UNAM Chooses Dayang's Generator And Graphics Animation System

The National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) Campus Acatlan has chosen Dayang's D-Cube-CG 3D character generator and graphics animation system to brand its UNAM-CCTV educational television channel.
"UNAM-CCTV decided on the D-Cube-CG 3D after an intensive study of the available character generators and an onsite demonstration organised by our Mexican reseller, Colour Cassettes SA de CV," commented Ernesto Araoz, Dayang International's Director, Sales & Marketing, Latin America. "The channel's operational and engineering staff were impressed by the instrument's versatility, the very high quality of its output, its 3D capabilities and the user-friendly control system which allows fast operation during live transmission as well as offline. The D-Cube-CG-3D has been installed in UNAM-CCTV's main control room on Acatlan campus.
Dayang's D-Cube-CG 3D character generator enables broadcasters and post-production facilities to create graphics, titles and animation, including real-time control of the motion-path of individual characters. Running on an open PC platform, it incorporates editable news report templates for fast text editing and delivery. Weather forecasts can be generated automatically from title style templates, including electronic data code and individual transition/display effects for each object. Financial and stock reports can be also generated automatically in response to real-time imported stock exchange data. Database-oriented template control of sports broadcasts allows information on specific teams and players to be generated and real-time updated, complete with scores and statistics.
D-Cube-CG-3D can be used standalone or networked. Dual channel configuration with preview/programme output enables preview of next delivery event, including individual control of each channel. All major written languages are supported as well as many minority scripts. A high definition version is also available, D-Cube-CG-HD, and is becoming increasingly popular among broadcasters as they progress to widescreen 720p/1080i transmission.
UNAM is held to be one of the "most respected and culturally valuable" universities in Latin America.
