Omnitek To Demo Ultra XR At BroadcastAsia 2016

Omnitek will demonstrate its new Ultra XR 4K/UHD Waveform Analyser at BroadcastAsia 2016, stand 5J3-03. The company will also display its Ultra 4K Tool Box.

First launched at NAB 2016 last month, the Ultra XR has been created for colourists, post-production editors, and other content creatives working with ultra high-resolution UHD images in all SDI and HDMI formats.

The Ultra XR provides the traditional tools needed to work with DI – high-resolution waveform display, vectorscope, CIE chart – but is engineered specifically with 4K/UHD in mind. Supporting 12-bit 4:4:4 SDI input formats in YCbCr and RGB, the XR also supports the emerging standards for Wide Colour Gamut RGB (ITU-R BT.2020 and High Dynamic Range (HDR) inputs) ST2084 / PQ and Hybrid Log Gamma.

The XR complements the Ultra 4K Tool Box, both of which support a range of delivery methods and video formats, covering SD-SDI to 12G-SDI, HDMI and DisplayPort. The Ultra 4K Tool Box was created to allow manufacturers, designers, researchers, broadcasters and systems integrators to build, test and commission 4K products and systems with confidence, and was the first test & measurement solution into the market with full support for 12G-SDI. Features of the 4K Tool Box include 12G Eye & Jitter and the ability to both capture and play-back full-raster video in all supported video standards.

At BroadcastAsia 2016, Omnitek will also showcase the Picture Quality Analysis facilities of the 3G-capable OTM1000 and OTR1001 waveform analysers.

Rob Arnold, Vice President of Worldwide Sales, Omnitek, said: "We see test and measurement equipment as a vital element of the production landscape and with 4K/UHD here to stay there is a lot of interest in how to support, manufacture, test, integrate and operate this new technology at Broadcast Asia."
