Vaddio Now Shipping RoboSHOT Elite Camera with NewTek NDI

Vaddio has equipped its RoboSHOT® 30E PTZ Camera with NewTek NDI, a technology that allows video systems to automatically detect and communicate with one another over IP, enabling video workflows across Ethernet networks.

The RoboSHOT 30E NDI Camera premieres its high bandwidth NDI PTZ camera to the market and offers low latency, high quality, and best performance in the NDI ecosystem. As an NDI-enabled camera, it uses a higher bandwidth than the high efficiency/low bandwidth NDI|HX stream. The RoboSHOT 30E NDI Camera is a recognizable video source by other NDI-enabled applications and devices connected to a standard local area network. In addition, the camera’s pan/tilt/zoom and other controls can be accessed through NDI, creating a complete IP workflow for operator control.

“By creating an NDI-capable camera based on our RoboSHOT Elite cameras, our customers will have the ability to create complete IP workflows for classrooms, houses of worship, medical simulation labs, and other applications requiring capture and presentation of high quality video content,” said Darrin Thurston, Vice President of Product Development at Vaddio. “NewTek’s NDI technology complements Vaddio’s product philosophy of being simple to install and operate for our customers.”

“The video world has moved to computers, software and networks. NDI-enabled RoboSHOT 30E cameras are far more powerful and easy to use than ever before because they can now be deployed as an IP camera on a customer's existing network, without the need for any new infrastructure,” said Michael Kornet, Executive Vice President and General Manager of NDI for NewTek. “This increases the video sources available for live production, creating efficiencies and opportunities for customers that did not previously exist. NDI is the dominant IP video technology in the industry and is in the hands of millions of customers today.”

NewTek’s NDI technology allows video and audio sources to be shared across a network, eliminating the need for costly direct connections, expensive cable runs, and infrastructure upgrades while turning every source into a destination instantly available anywhere on the network.

RoboSHOT Elite Series Cameras, Vaddio’s next generation of professional cameras, are designed with an 1/2.5-type Exmor R CMOS sensor and deliver striking, high-definition video image quality. Cutting-edge image signal processing (ISP) results in better light-gathering capabilities, incredible contrast and sharp 1080p/60 video, even in dim lighting conditions. RoboSHOT Elite cameras are equipped with enhanced wide dynamic range, which can help correct for environments with uneven lighting by making darker or over-bright areas in video more visible and detailed.

About NDI

NDI is in use on millions of devices and allows multiple video systems to identify and communicate with one another over IP. NDI can encode, transmit and receive many streams of high quality, low latency, frame-accurate video and audio in real time. This benefits any network-connected video device, including video mixers, graphics systems, capture cards, and many other production devices. This makes it possible to exponentially increase the number of sources available for live production switching, without directly attaching to devices, changing locations, or investing in expensive, high-bandwidth networks that simply replace SDI-based workflows.
