Vaddio, who manufactures PTZ cameras, specialty camera control systems and professional USB peripherals for the audiovisual, videoconference and broadcast marketplaces, exhibits a number of their products, including operator controlled camera systems and an AV Bridge, at the G&G Technologies Broadcasters Show in Saddle Brook, New Jersey, Wednesday, May 8, 2013.

The AV Bridge provides integrators the ability to integrate soft codecs such as Skype, Cisco Jabber, Microsoft Lync and many others into their traditional AV designs. It also provides the digital USB gateway to allow the integration of PRO audio and video equipment into any PC software application.

Based on UVC/UAC USB standards, no special USB drivers need to be installed, and as a result, it works seamlessly with any software application running on any operating system that supports USB 2.0 devices. Whether you want to do a Skype video call or need to set up lecture capture using Panopto’s software lecture application, the AV Bridge provides the USB connection to your AV system. Want to record or stream a meeting? Use the recording and streaming software of your choice – and AV Bridge will connect the audio and video sources.

The AV Bridge can support switchable balanced or unbalanced audio – and switchable HDMI, RGBHV, SD or HD component video inputs. Video inputs can be up or down converted as required. Outputs include USB 2.0 with HD UVC/UAC device support - or an Ethernet network interface for both IP control and streaming, supporting RTSP and HLS streaming clients (IP streaming capabilties will be added in 2013.)

The AV Bridge makes it simple to encode, capture and stream your AV content through a variety of PC applications or directly to the network. You now have a true digital gateway to capture, record and stream those legacy analog solutions.

*Streaming capabilties will be added in 2013.
