Early Adopters of IP-Based Streaming Protocol
For BirdDog, it all started with a cool name and a novel idea: Make a product that can interface existing video equipment with a new IP-based streaming video protocol called NDI®, the innovative network device interface technology from Newtek. Being one of the first adopters of NDI technology, BirdDog now is a staple among professional broadcasters.
RC PTZ Cameras Featuring Full NDI
At the forefront of NDI development, BirdDog now is expanding the feature set of their signature products. Additionally, BirdDog has added remote controlled PTZ cameras that feature full NDI and innovative designs. Although BirdDog did not create NDI, they certainly perfected the user experience.
BirdDog | Cloud NDI Remote Delivery and Management Software
BirdDog | Cloud 10 changes everything. Now you can expand outside your local network to distribute your NDI content to anywhere in the world. Utilizing SRT, Cloud has 128/256 bit AES encryption all way through the pipeline so you can send over the public internet with total peace of mind that your streams are secure. SRT video transport protocol also ensures reliable streams even over lossy networks.
BirdDog NDI Multiview Pro
A scalable and powerful NDI Multiviewer that automatically creates the least number of video windows needed while maintaining a 16×9 aspect ratio. Each receiving end point can configure its own custom Multiviewer. The NDI for the Multivewer is sent at lower bandwidth NDI to allow more video windows than you can with full bandwidth NDI. There are controls to set to 720p or 1080p resolutions and you can even throttle the NDI if desired.
BirdDog VideoWall: Complex Video Walls Made Easy
BirdDog's new VideoWall is a simple—yet powerful—way to display NDI® and NDI® HX video files across multiple screens to create video walls. Simply choose either a 2×2 or 3×3 screen layout, assign your PLAY or SDM to each screen, and choose the NDI® stream.
