Harris Corporation To Debut QuiC Software Family

Harris Corporation will unveil its next-generation family of file-based analysis solutions at upcoming shows in South Asia, the Middle East, and North America.

The QuiC software family will debut overseas at the BES EXPO 2012, taking place February 11-13 at the Pragati Maidan in New Delhi, India (Stand 101, Hall 12A); and CABSAT 2012, taking place February 28 to March 1 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre (Stand S3-A21, Sheikh Saeed Hall).  The products will debut in North America at the 2012 NAB Show, taking place April 14-18 at the Las Vegas Convention Center (Booth N2502).

According to Harris, the QuiC software minimizes the workload for video server operators in TV stations, network facilities, and new media operations.  The software features quality-control technology from Digimetrics, QuiC Pro for flexibility and scalability, QuiC Express for file analysis, and QuiC View for visual presentation of digital content.

“The increasing emphasis on file-based workflows in today’s demanding broadcast, production, and media operations creates a need for straightforward quality control processes,” said Harris Morris, president, Harris Broadcast Communications.  “These new tools provide fast, effective, and actionable results without false positives — allowing our customers to more effectively share, distribute, and monetize media assets across many workflows and delivery platforms.”

QuiC Pro and QuiC Express integrate into various operations or facilities, with test templates and a web-based user interface.  A web-service Application Programming Interface (API) enables communication with digital asset management systems and other workflow components.

QuiC Pro offers a flexible QC feature set that can be used after content editing, during automated ingest, for video transcoding, and archival transfers. QuiC software products support multiple media formats, various video and audio codecs, and many ancillary and metadata formats.
