Chyron ships HyperX HD graphics system

Chyron Corporation has begun shipping the Duet HyperX HD graphics system to US customers, including Turner Studios in Atlanta, WJW-TV in Cleveland, and KAKM-TV in Anchorage, Alaska.
The Duet HyperX is an award-winning CG system that can be configured as HD only, SD only, or a combination HD/SD, offering solid investment value with a highly flexible and scalable migration path. Duet HyperX runs Lyric, Chyron's premier content creation and playout software, and in addition, a wide range of available features includes multi-channel operation, full motion compressed clips with key and Raid 5 storage. The system is MOS-ready and includes Chyron's industry-standard Intelligent Interface.
True 3D playout is easily achieved with the Duet HyperX. Sophisticated 3D-scenes and objects may be imported from a wide variety of sources, viewed and edited in true 3D space within Lyric, then incorporated within Lyric messages. All operations, including 3D, clips, and animations, are real-time with no rendering.
Rich Hajdu, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, said: "We are now able to offer an advanced CG system in HD with absolutely no compromise in performance. From animations to 3D playout, the Duet HyperX is extremely powerful and simple to operate."
Other options available for the HyperX include Lyricstore by Proximity, a graphics management system that enables users to search and deploy graphics content from a wide variety of devices for repurposing in Lyric. Chyron MOS is available for either Avid iNews or AP ENPS systems, and includes a simplified UI that enables fast updates to the producers rundown and easy image replacement for pre-built templates.
