For this production, LiveConnect deployed its specialized platform, powered by QuickLink’s StudioCall technology, to facilitate real-time links between the Amsterdam UMC Department of Pulmonology and the conference venue. The system proved critical in achieving an uninterrupted and lifelike experience for both physicians and attendees.

At the heart of LiveConnect’s setup was QuickLink StudioPro video production platform.  Purpose-built for producing professional live productions and designed for intuitive operation, it features highly integrated remote guest contribution, and ensures high-quality, low-latency video production and delivery without compromising reliability. 

“StudioPro allowed us to effortlessly switch between three different locations while streaming and recording simultaneously in HD,” says Jeroen Kosterman, CEO of LiveConnect. “We also have the ability to add lower-third titles, graphics and videos into the presentation. For the IP connections, we used LiveConnect.network, powered by QuickLink’s StudioCall, which provided a reliable network foundation, offering minimal latency, complete control and maximum video quality. The low-latency was especially crucial during the session, so that questions could be asked during specific moments in the procedure, without any delay.”

Adding to the production’s innovation was QuickLink’s newly launched StudioPro Proton control panel. For the LiveConnect team, the control panel simplified the complex live switching and monitoring processes.

During the live session, medical procedures performed at Amsterdam UMC were transmitted in real-time to an extra-large screen within the RAI auditorium. The resulting experience gave viewers the sensation of standing alongside the physicians, which was made possible via QuickLink’s one-frame delay IMAG feature.
