AND MAPCUBE PARTNER TO PROVIDE
REAL-TIME ON-AIR MAPPING AND GRAPHICS SOLUTIONS
London, England, September 9, 2005…e-mediavision.com
today announced a partnership with Mapcube, whereby e-mediavision.com
will integrate its POINT-HD system with Mapcube’s flagship
product, Mapcube Media. POINT is an industry leading presentation
and broadcast graphics system that provides SD and HD-SDI functionality
from a single system.
Mapcube Media is a high-resolution 3D map technology developed
for broadcasting. It enables generation of complete and accurate
maps in seconds. Mapcube comes with a variety of advanced map
creation features such as the ability to download and display
satellite and aerial imager that is free and unrestricted for
use through various sources.
POINT-HD is a touch screen system that allows operators to
draw onto a TV picture in real time, giving immediacy and extra
content to any broadcast. Applications include sports, news,
weather, conferences, training, and corporate presentations.
POINT-HD is ideally suited to live productions due to its ease
of operation. The control surface is a touch sensitive LCD
(or Plasma for in-shot use) screen or Holo Screen with a simple
graphical interface allowing fast and error free operation.
Combining these two leading technologies provides broadcasters
with a strong solution for their real-time, on-air mapping
and graphics needs, as presenters and journalists can now comment
and annotate the maps real-time versus traditional time-consuming
rendering, and then overlay the graphics onto the maps, providing
a more realistic viewer experience.
Kash Acharya, Managing Director of e-mediavision.com, states, “By
integrating Mapcube Media and Point-HD, two of the worlds leading
graphics products, we offer our clients a unique solution for
presenting high resolution 3D graphical maps and interactive
graphics in one solution in high definition. Presenters, journalists
and commentators can draw, point or annotate over live maps
with enhanced graphics that will captivate the viewer.”
John Ackerman, VP of Sales and Marketing, comments, “We
at Mapcube are very excited about partnering with e-mediavision.com
and integrating these two great products. Combining the graphics
power of Mapcube Media with the live presentation capabilities
of Point-HD will provide presenters a must-have tool for live
on-air presentations.”
