UK Broadcasters use LiveU for General Election Coverage
Case Study - 7 May 2010
With every political party in the UK busy campaigning and travelling between constituencies several times a day by coach, train and air, the ability to be live on air quickly- often from unscheduled locations- has never been more important for a 24-hour rolling news channels.
Working with Garland Partners, two of the UK's main broadcasters have taken full advantage of the benefits of the LiveU 3G mobile ENG uplink solution. LiveU provides broadcast-quality links making it easy to go live within a few minutes with complete mobility and reliability.
"Gets you to places you just can't go with a TV truck"
"We used it again overnight last night with David Cameron's marathon bus tour. It was the only way of doing live 2-ways, as they were constantly travelling"
"Opens your eyes to all sorts of possibilities, it's been great as a first response vehicle"
These are just a few of the many positive comments received from users and production teams in the broadcast industry.
LiveU lets you get more teams out in the field to supplement existing fleets of SNG broadcast vehicles and flyaways, or provides a content feed that otherwise may not be possible due to limited resourcing or for cost reasons. All you need is a reporter and one cameraman with the LiveU transmitter in its backpack. Using existing 3G mobile data channels, high-quality (>2Mbps) pictures can be sent straight back to the studio, where they can be downlinked in to a LiveU-enabled server and fed straight in to the broadcast chain.
Bring live content to your TV channel and web portals quickly and easily, and at a sensible price.
