4) Canon’s new LCOS projectors, Xeed SX7 and Xeed X700
Ultra
compact and ultra bright: Canon enhances its portable LCOS projector
portfolio introducing the new Xeed models featuring
4000 lumens and various multimedia connections. Canon’s AISYS technology
allows for a very compact design. A fully automated set-up together with a
top-quality 1.7 wide lens zoom guarantees excellent operating comfort. The
new professional flagship product in the Xeed
series is the SX7. The projector offers SXGA+ resolution. The lower priced Xeed X700 represents the entry level model in the LCOS
class featuring a stunning true XGA resolution. Canon’s AISYS technology is
the result of the company’s long standing experience in the AV industry. Both
new models are using a new 275 watt projector lamp. Various ports for DVI,
composite video, S-video, component video and SCART, via adapter, enable a
processing of almost any image signals – whether analogue or digital. Both models
can automatically detect all incoming signals.

5) Toshiba PDT: ex20 and ew25 only need 50 cm projection distance
 Toshiba presents the models ex20
and ew25. Both devices are characterized by the exceptionally wide-angle
Extreme Short Throw Projection (ESP) technology and therefore enable minimum
projection distances. Both models the ex20 and the ew25 conquer two problems
typically found in projection scenarios: Rooms that are too small for an
optimum image size and glaring projector light. Thanks to the used ESP
technology almost any room, no matter how small, is now suitable for
presentations. The extreme wide angle lens achieves an image diagonal of
around one meter at a projection distance of only 50 cm. If the projector is
mounted onto the ceiling, presenters can hold a presentation without being
blinded by the projector’s light. The short projection distance together with
the wide-angle lens project the image in an off-set angle of 130 degrees onto
the wall making presentations easy and trouble-free. Both the ex20 and the
ew25 were designed for applications with an interactive whiteboard. The new
Brilliant Color technology developed by Texas
Instruments is incorporated into both models – a true novelty.

14) Kramer adds New UTP CAT5 to its Extensive Bulk Cable Line
Kramer
Electronics is pleased to announce the introduction of three new products to
Kramer’s bulk cable collection: BC-XTP and BCP-XTP XGA Twisted Pair cables
designed to eliminate skew, and BC-2S speaker cable. The BCP-XTP and BC-XTP
resemble typical CAT5e cable, but with internal components optimized for
transmission of video/audio signals rather than high speed data. This is
accomplished by twisting all four pairs of wire at the same ratio so the
actual length of all four pairs is identical. While this configuration
renders it unsuitable for high speed data, in a video/audio application each
of the RGB color signals now arrive at the
destination at the same time. The result is a perfect image at the end of a
long run with no color shift or “skew.” Both the BC-XTP
and BCP-XTP cables are UTP unshielded twisted pair cables designed as the
ideal companion to Kramer twisted pair transmitter-receiver sets. These
flexible cables offer high-resolution, long distance transmission of RGB/VGA
signals to a variety of display devices. Both cables are constructed using 24
gauge solid copper conductors, and come in standard lengths of 330 feet and
990 feet (100 and 300 meters). The BCP-XTP is a plenum-rated version of the
BC-XTP cable, and complies with more stringent flame and smoke resistance
standards required for installation in plenum air return spaces.

23) RGB: The SuperView
for Chesapeake Energy Corporation
Chesapeake
Energy Corporation, independent producer of natural gas in the U.S., built a state-of-the-art
multimedia conference room in its Oklahoma City, Oklahoma headquarters. This new showpiece
meeting room, called the "Blue Room", is designed for corporate
meetings, video teleconferencing, various functions for Chesapeake's IT,
operations, geology, and engineering departments, lectures, and a movie theater for employees during off-work hours. To design
this cutting-edge facility, Chesapeake Energy turned to the audio visual
technology expertise of Moore, Oklahoma-based Audio/Video Designs Inc. Robert
Rogers, President and Owner of Audio/Video Designs, explained, "the
facility plan incorporated a highly functional and effective corporate meeting
room with entertainment capability in the same building housing an extensive
exercise facility equipped with a basketball court and pool. Chesapeake
Energy wanted the "Blue Room" to be a "one of a kind
experience" with superb lighting and audio-video presentation
capabilities utilizing state-of-the-art technology." "The client
required maximum display versatility, with the ability to present a myriad of
different image sources on a massive main screen. The challenge was to find a
multi-input display system that could support a range of signals, seamlessly
integrate and switch between sources, and display them with exceptional image
quality. RGB Spectrum's SuperView® multi-image
display processor was the ideal solution to meet this requirement. It is one
of the few products that supports the diversity and quantity of inputs
needed." The SuperView processor is capable of
displaying up to 12 separate images on a single screen from up to 36 switched
inputs. Multiple computers throughout the room, interlinked via wireless
network, feed the processor a variety of content, including PowerPoint
presentations, Excel spreadsheets, business documents, engineering drawings,
3D maps, geological imagery, scientific data, and topographical visuals.
Video sources include three video cameras interspersed around the room, a
video teleconferencing system, BlueRay and HD DVD
players, a DVD/VCR player, and local and national television broadcasts. The
processor integrates the multiple, disparate sources and outputs them to a
ceiling-mounted Christie S+12K Roadster DLP projector at 1920 x 1080 pixel
resolution for projection onto a massive 18-foot high by 32-foot wide screen.

24) Zandar help Long Island Rail Road to ‘Mind the Gap’
Three
Predator VC12 MultiViewers from Zandar
Technologies are helping drivers and passengers on a New York railway line to ‘mind the gap’. The
MultiViewers are part of a CCTV system that has
been installed at Syosset station on the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) in Nassau County, to improve passenger safety and
reduce the risk of accidents. Each of the station’s two platforms has been
fitted with 12 CCTV cameras and three 46-inch LCD flat-screen monitors which
receive the camera feeds. The monitors are positioned so that at least one
will be visible to the head conductor of each train, who is in the second or
fourth car, depending on the length of the train and the direction it is
heading. With the help of the MultiViewers, each
monitor can display any of the 12 views of that side of the station. This
gives conductors an unobstructed view of the length of the train as it runs
around Syosset station’s unusual curve. One MultiViewer
is used for each platform, with the third on standby as a backup. Zandar’s Predator VC12 processes up to 12 full-motion
composite video sources in real time for both confidence and quality
monitoring purposes. Each unit can also be expanded to add a combination of
2-4 video or computer inputs. It includes Zandar’s ZdH Dual Head capability and Z-Configurator
control software as standard. The Syosset system was supplied by Omnivue and specified by the LIRR. The LIRR required a
system that could reproduce outstanding image quality from the cameras and
the Zandar Predator VC12 was the only system of its
type that can split the images into six pictures and display them on a single
screen. Z-Configurator is used to set up the
display and zoom into individual cameras. The product has been working 24-7
since installation.

response to the IFA 2007.” The organisers, gfu and Messe Berlin, registered some 235,000 domestic and
international participants at this top-level meeting place in Berlin for the
industry, which also enables consumers to experience at first hand the
fascinating and innovative world of consumer electronics. Out of a total of
1,212 exhibitors from 32 countries, 733 companies, or 60 per cent, came from
outside Germany. There was also an increase in
the rented display area at the IFA 2007, by some twelve per cent. Now an
annual event, each year the IFA goes from strength the strength. The IFA 2008
