The digital media and digital cinema industry is always on the lookout for solutions that both improve the experience for the consumer, and simplify the production and post-production workflow for industry pros. At this year’s NAB, Fraunhofer Digital Cinema (booth #C8931) revealed the latest technology developments that meet this need:

The first test shoot for its light-field technology for moving pictures

Fraunhofer IIS is presenting the first live-action test shoot using its light-field media production system. In a joint project with the Stuttgart Media University, Fraunhofer is showcasing how moviemakers can use the multi-camera system to bring the creative possibilities typically only possible with CGI in post-production to live-action movie production.

New tools for easyDCP

Fraunhofer IIS is presenting new tools and features for its easyDCP suite 3.2. These include features to ensure easy and correct handling of DCPs and IMPs, an asset management tool and hybrid JPEG 2000 encoding. Learn more here.

The first integration of lightweight coding technology LICI

As the demand for ultra HD/4K content grows, post-production and broadcast pros are challenged to efficiently transport video over available infrastructures. Fraunhofer IIS’ lightweight coding technology (LICI) addresses this by adjusting video streams to the available infrastructure and bandwidth without sacrificing quality. To bring this technology to the market, Fraunhofer IIS announced its integration into IHSE’s KVM extender. To learn more, check out the news release.
