The rest of Dream Chip’s range of cameras is also on display at the event, including their AtomOne mini zoom.
Dream Chip, developers in the field of miniaturised cameras, will be attending IBC 2022 to display a range of significant upgrades which have been made to their AtomOne range, all of which the company said further enhance how the camera range can be deployed.
Front and centre will be a demonstration of the upgrades made to their AtomOne SSM500 – a camera that achieves HD quality shooting speeds of 500fps in a robust camera body measuring just 189mm x 60mm x 60mm. The IBC demonstration of the camera will focus on the way that the addition of IP control, along with the integration of Broadcast Solutions’ meshLINK, now positions the SSM500 as the most flexible, agile and adaptable miniaturised camera on the market, stated Dream Chip.
Broadcast Solutions’ meshLINK represents a full-duplex IP-based wireless system that incorporates a remarkable array of functionalities – including ultra-low latency UHD HEVC encoding, RCP, telemetry, intercom, return video and prompter. The system also offers functions like adaptive encoding, Total Recall of all connectivity parameters and, the recently developed prediction tool for coverage calculation based on 3D maps. Common applications of the AtomOne SSM500 often see it deployed in remote broadcast environments where there is heavy reliance on 5G, with many different broadcasters and devices competing for signal and bandwidth. The addition of meshLINK technology heightens the reliability of the connection made, and when combined with the unobtrusive, lightweight, discrete nature of the camera, allows this tiny device to be deployed in fully remote contexts – including shoulder and bike-mounted situations.
The rest of Dream Chip’s range of cameras will also be on display – including their AtomOne mini zoom, which weighs just 286g. Dream Chip will be seeking to present to attendees the flexibility that is offered within the range, with a focus on wide-ranging third-party integration, whether that be for lenses (B-mount and C-mount), RCP (CyanView, JLC Cooper, Skaarhoj and Antelope, to name but a few) or accessories (including ND filters, PTZ mounts and waterproof housings) all of which can be leveraged to further enhance the creative applications in which the camera can be deployed.
Outside of sports deployment, the Dream Chip range has the potential for diverse applications in the field of ProAV (including PTZ cameras in worship and education), as well as cinematographic film and TV production.
Speaking of their attendance at IBC 2022, Christian Kühn – Sales & Product Marketing Manager for Dream Chip – said: “The AtomOne series of cameras incorporate such a remarkable range of technologies and standards – facilitating the highest quality of shooting -including the possibility for 4K, 500fps and HDR in some of the smallest sized cameras on the market. But these metrics are easy enough to communicate online and in marketing literature. The pleasure of attending a show like IBC is that we can show what these technological specifications mean in terms of creative potential for producers and broadcasters. The flexibility built into the whole range means that the only limit to their application is the imagination of producers and cinematographers; we give them the tools to create a broadcast that shocks, surprises, excites and inspires”.
