Thinklogical, a leading provider of fiber optic KVM extension and switching solutions, today announced the launch of its next generation image processor and converter, the ImageEvolution X3.
This premium solution for professional broadcast applications provides an easy method for conversion and scaling of video signals. Unique in the broadcast marketplace the product now offers progressive, interlaced and PsF input/output supported formats, a must-have addition to image processing. The solution will be on display at the NAB 2010 show for broadcast professionals.
This highly affordable processor imparts a robust integrated design, which in turn offers an extraordinary set of high-end features in a single device. The ImageEvolution X3 is equipped with a full breadth of video processing capabilities such as, per-pixel motion-adaptive video noise reduction which removes the white Gaussian noise present in most types of video, content-adaptive block and mosquito noise reduction which significantly reduces these artifacts present in compressed video, natural depth expansion, and adaptive scaling, just to name a few. Moreover, this all can be done in real-time which will ultimately save users time and money, while providing exceptional image results.
"The new X3 solution offers broadcast professionals the most robust set video processing technologies available, and will maximize returns on production costs," states Kevin Keefe, Director of Engineering. "The addition of the PsF capability to this product is a very significant feature which broadcast engineers have been continually requesting. This will really put the product line at the leading edge of image processing and conversion."
The ImageEvolution X3 represents great strides in video technology and is capable of converting and scaling SD, HD, dual-link HD, and 3G. In addition, it provides up to 20 user programmable presets that make image conversion and scaling effortless. System features include support for 8 channels of embedded audio and ancillary data. Users are able to control the ImageEvolution X3 through its front panel multi-function selector and LCD display, and an RS-232C port is available for remote control of the unit. An internal universal AC power supply, means no wall wart, so the product can easily be stand-alone or rack mounted.
NAB attendees are invited to stop by Thinklogical's booth (SL4729) in the South Hall during expo hours to see demonstrations of all the new solutions.
