What Is NDI?

What is NDI?

Network Device Interface (NDI) is a high-performance AV over IP standard that allows anyone to use real-time, ultra-low latency video on existing IP video networks. The NDI open protocol enables professionals to share video through a local area network (LAN) with video-compatible devices. With a single ethernet cable connection, professionals can merge all stages of production from start to finish. That way, all production tasks and processes will be united, so accomplishing a creative vision will be simple. With the NDI, users will also be able to connect any audio device as an NDI source with NDI’s Audio Direct tool. This adds audio over IP to NDI’s revolution.

What is NDI|HX3?

NDI|HX3 is an updated version of the HX2 standard. The difference is, HX3 provides better image quality and lower latency than HX2. NDI|HX3 also uses slightly more bandwidth than NDI|HX2, but the increase in bandwidth is not significant enough to be an issue. There are a limited amount of NDI|HX3 compliant devices due to a hardware limitation most NDI|HX2 compliant devices have. Overall, NDI|HX3 is the latest update to the standard and offers the best features.

Innovative Design

Available in either classic white or black finishes, the chassis of the VLOOP is designed to be as functional and attractive as its formidable feature set. The high-stability substructure provides a solid foundation for the precision lens delivering 4K resolution video at 60fps. Eliminating the need for bulky external accessories, the control arms feature distinctive built-in tally lights that illuminate either green or red with 360-degree visibility.

This camera supports SRT, enabling high-quality, low-latency video to be sent reliably over the internet.
