Compix ConverG1 HD Feeds Rutgers Scarlet
Knights Stats, Scores, and Graphics to Giant New HD Video
Scoreboard
Compix, a developer of professional character generators (CGs),
announced that its ConverG1 HD was installed by Rutgers, The
State University of New Jersey, as part of a recent expansion
of the Rutgers University football stadium.
Incorporated into the stadium's HD video infrastructure upgrade,
the Compix CG feeds HD text and graphics to a new 38-foot-high
and 112-foot-wide Daktronics video scoreboard that is among
the largest at any NCAA football stadium.
The ConverG1 HD is designed for the video professional looking
for a broadcast level of performance for graphics and effects.
The system includes a 4-RU chassis, outputting graphics in
either SD-SDI or HD-SDI, as required. An SD/HD-SDI built-in
downstream keyer enables HD and digital overlays, and the
unit's SD/HD-SDI output can easily be configured upstream
of the switcher.

Through the Compix GenCG software, the ConverG1 HD offers
users a selection of standard rolls, crawls, and more than
260 transition effects, as well as a user-definable clock/timer.
An integrated scheduler suite, direct import animation software,
and stock fonts and libraries aid in smooth, speedy design.
The Compix system is installed in the native 1080i HD video
control room newly integrated into the stadium press box along
with an Echolab Overture HD switcher and Click Effects
CrossFire and Flashback systems for graphics and instant replays.
On game days, control room staff uses the Compix system to
put full-page graphics and player information on the Daktronics
video board along with updates from other NCAA football games.
