Customer Testimonial

TOYOTA ALVARK TOKYO Co., Ltd.

A Unified Production Platform Connecting Audio, Lighting, and Video

The pivotal moment came when we received a proposal for the KAIROS live production platform. The ability to control multiple systems with a single button really appealed to us. KAIROS is a powerful, multi-platform solution that unifies all production elements, including audio, lighting, video and even PTZ cameras on one platform. It also connects seamlessly to the center-hung LED displays and ribbon boards. Audio, lighting and visuals, which previously required separate teams, can now be managed with programmed cues for instant triggering at the push of a button. Such a high level of automation and efficiency is a significant advantage.

Reaction Time to Industry
Needs and Demands

We certainly recognize Panasonic Connect's commitment to growing the platform. We've seen Panasonic's dedication to want to continue to grow the platform so that when a need or a want arises from the industry, we actually see that reaction time and that evolve into something that's functioning.
It's that quick turnaround time which I think is unique for the broadcast industry due to the tech that's been traditionally deployed. This type of flexibility hasn't necessarily been available, so we're really excited to be able to implement that with the Fieldhouse.
