Eyeheight announce IRIS vision mixer

IRIS, a powerful and versatile SDI digital vision mixer with up to 12 inputs, is now available from Eyeheight.
Designed for use in compact postproduction studios, outside broadcast and mobile production vehicles, or wherever space is at a premium, IRIS performs full 10 bit mixing with programmable mix times and automatic or manual transitions. The mixer includes an input synchroniser, plus an internal SDI reference ensuring continued operation in the absence of source signals. Up to eight downstream keyers can be incorporated.
Developed from the field-proven geNETics-based PresTX master control switcher, IRIS is fully compatible with Eyeheight's wide product range and occupies a compact 1U FB-9 Flexi-Box chassis with remote control panels.
A wipe, edge and matte generator with user-adjustable edges is incorporated, while crosspoints can be controlled by a programme/preset pushbutton panel with T-bar vision mix/wipe.
IRIS is designed to handle widescreen and standard aspect ratios and is available for 625 and 525-line markets.
The mixer will make its first exhibition appearance on the Eyeheight booth SU6634 (South Hall, Upper Floor) at the NAB 2003 Convention in Las Vegas.
