As a result of the acquisition, Coiron’s CEO Carlos Vasquez will become part of Ross Video’s graphics division as Technical Product Manager for the Ross Virtual Solutions group.
Ross Video has acquired US-based technology company Coiron to develop a suite of popular applications for use with the XPression family of real-time motion graphics systems.
XPression Telestrate, XPression Trackless Studio, and XPression Touch Factory aim to empower customers to create astounding video productions using XPression at both the national and local level. The trio of applications can be used for sports analysis, virtual studio production, interactive touch screen video presentations, respectively.
Commenting on the acquisition, Carlos Vasquez, CEO of Coiron, said: “After years of collaboration, which has evolved from producing real-time graphics and data integration projects for Ross customers, to building and releasing live production products together, we are now moving into the next phase of our relationship: becoming an integral part of their awesome team. We are really excited to join a prestigious company with years of continued growth like Ross Video. We’re looking forward to contributing as much as we can to deliver new, outstanding solutions for our global customers, especially in the Virtual Solutions product line.”
David Ross, CEO of Ross Video, remarked: “I’ve always been impressed with Carlos’ brilliance, integrity, and the fact that he’s an all-around nice guy. Coiron is a perfect fit for Ross”.
Bas Saleh, Ross Video’s VP of Graphics, noted: “For many years Coiron has done an outstanding job bringing cost-effective, reliable products and workflows to our market. This acquisition will ensure we can continue down that path together and we’re certain the sum of our combined efforts will be even greater than the individual parts. Having someone as talented as Carlos further strengthen our team is a true gift as well.”
