a look at the various graphical user interfaces associated with these three “air chains,” and the carious 3.0 parameter settings available. The NextGen Now exhibit will feature equipment from the DS Broadcast, SAF, Sencore, VideoFlow, Video Clarity, and DekTec.
