Spotlight on Switchers: Cross Over Switching

2009-04-23T19:46:00.000-07:00

Ross Video is launching the compact CrossOver series, which targets mobile or space constrained professional production environments. CrossOver comes in 4 configurations. The CrossOver 6 supports 6 Multi-Definition inputs, 2 keyers and has 6 source selection buttons. The CrossOver 12 supports 12 MD inputs, 3 keyers and has 10 source selection buttons as well as a rugged positioner. CrossOver 6 SD and CrossOver 12 SD offer similar connectivity to their respective peer devices, in cost reduced Standard Definition-only versions. Ross Video will also be offering an unprecedented MD upgrade migration program for the SD models. Other important applications for the CrossOver switchers include master control branding in television production and live mixing to on-set monitors and IMag screens such as those found in corporate, educational and worship settings. Its separate control panel and production chassis architecture is ideal for easy and rapid deployment into professional production facilities. Available now. www.rossvideo.com

Steve Wozniak chats about Apple history

2009-04-20T20:22:00.000-07:00

[Recorded Dec 10, 2002]
"Woz" serves up Apple Computer history in his own unique way. In this lecture and Q&A session, Steve provides a rational understanding of many of the innovations leading to early Apple designs. He looks at the early company structure, the personalities that influenced him, and personalities within the company. In addition, he discusses the reasons he wants to be an engineer for life but not a CEO. An entertaining, informative, and very personal view from one of the founders of a corporate and cultural icon.

Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED)

2009-04-19T20:04:00.000-07:00

Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLED) is one of the most promising lighting technology for future lighting solutions. The OLED technology is the first real area light source technology in history.

It overcomes traditional restrictions by point source lighting technologies (e.g. light bulbs or LED). Their features could be the starting point for highly efficient homogenous area light sources. Beside the area aspects, OLED shows also the possibility for innovative light sources, e.g. structured light sources for signage, color-variable, transparent and flexible light sources. At the Plastic Electronic 2008 show the Fraunhofer IPMS presents for the first time an important innovation in OLED lighting: the worldwide first interactive touch controlled flat light source. Based on the fact that OLED is a cold light source, touching control is a safe operation.

“The touch function generate a completely new feeling of light. It´s like magic: turn on the light simply by a hand movement.” noted Jörg Amelung, head of business unit of organic materials and systems at the Fraunhofer IPMS.

Switching and dimming the light could be easily controlled by a hand movement, which overcomes the traditional controller function. Normally, the implementation of touch functions requires additional touch foils on the top of the devices. The new developed touch function requires no additional hardware, because the OLED itself is used to read out the touch signal – that´s the breakthrough, reached by the Fraunhofer IPMS. In nearly every OLED this touch function could be implemented based on an for this purpose optimized readout circuit. This fact reduces the costs for the system and don´t influence the OLED efficiency.
