Our product line reflects our deep knowledge of broadcast engineering disciplines and production processes, coupled with expertise in information technology, Internet technologies, and new media. VDS has built a solid, uniform engineering architecture, which allows flexibility, rapid deployment, and stability. Our platform is proven in the field every day. Not just Automation - Intelligent Automation. We make your playout automation system smarter, allowing it to respond in real-time to external data (case study), trigger devices to display dynamic content (AutoClips), and much more. However you want to display your data, we can make it happen with high impact and low stress. All real-time and driven by any number of data feeds or authoring stations, controlled via automation (News Suite), trigger box, or playout software (example). VDS personnel have decades of experience in Broadcast and Visual Media and offer new and innovative display ideas for your CG, Clip Player, Still Store, or Animation Playout Device. Concepts that you may never have thought possible turn out to be surprisingly practical and can greatly enhance the viewing experience. Our products improve the way facilities operate, increasing efficiency, immediacy, and flexibility. We strive to understand our clients' production processes from end to end. When you can change live air with the click of a mouse, you better make sure that your software is intuitive and uncluttered. Many of our systems are even designed to work with touch-screens. Putting live data on the air requires expertise in all kinds of data feeds, from web poll results (Tally to Air), to chat servers and email (Email To Air), all the way to full-blown real-time financial data feeds (AirPlot). We support many industry standard protocols, and can even help you design a custom feed for your application. We offer paint, animation, and compositing software and systems for the next-generation graphics department. Graphics departments and post-production houses love our software because it was designed by broadcast professionals for broadcast professionals. Check out our Content Creation application suite.
