The solution is based on RT Software’s proven tOG-Sports telestration system, enhanced with a giant U-Touch screen and a set of graphics templates built specifically for the Euro 2012. There is plenty of flexibility in the graphics look & feel and included in the price is customisation of the templates into your style.
Ease of use has been made a priority, with particular attention paid to the data required for a comprehensive analysis of the tournament. To this end we have partnered with Opta to offer a “one stop shop” integrated package. The Opta data-feed will automatically populate all required data fields thus reducing the graphics operator workload significantly – in fact this is effectively an automated system.
The graphics provided will cover all aspects of the tournament such as group tables, team and player statistical analysis, fixtures and results and much, much more (see Included Graphics for a full listing). As the solution includes a tOG Sports Pro licence, two important things are possible:
- Match clips and live presenter telestration is possible on the big screen in the studio.
- An operator can use the system off line to create analysis clips like this.
Video Clip Support
Crucial for a great football show of course – and we give you plenty of well thought out options as to how they can be used. From a workflow perspective they can reside with the VT Operator on the EVS or K2 video server, or they can be loaded onto the local hard disk of the PC we supply.
From a presenter’s perspective it could not be better. Browse thumbnails on the touchscreen; play them out with full shuttle style control – and even use the built in analysis tools to tell the full story. No matter where the clips reside, they are part of the show.
What’s included?
Everything – All you need to get a fully customised touch screen extravaganza on air for the Euros. That means all the hardware, a comprehensive set of graphics, customisation and the Opta data to drive them along with the services to make it look great and work smoothly. There is even a tOG Sports Pro licence so you can also use the system to create great looking analysis clips.
Total Flexibility
We appreciate one size does not always fit all, so this package can be tailored to meet any specific requirements you may have. Bigger screen, iPad control, and specific graphics we have not included. Whatever you want, RT Software can deliver.
