"Making The News Across The UK" — BBC Equips Regional Facilities With Three Kalypso Systems"We are delighted to have secured such a significant order for the Kalypso," said Tim Thorsteinson, president of the Grass Valley Group. "With major orders already booked across Europe and the Middle East, the product is now shipping across the region, and we feel very confident about its future prospects." The London and Tunbridge Wells facilities should be on air with the new two mix-effects (M/E) Kalypso solutions by Spring 2001 with the Leeds site scheduled to follow in 2002. At all three sites, the Kalypso solutions will be used to help produce nightly news bulletins in addition to a broad range of other news programs throughout the day. The Kalypso Video Production Center family acts as the hub of a teleproduction environment, combining industry-leading switching and powerful M/E capabilities with an open, networked architecture that offers a precedent setting degree of operational efficiency. With 80 inputs (video or key) it offers fingertip control of a number of previously off-board functions to streamline a broadcaster's workflow from greater M/E capabilities to a programmable clean-feed system.
