Blackmagic Design announced today that Japan’s NHK Media Technology created an 8K60p video media player, "HyperCUBE MHP-8000,” using four Blackmagic HyperDeck Studio 12G.
NHK Media Technology is an affiliate of Japan Broadcasting Corporation (NHK), specializing in broadcasting technology as well as programming and sales. The organization has built a strong capacity in developing non-broadcast technology, including broadcast design and operations.
"Currently, 8K players on the market are very expensive. I've heard there simply is not the demand for it yet and there are complex ways to utilize the technology. I wanted to create an 8K player at a lower price to counteract these issues and hopefully get this technology out to the broader market,"said Kazuki Naito, manager of Business Development Division in the NHK Media Technology’s Broadcast Engineering Department. "Our company has been originally focusing on video synchronization technology. Using that technology and the combination of the 4K media players that are already available on the market, we were able to create one that could play up to 8K30P. After this first step, we were just about to develop a new one that could play up to 8K60P, and that's exactly when HyperDeck Studio 12G was released."
