In this fifth and final installment of the BlueRiver applications blog series, we’ll look at how two Semtech products lines – Semtech’s BlueRiver® ASIC platform for Pro AV and SDVoE™, and broadcast Serial Digital Interface (SDI) – can enable a unique set of “SDI-over-IP” products and applications.

Throughout this blog series, we’ve looked at how Semtech’s BlueRiver® ASIC platform enables a broad range of Pro AV applications, and as the core chip technology that powers Software Defined Video over Ethernet (SDVoE™), is accelerating the adoption of AV-over-IP in the professional AV industry. (Read Parts 1, 2 and 3.) In part four of the BlueRiver applications for Pro AV blog series, we’re going to continue the theme around the lower power and reduced footprint of the BlueRiver ASIC solution, which makes it ideal for integration directly into end equipment, HDMI wall plates and Smart Display Modules, while also reducing equipment costs and the environmental footprint of the final AV system.

このブログシリーズの最初の2つのパートでは、Software Defined Video over Ethernet（SDVoE™）を支えるコアテクノロジーであるSemtechのBlueRiver®プラットフォームが、AV配信用の従来のマトリックススイッチをいかに置き換えるかを見てきました。完全統合型のUSB接続により、BlueRiverは、通常ではコントロールセンターやリモートデスクトップのアプリケーションに導入されるより高度なKVMスイッチングアプリケーションに対応しています。プロAV向けBlueRiverアプリケーションのブログシリーズの第3部では、BlueRiver ASICの強力な統合画像処理エンジンが、コスト効率の高いビデオウォールやマルチビューワーのアプリケーションを実現し、高価な専用機器の必要性を排除しながら、高性能で低レイテンシーのIPベースのAV配信システムを提供する方法について紹介します。

The BlueRiver® platform is Semtech’s award winning technology for AV-over-IP, which is one of the fastest growing segments in the Professional AV signal distribution market. As the core technology that powers Software Defined Video over Ethernet (SDVoE™), BlueRiver has been demonstrated to be the only AV-over-IP technology that can provide matrix switch-like performance, delivering pristine 4K resolution video with imperceptible latency, along with multichannel audio and control signals, such as USB, Infrared and Consumer Electronic Control, all over standard 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks using a common control Application Programming Interface (API).

今回は、プロ用AV向けのBlueRiverアプリケーションブログシリーズの第2回目として、従来のマトリックススイッチのトポロジーを使用するアプリケーションにおいて、SDVoE がいかにコスト効率が高く、機能豊富なAV-over-IPシステムを実現しているかを見ていきます。

Since its official launch in early 2020, the BlueRiver® ASIC has been the bedrock of all new product developments for Software Defined Video over Ethernet (SDVoE™). From standalone encoders and decoders, to HDMI wall plates, the ASIC has provided a lower power and cost effective platform from which our customers can expand their product portfolios. With full integration of USB, designed for connecting and routing USB devices such as keyboards, mouse and track balls, BlueRiver sets a new benchmark for KVM over IP applications.

When the COVID-19 pandemic struck in early 2020, there was a general feeling that it would all be over in six months. Few expected the global shutdown of live events and professional sports. Concert tours were postponed and sports arenas stood empty as the effects of the pandemic rolled on into the year. I had bought tickets to see the My Chemical Romance reunion tour in September 2020, for my son Max’s 18^th birthday. But of course, it’s been postponed (twice) and it looks like I’ll be taking him for his 20^th birthday instead! Pro sports are starting to open up in many countries, and people like me are itching to go to concerts to see our favorite bands, comedians and theater productions, and be immersed in the collective cheers and applause of the audience again. In the immortal words of the late, great Freddie Mercury, “the show must go on!”

90年代初頭から半ばにかけてDolby Laboratoriesで働き始めて以来、私はよく「オーディオ専門家」と呼ばれてきました。しかし実際には、キャリアの大半をビデオ技術に費やしてきました。最初はシリアルデジタルインターフェース（SDI）、最近ではSemtechの受賞歴のある BlueRiver® technology for Pro AVによって実現するSoftware Defined Video over Ethernet（SDVoE™）に取り組んでいます。それでも、私はオーディオのあらゆることに関して関心があり、製品ラインのオーディオ機能を強調することに重点を置いています。こうした要素は見過ごされがちです。

Semtech's BlueRiver and Audio Over IP

The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for higher education establishments to adopt hybrid styles of learning, providing the benefits of in-room learning to remote students. The Audio Visual (AV) experience is a major component of this hybrid approach, combined with the flexibility of high performance networks, to deliver the most stimulating and immersive experience for both teaching staff and students. As the world recovers and students go back to school, there may still be the need to reduce class sizes for social distancing purposes, and therefore, “extend” the teaching experience beyond the single classroom, with many students still participating remotely, either from different rooms or from home.
