The company’s Newsroom Graphics solution is now compatible with web-based NRCS applications such as Octopus, Etere and SNEWS
NAB 2024, booth SL4097. Brainstorm, leading manufacturer of real-time 3D graphics and virtual studio solutions, announces a major update for Neuron, the company’s MOS-compatible, template-based system that integrates graphics creation and management into most common newsroom, continuity, and broadcast traffic operation environments, allowing users to integrate high-quality pre-defined 3D graphics to their workflow without the constant input from the Graphics Department. This major update includes full compatibility with HTML5, opening the door to make Neuron compatible with any web based NRCS applications.
The HTML5 support has been developed on top of the existing integrations of Neuron with common NRCS such as AP ENPS, Avid iNews, Octopus, Annova, Marsys, VSN News or Pebble Beach. Being now compatible with web-based NRCS, Brainstorm announces at NAB the integration with Octopus Newsroom, Etere Nunzio and SNEWS Arion, the first incorporations to a growing list of HTML5-compatible NRCS systems which can now benefit from Neuron’s powerful real-time 3D graphics management.
Thanks to the HTML5 integration, Etere and SNEWS users can seamlessly send and receive real-time Neuron graphics for the rundown through MOS objects. Users can preview the graphics from the same interface before adding them to the rundown. Moreover, real-time updates ensure they can easily navigate the rundown and access all linked graphics. Now, users can effortlessly integrate high-quality pre-defined 3D graphics into their workflow.
“The integration of SNEWS Arion with Neuron signifies a revolution in production processes for media companies, allowing for more fluid creation and distribution of graphic content, access to high-quality visuals, and flexibility for customization. This partnership has enabled the delivery of high-quality content quickly and efficiently, making it one of the best integrations on the market, adaptable to the client’s workflow and raising the standard of quality of the user experience”, says Juliano Milanez, Head of New Business at SNEWS Newsroom Solutions
As this feature goes in line with the industry trends for NRCS, existing partners such as Octopus are already using HTML5 to integrate Neuron with their most advanced and updated product line, resulting in more opportunities for the end users to decide which technology to adopt, while opening the door to further workflow flexibility. This integration enables Octopus users to effortlessly send and receive graphics for their rundowns through MOS objects, significantly enhancing the efficiency and quality of news production. Within the Octopus interface, users can now preview graphics before incorporating them into the rundown, ensuring a seamless and error-free workflow. Real-time updates further facilitate navigation through the rundown seamlessly while accessing all linked graphics instantly.
“As Octopus Newsroom, we’re thrilled with this integration with Brainstorm’s Neuron, leveraging its advanced HTML5-based MOS plugin support to empower broadcasters to get on-air faster with a comprehensive, fully scalable range of solutions. This integration not only streamlines operations but also ensures seamless access to high-quality, real-time 3D graphics within our interface, marking a significant step forward in simplifying newsroom workflows,” says Milan Varga, Product Manager at Octopus Newsroom.
“The latest updates to our Neuron product line gives it a new technology edge the market was asking for. The HTML integration, along with additional features, expand the potential user base to new segments of the market and opens the door to integrations with other NRCS.” says David Moldes, Brainstorm’s Product Manager.
