Autoscript Demonstrates Enhanced Prompting Capability At InterBee

Autoscript, a Vitec Group brand, showcased enhanced functionality for its industry-leading WinPlus prompting software at the International Broadcast Equipment Exhibition in Japan, from November 19-21, 2008.
WinPlus is the proven and stable prompting system deployed on over 4,500 Windows based systems in daily operation worldwide. For the Japanese market, Autoscript showcased the ability to prompt in English and in Japanese languages on the same screen without changing any hardware or software.
This functionality is standard in all WinPlus operating systems and gives the user the ability to prompt in columns from right to left to suit Japanese presentation as well as to freely insert English words.
Also featured was an array of prompting accessories with which any installation can be customised. These include Magno, a new range of presenter controls which utilise frictionless magnetic technology to deliver a longer life span than conventional controllers.
Brian Larter, Worldwide Managing Director, Autoscript, said: "Ever since Autoscript became the first western prompting company to sell into Japan, we have considered it an extremely important market. That relationship is valued even more now that newsroom production in the region is beginning to change dramatically. We've consistently supported the InterBEE show as one of the primary routes to talking to Japanese customers and look forward to working with many of them going forward."
