AND ORAD ANNOUNCE STRATEGIC ALLIANCE
London, England, September 9, 2005…e-mediavision.com
announced today a strategic alliance with Orad Hi Tec Systems,
whereby e-mediavision.com will integrate its’ industry
leading presentation and broadcast graphics system, POINT-HD,
with Orad’s CyberSport sport enhancement system.
Kash Acharya, Managing Director of e-mediavision.com, comments, “We
are delighted to be working with Orad. This is a very promising
development and plays to the strengths and expertise of both
companies, giving customers more choice and fully integrated
systems for HDTV sports presentation.”
CyberSport is Orad’s ultimate live sport enhancement
and virtual advertisement tool that turns every sport event
into an original and exciting experience. CyberSport provides
a compelling and easy approach for live insertion of tied-to-the-field
3D graphics, animations and video. Regardless of camera movement
the inserted object remains at its position and creates the
illusion that the object is an integral part of the event.
POINT-HD is the latest generation of e-mediavision.com’s
popular touch screen telestration system that allows operators
to draw onto a TV picture in real time, accentuating content
and creating compelling viewing. Already established worldwide
as a premier sports presentation tool, POINT is in use with
European Broadcasters such as BBC TV and Sky TV in UK, Sky
TV in Italy, VTM in Belgium, SVT in Sweden, Canal + in Poland,
HRT in Croatia as well as Dubai TV, Kuwait TV and MNet in South
Africa. Applications include soccer, cricket, tennis, basketball,
horse racing as well as news, weather, conferences, training,
and corporate presentations.
POINT-HD addresses the need for high definition (HDTV) and
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 with simple
finger tip control. With the new Nitro-Pfx 3D graphics option
and the combination of POINT-2Key tool, presenters and journalists
can now comment and annotate with graphics which are drawn
onto the play sports surface, the graphics appear under players
on the field regardless of camera motion and provides a more
realistic and exciting viewer experience.
Ofir Benovici, Director of Marketing of Orad Hi Tec Systems

The integration between Points super telestration solutions
and Orad's state of the art sport enhancement tools will open
new dimensions for our customers".
