Lawo To Unveil HOME Downstream Kever

At this year's NAB NY (Booth 1013), Lawo will unveil HOME Downstream Keyer, a sophisticated and powerful HOME App for video.

Its feature set is closer to what a vision mixer provides than to what operators expect from a downstream keying function of the past.

"HOME Downstream Keyer allows operators to simultaneously and independently transition up to three key layers over an A/B background mix," commented John Carter, Lawo's Senior Product Manager, Media Infrastructure. "As Lawo's first mixing processing app, it comes with eight ST2110-20 receivers and two ST2110-20 transmitters. Each of the three Keyers can perform Luma, Linear or Self keying to provide the desired processing for high-end broadcast graphics designed with transparency and drop shadows."

The HOME Downstream Keyer app provides comprehensive keying and mixing capabilities to meet production needs and enable additional channel branding within a state-of-the-art, agile infrastructure, based on triggers issued via the VSM control system where desired.

As part of the HOME Apps suite, HOME Downstream Keyer can be deployed in both SDR and HDR workflows. It supports SMPTE ST2110 (incl. JPEG XS), NDI, SRT, and Dante AV* transport as required. Like all HOME Apps, and a growing number of other Lawo solutions, HOME Downstream Keyer can either be licensed perpetually or solicited on an ad-hoc basis through Lawo Flex Subscription credits.
