Shotoku facilitates HD production for Swiss Radio Television

Shotoku Broadcast Systems has just completed the commissioning of a control system and robotic cameras at the Swiss Radio and Television (SRF) production center in Zurich.

TPC, a subsidiary of Swiss Radio and Television (SRF) responsible for technology and production for television and multimedia, has carried out an interesting automation and robotics project at the SRF facilities in Zurich (Switzerland) in which three TG-18 pan/tilt remotes have been integrated as well as a complete control with Resilient Network Interface (RNI) option.

The configuration also incorporates two Ti-11 I-Height lifting pedestals, a pair of TR-8T touchscreen control systems, plus a TR-8B basic control panel.

Jens Schulz, project manager at TPC, commented that "Shotoku's systems work very well. They integrate perfectly with our new facilities with several high-definition studios, allowing us with a flexible, high-quality production environment."

James Eddershaw, Sales Director at Shotoku, added: “By selecting multiple control systems from our range, TPC has been able to easily adapt system operation to suit specific production conditions and studio setups.”
