LOS ANGELES, April 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- StreamCaster 4K-HEVC, manufactured by Silvus Technologies, is a recipient of the NewBay Best of Show Award, presented at the 2018 NAB Show by TV Technology.
NewBay's Best of Show Awards are evaluated by a panel of engineers and industry experts, and are selected based on innovation, feature set, cost efficiency and performance in serving the industry.
Winners receive an award for display and will be featured in TV Technology, the digital television authority, serving the broadcast, cable, production, post production, business and new media markets.
All nominated products are featured in the special Best of Show Awards Program Guide, to be distributed in digital edition form to more than 100,000 readers of TV Technology, Digital Video, Video Edge, Government Video, Radio World, Radio magazine, Pro Sound News and Sound & Video Contractor after the convention.
The Streamcaster 4K-HEVC is a unique wireless camera system combining low latency HEVC 4K/UHD/HDR encoding and decoding with Silvus Technologies' unique StreamCaster wireless mesh technology, providing the operator with an unmatched set of capabilities and return-on-investment.
