Calibre UK’s HQView520 is a top-of-the-line scaler/switcher/scan convertor designed to address the very latest trends in AV system design and integration.

The HQView520 switches, scales, scan-converts and edge-blends multiple images – also performs warp mapping so that those images can be projected onto curved screens.

The new 520 will also perform sub-pixel precise image alignment for stacked pairs of projectors used for 3D applications.

Like the other products in the HQView500 series, the 520 has a 3G-SDI input and output capability, as well as backwards compatibility with HD-SDI and SD-SDI formats.

The processor will accept a wide range of HD, SD and?computer inputs including DVI, HDMI, YPbPr/RGBS, VGA/RGBHV, S-Video, and Composite PAL, NTSC, and SECAM.

The unit is 1RU and in a stylish design.

Tim Brooksbank, Chairman, Calibre UK, says: “Curved-screen and 3D projection is now entering the mainstream and our new HQView520 has been designed to address these developments by giving the professional AV community an ‘all-in-one’ solution to their switching, scaling, edge blending, and warp-mapping needs – all without sacrificing the very high image quality for which Calibre products are rightly renowned.”
