Soliton Systems To Demo Zao-S

At NAB 2017, Soliton Systems has announced that it will demonstrate the new Zao-S on booth SU4910.

Weighing 400g, the Zao-S is a miniature encoder that provides live video streaming direct from the camera to anywhere in the world. It is ideal for news gathering, sports production and other live outside broadcast events.

The new Zao-S offers a new dimension to mobile encoders providing live streaming on-location and is the next generation after H.264.

Shinya Hyakutake, Head of the Broadcast Division for Soliton in Japan, said: "Overcoming the technical challenges of fitting so much processing power into such a small unit has been monumental. Despite its size, it will work better than many of its competitors that are four times the size, twice the price and only H.264.

"At NAB in Las Vegas we will be showing the Zao-S in action. Its size will open up new applications that were previously impossible, and its cost allows for smaller organisations to acquire it where in the past this type of technology was cost prohibitive."
