Chyron Makes Workflow Efficient
April 13, 2010
Responding to the industry’s call to “do more with less,” Chyron is showing new products
and revamped technologies that improve performance and boost cost benefits.
“All our customers face the daily challenge of creating more content with ever-shrinking
resources,” said Michael Wellesley-Wesley, president and CEO of Chyron. “That means
traditional news organizations are going to have to make changes,” including adopting a
hyperlocal perspective on the 24-hour news cycle and forays into new areas like 3D.
Chyron has responded with a litany of choices that amount to a “5:1 improvement on
productivity and cost benefits,” Wellesley-Wesley said.
The new Quintette all-in-one workflow production and playout system offers integrated
electronic ordering, graphics asset management and collaborative cloud tools. Features
include 3D animation support, four channels of playout, and collaboration tools for sharing
stories, assets and templates.
New features are being unveiled for the HyperX3 graphics system, including integrated
3D support and a graphics-creation tool called Touch GraphX. Chyron is also previewing
enhancements for the AXIS cloud graphics platform, as well as launch new versions of the
LEX3 Graphics System and Channel Box2 platform.
