Jan 26, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) --
Vitec, a company focused on digital video solutions, announced the addition of mobile streaming capabilities to the Optibase Full Motion Video (FMV) Streaming system.
In a release on Jan. 23, Vitec said the military-grade architecture delivers standard definition and high definition IPTV content, in real time, to iOS and Android phones and tablets over 3G, HSPA+, 4G LTE, WiFi and WiMAX networks, and integrates with existing IP video environments.
Effective dissemination of video is becoming a must-have tool for ground troops, providing combat situational awareness in remote locations. But military IT and video groups are struggling to keep pace with constantly changing network bandwidth requirements and the range of mobile device platforms, operating systems and playback capabilities used by recipients in various sites.
"Today's mobile devices offer versatility and computational power that can revolutionize the battlefield. With FMVMS, we are able to enhance our tactical situational awareness solutions and allow our customers to disseminate critical video and metadata information faster and to more recipients, even in remote locations and while on the move," said Eli Garten, Vice President of Optibase Product Management at Vitec. "With this new technology we are able to address the growing need for a tactical mobile delivery solution that offers superb video quality in wide range of bit rates, designed from the ground up to fit military network topologies and trade-off between local and disadvantaged users. Our ability to dynamically and automatically detect the type of mobile devices in use makes FMVMS flexible, easy to deploy and easy to manage - attributes that will assist military organizations to quickly and cost-effectively deploy powerful new tools and services and make an immediate impact with increased video delivery capabilities."
Vitec is a provider of digital video products that support media solutions for Broadcast, Corporate, Education, Government, Industrial, Medical, Military, and Telco customers. Vitec is headquartered in Paris, France, with worldwide R&D, Sales, and System Integration offices.
