Saelig Introduces Affordable Professional Video Processing
Pittsford, NY: HQView range of Image Scalers offers compact, affordable, high performance HDMI/DVI/Component /VGA analog to HDMI/DVI with powerful real-time image processing such as geometry correction for off-axis projection, pin/barrel, image rotation and artifact reduction. Many consumers are deeply disappointed with HD display installations when some of the content comes from lower quality images. HQView Image Scalers address these concerns head-on with a selection of products to suit many situations, processing video content to bring even SD up to near-HD image quality, while also reducing image flicker and other artifacts. Harnessing the power of IDT's Reon video processor, HQView scalers employ state-of-art HQV algorithms with high quality hardware and firmware, providing stunning image quality in demanding applications such as professional AV, staging, broadcast, worship and meeting venues, digital cinema, medical, corporate, education, etc.
Compact HQView100 and HQView200 convert Composite/S-Video or 3G-SDI into high resolution DVI/HDMI formats with powerful HQV algorithms for best possible image quality at all times. The 3G-SDI model is particularly useful for interfacing the new 3G-SDI broadcast format to existing projectors and editing suite/control room displays.
HQView300/310/320 provide geometry, blend and warp processing capabilities for DVI/HDMI, VGA Analog (via DVI-I) and Component Video signals, housed in a compact package for installation behind a projector or in a control desk.
Rack-mounted HQView400 provides flexible geometry correction functions able to correct image shape and projector misalignment by dragging and dropping each image corner, by pin/barrel/rotation, or by keystone and rotation. HQView410 adds 4- sided soft edge blend for seamless blending of multiple projectors as well as providing all the geometry correction capabilities of HQView400. HQView420 additionally supports full warp mapping for projection on to curved and irregular surfaces with precise image alignment, as well as blend and geometry correction. Flexible, intuitive PC software is provided for easy warp map creation, but third-party-generated warp maps can also be processed from automatic image alignment systems, making HQView420 ideal for precisely aligned dual-overlay 3D-projection systems.
HQView400DC is optimized for the alternate video content input of market-leading 4K and 2K digital cinema projectors. This scaler has been designed to offer stunning image quality from a range of consumer and professional AV sources, with flexible connectivity and a compact 1U form factor. Specially optimized for use with SonyCineAlta SRX- 320, SRX-210 and SRX-220 digital cinema projectors as well as digital cinema projectors from other leading manufacturers. HQView- 400DC can be used as both a routing switcher and a universal interface. Its range of inputs includes HD-SDI/SD-SDI, HDMI 1.3, DVI, VGA, component YPbPr/RGBS, composite and S-Video, with signal compatibility up to 1080p and WUXGA resolutions and builtin web browser remote-control. HQView400DC answers the need for processing alternate video content into cinema-quality signals and full compatibility with leading digital cinema projectors, and at an affordable price.
