Omnitek has said the Ultra XR will commence shipping at IBC 2016.

The product provides test and measurement tools specifically designed for colour grading, post production and program QC in the 4K/UHD domain.

Offering 'true' 4K/UHD waveform analysis, the Ultra XR provides traditional test and measurement tools such as picture monitor, true 4K waveform monitor, vectorscope, histograms, BT.709 / BT.2020 CIE gamut charts, sample/pixel monitor, video timing, audio meters and video / audio / ANC status instruments, all provided as standard for SD to 4K resolutions.

In addition, the Ultra XR also provides support for 12-bit 4:4:4 SDI input formats in YCbCr, RGB, and XYZ, Wide Color Gamut RGB – ITU-R BT.2020 and High Dynamic Range (HDR) inputs – ST2084 / PQ and Hybrid Log Gamma.

Complementing the XR, the Ultra 4K Tool Box offers tools for product design and 4K system infrastructure testing. The 4K Tool Box has been shipping since summer 2015 and provides comprehensive diagnosis tools such as 12G-SDI Eye & Jitter analysis and full raster-video capture and playout (including ANC information).

Both the Ultra XR and the Ultra 4K Tool Box offer support for an array of delivery methods and video formats, covering SD-SDI to 12G-SDI, HDMI and DisplayPort.

Rob Arnold, VP of Worldwide Sales at Omnitek, said: "IBC has always been a focal point of our year at Omnitek and we're excited to announce that our new Ultra XR will start shipping at the show. It's our third generation T&M product and is the cumulative effort of our engineering team with over 15 years of experience in the industry."
