They literally “eat the mic,” creating not only terrible sound quality but making it impossible to get decent images without the mic blocking their face.
Development of new technology and moving to the newly available 5GHz spectrum continue to expand the creative and technical possibilities for audio across live performance and broadcast productions.
IBM Research has made a discovery that could help eliminate the need for heavy metals in battery production. This would aid environmental protection and eventually transform the long-term sustainability of portable energy production.
There’s a terrible tendency in cinematography to concentrate too much on the technology, overlooking creative skills that often make a huge contribution. In the last two pieces of this series we’ve gone into some detail on the historical background to current camera technology. In this last piece on the art and science of sensors and lenses, we’re going to consider what difference all this makes in the real world.
Video compression, bonded cellular technology and cellular networks have evolved to the level that giant planned events like the Super Bowl no longer challenge cellular service adequacy.
This year’s Super Bowl will be the first to offer 5G connectivity to fans in the stadia – but 5G contribution is a little way off.
LTN Global Communications helped Boombox successfully stream the 2019 FIA Gran Turismo World Championship Tour with live, broadcast-quality TV streams in 7 languages.
