Orad Hi-Tec Systems Limited will unveil  the GBox 2U, its new entry level, cost-effective video graphics rendering platform at IBC2008. The GBox 2U is a compact 2U rack-mountable box, which includes both the control PC and the rendering platform in a single physical box.

Similarly to Orad's high-end HDVG platform, the GBox 2U platform supports Orad's Maestro HD/SD character generator, and 3DPlay channel branding and auto promo solutions. Additionally, the GBox 2U will be bundled with Orad's 3Designer authoring software, offering a complete graphic preparation suite for graphic designers and artists.

Taking advantage of Orad's high-end graphics rendering engine, this new turnkey solution enables the playout of real-time 3-D graphics, and of multiple video files supporting all commonly used formats such as AVI, QuickTime (with alpha), DV, DVC25, and MPEG. GBox 2U also supports one SD/HD video insertion, enabling the user to map a video onto any object in the graphic scene.

Mr. Avi Sharir, CEO and President of Orad: "We are continuously striving to offer our customers new state-of-the-art solutions and platforms that meet all types of requirements and budgets. Based on the same technology, GBox 2U is a welcome addition to the HDVG rendering platform family."
