Overview

The best time to identify faults in a system is while they are still potential faults rather than immediate problems.  If something does fail, it’s best to be able to identify the source and nature of the fault rapidly and easily.  This is particularly true in the digital domain, where poor quality can lead rapidly to a complete loss of pictures.

Building on their experience of modern broadcast monitoring requirements Snell has developed Hyperion, an entirely new way to monitor the integrity of content that passes through every stage of the broadcast infrastructure. Designed on the belief that opinion-based human intelligence is a more effective way to validate content quality than simply monitoring the technical parameters of a video signal, Hyperion provides a set of intuitive processes that enable an in depth analysis of the video data. For the first time, a broadcast monitoring system evaluates the content of a television signal rather than measure the absolute technical properties of the signal carrying that content.  Broadcasters working with Hyperion realize more sophisticated multichannel content monitoring and significant new protections when airing premium, high-value television programs.

Included with Hyperion are additional tools to enable remote monitoring over IP via video thumbnails, time code logging for accurate event tracking and content identification from source to output using UMID metadata.

In addition to Hyperion the IQ modular range also contains a series of standard monitoring products for local system monitoring - click here to visit the Control & Monitoring product range.
