High Quality H.265 Live Mobile Video Streaming
Ideal for news gathering and remote sports production, the Smart-telecaster Zao was the world’s first mobile H.265 HEVC hardware encoder and enables full HD live video mobile transmission of live events from a remote location to anywhere in the world, with a simple unit attached to the camera. The Zao is made in Japan and features the high quality craftsmanship that Japanese products are known for. Easy to use, high quality, reliable, low latency.
RASCOW Technology for Optimized Mobile Communications
The Zao allows up to 6 external USB modems to be bonded together to form a single connection via 3G, 4G, LTE, WiMax, Inmarsat BGAN, WiFi, and/or wired LAN. Our proprietary bonding technology called RASCOW (Real-time Auto-Speed Control based on Waterway model) automatically balances the load between various network base stations during live broadcasting. This allows unprecedented stability in image transmission, even under network congestion or weak network signals.
Lightweight, Small, and Long Battery Life
Due to its lightweight (900g) and portability, the Zao can be carried either on a small backpack or can be mounted on a camera and connect either via HD-SDI or HDMI to the camera. The power consumption of Zao is maximum 28Wh. Depending on the capacity of battery, a 100Wh battery for example, it can be broadcast live for approximately four hours. The Zao can support up to 2 standard external (VLock) batteries giving a total of 8 hours of continual use.
