As part of its innovative, hands-on approach, the school is creating an Environmental Studio, a modern media production and broadcast facility. Partnering with CBS Broadcasting, which is a sponsor of HSES, RTS has donated an ODIN digital intercom matrix to the project.

Vivid Broadcast steps up to IP with ROAMEO
UK-based outside broadcast and flypack specialist Vivid Broadcast has upgraded to an IP-based workflow thanks to an investment in ROAMEO wireless intercom. The company currently operates three flypacks and two small outside broadcast trucks, the latest of which sports an ADAM-M frame fitted with OMNEO IP cards, two KP-5032 keypanels and seven KP-3016 keypanels, plus four ROAMEO beltpacks which communicate with two access points.

 
For large events such as awards shows, concerts and festivals, Vivid's provide a stand-alone Comms system built around the ADAM-M. One recent event at London's O2 Arena used 24 ROAMEO beltpacks - reputed to be the highest count used on a UK event - by simply designing a system that places access points where fiber access points for video are already in place.

 
Special Projects Engineer Stephen Montgomery points out how well the ROAMEO packs have been received: "They're easy to use, no matter whether it's a floor manager speaking with the director without the need for two radios or a technical manager who can use his iPhone headphones - each with packs set up for their personal requirements. A wireless key panel is how we describe it. And it's all with absolutely zero drop-out as we move around a venue." According to company Director Rory Springthorpe, the decision to invest in RTS "has really paid off because Comms form such a vital part of projects. We work a lot in stadiums and with ROAMEO we can offer clients a substantially improved level of communication. We'll now be rolling out the new ODIN across our flypacks meaning all our clients will benefit. The level of support from RTS has been superb."
