Despite the widespread disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, AIMS continues its work to help members of the broadcast and Pro AV industries better understand the standards and technologies driving successful adoption of IP.
One of these efforts, offered in concert with the Video Services Forum (VSF), is The Summer Sessions — Media Over IP Education. Launched in May, with a new presentation released weekly, the Summer Sessions offer a fresh perspective on media-over-IP workflows, with a strong emphasis on use cases, and explores technologies supporting the migration to IP.
So far, presentations have provided an overview of IP media technology, explained results and methodologies for recent JT-NM Tested activities, offered a case study on NMOS, and introduced IPMX. A schedule of upcoming presentations and more information about archived sessions are online at http://www.ipshowcase.org/summersessions2020/ .
AIMS also continues its work to educate broadcasters, AV professionals, and technology vendors about IPMX (Internet Protocol Media Experience), the alliance’s proposed set of open standards and specifications for the carriage of both compressed and uncompressed video, audio, and data over IP networks.
IPMX was the focus of our presence at InfoComm 2020 Connected, which was held virtually earlier this month, and AIMS will continue to participate in the virtual events and experiences that the industry is using to replace the traditional trade show.
