PNY showcases real-time HD-SDI graphics system

PNY, in tandem with Brainstorm Multimedia and Google Earth, last week demonstrated how its NVIDIA Quadro FX SDI graphics card can enhance live HD broadcasts with real-time 3-D graphics.

Exhibiting its line of HD-SDI products at HD World 2007 in New York, PNY demonstrated its NVIDIA Quadro FX SDI powering eStudio, Brainstorm’s virtual studio and 3-D broadcast graphics software. Used by broadcasters, eStudio can generate real-time 3-D graphics for live HD sports broadcasts, HD programming with HD-SDI graphics and real-time HD virtual sets for news, sports and weather.

While running Google Earth, Google’s satellite imagery-based mapping product, the card —running on a dedicated broadcast server — produced photorealistic 3-D images and maps for HD broadcast graphics.

Delivering uncompressed SDI in 2K, HD or SD formats, the NVIDIA Quadro FX SDI graphics boards can be integrated into a range of professional broadcast solutions.
