ScanVision Technology Relies On
Doremi Labs V1 Disk Recorders

May 31, 2001 -Doremi Labs' popular V1 family of Digital Video Disk Recorders (VDR) is part of the breakthrough ScanVision instant replay system that debuted during game 3 of the Stanley Cup series on the ABC Television Network. Termed for this event the "ABC Panasonic ScanVision" is a 360-degree multi-angle slow motion replay system that provides a "Matrix" style rotating effect that was done in 270 degree format for this show. The game featured the Colorado Avalanche and the New Jersey Devils.

Thirty two V1d video disk recorders were used for ScanVision. During the game each V1d recorded the video feed from one of 32 video cameras mounted on robotic arms installed around the arena. A sophisticated software interface managed the master camera used to follow the action on the field and the remaining 31 cameras used to create the multi-angle recording.

During the slow motion replay the operator has complete control of the angle of view achieved by accessing each V1d's recording. The V1d's slow motion, instant locate and play capability are a vital piece of the ScanVision technology. The 32 V1d machines and the Scan Vision system are located in a high-tech mobile truck operated by Core Digital Technologies based in Phoenix, Arizona.

The V1d is Doremi Labs' affordable disk recorder with analog and digital video inputs and outputs. The V1d can be used as a drop-in replacement for any video tape recorder. With its VTR-like front panel controls and matching video and audio connectors the V1d makes it easy to upgrade to the speed and quality of disk recorders. Doremi Labs' V1 video disk recorders are available in JPEG or MPEG2 compression standards or uncompressed.
