The National Association of Broadcasters held its annual event — NAB Show — in Las Vegas, NV on April 13–17. Each year, the tradeshow puts a spotlight on some of the most cutting-edge technological solutions designed to advance content production.
Panasonic Connect operated several exhibitor booths at this year's show, showcasing AV solutions that help users capture, create, and deliver quality content regardless of their production environment. From broadcast studios to event venues to meeting spaces, Panasonic Connect’s newest additions to our AV technology solution suite make content production easier and more efficient. These solutions and their benefits were on full display throughout NAB Show 2024.
Enhance Live Video Production with the New KAIROS Core
In content production, consumers often expect high-quality live content delivered to numerous platforms at once. Whether delivering to TV, streaming platforms, social channels, or even location-specific displays like wall content or LED ribbons, live video production needs to be nimble to achieve the best results.
Our KAIROS live video production platform was already top-of-the-line, winning a Best in Show Award at 2023’s NAB Show. In 2024, KAIROS got even better with core improvements that allow SDI-centric customers, regardless of production environment or scale, to enjoy the advantages of the KAIROS platform.
In addition to these core improvements, new partners were added to the KAIROS Alliance Partners program. They include:
With the additions, the program now boasts upwards of 50 partner companies. These partnerships ensure that KAIROS can be easily integrated into a multitude of customer-defined production systems.
Boost Content Production Quality with AW-UE30 PTZ Camera
One area of content production that can easily be overlooked is remote viewership of live events. Corporate businesses and higher education institutions especially know the importance of engaging remote participants and making sure that they are as engaged in proceedings as in-person attendees.
Our lineup of pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras offers a variety of capture solutions to ensure the best-quality video. During the 2024 NAB Show, the newest addition to this lineup, the AW-UE30 PTZ Camera was showcased. The PTZ camera offers many benefits for remote content production:
- Enhanced video streaming with 4K/30p images provides the clarity and immersive qualities that let remote participants feel as if they’re physically present.
- Compact design and quiet operation translate to zero disruptions for the in-person experience.
- Easy and efficient operation allows even inexperienced users to reap their benefits.
- Compatible for use with existing USB-based systems.
Award-Winning Media Production Suite Makes Content Production More Efficient
In the category of Camera Support, Control, and Accessories, our Media Production Suite (MPS) took home one of NAB Show’s 2024 Product of the Year Awards. It’s easy to see why.
MPS centralizes camera management and allows for a single operator to control multiple cameras remotely, facilitating high-quality content production with reduced cost and personnel requirements. The unified software platform is fully customizable with several plug-ins, including a new AI-powered Video Mixer. The Video Mixer eliminates the need for green screens by utilizing automatic image recognition that separates people from backgrounds to create chroma key-like compositions.
Transfer Control to Your PC or Tablet with AV-SF10 Software Control Panel
The newly announced AV-SF10 Control Panel allows for easy operation regardless of experience level. When connecting a networked PC or tablet to an AV-HSW10 switcher, it makes operation more intuitive. This opens up high-quality content production to users with minimal prior experience.
Panasonic Connect’s New AV Technology Lets Creators Be More Creative
Content production takes on many forms. From large-scale live broadcasts to intimate remote meetings, the highest-quality content is a reflection of the creativity and artistry of its creator.
With the right tools, creators in all environments are free to explore their creativity. Our AV tech solutions encourage that freedom, leading to the best possible content. For more information on our products and solutions, reach out to one of our experts.
