supports automation Intelligent Interface commands so
control from your automation system is a simple task.

Static and Animated Logos
Logo Matic supports an unlimited number of static and
animated logos. Animated logos are flipbook animations
that are played back in real-time. Flipbook animations
are easy to create using inexpensive software tools that
are commonly used in graphics departments. Once
imported, logos can be placed anywhere on the screen
and can be combined with static graphic elements as
well. When complete, the logo with all of its setup
parameters can be stored on the hard disk for future
recall.

Text and Tickers
What sets Logo Matic apart from other systems is the ability to add text and automated tickers to your on air logos. Text elements can be used in conjunction with other graphics or by themselves. Tickers provide a way to automatically update onscreen text with data coming into Logo Matic from either Ethernet or RS232 connections. Time and temperature are just two examples of how this function could be used. Why tie up your expensive CG when Logo Matic can do it all.

Background Combiner and Restyling Tools
Your graphics artist will appreciate the ability to create 32-bit transparent logos and/or backgrounds, using the standard video capture feature. Once images are captured they are available on the network so they can be shared with other workstations in the Graphics department. Software tools are provided to convert pairs of 24bit graphics files and create valid 32bit logos. Any SDI source connected to the Logo Matic video input can provide the fill and key required. The Background Combiner will match them together to create a 32 bit graphics file ready to be used as a logo or background. The Restyling Tools complement the combiner with graphics processing, painting and editing capability.

Superb Picture Quality
The architecture of Logo Matic is an uncompressed 4:2:2:4 signal path. Playback of all logos is done using a high performance graphics card. Picture and key outputs are provided to feed your switcher directly or the graphics card provides a 10 bit linear keyer so logos can be inserted downstream from your switcher.
