Kindai University, one of the largest universities in western Japan, has installed a number of Blackmagic Design products in its esports facility. The new setup is one of the best esports facilities among schools in Japan and is built around a Blackmagic Design workflow, including ATEM Constellation 8K and ATEM Mini Extreme ISO live production switchers, Web Presenter HD streaming solution, Smart Videohub 40x40 routers, HyperDeck Studio HD Plus broadcast decks and many other Blackmagic Design products.

Esports is very popular, but only a few Japanese universities have esports facilities. Kindai University decided to create an esports facility and installed streaming, audio and lighting equipment as well as gaming PCs. The university made sure that students could use the same gear that professionals use in an actual esports workflow when choosing equipment for its facility.

The new facility has numerous gaming PCs connected to a game server, allowing students to freely enjoy esports. When an event is being streamed, there are many cameras and gaming PCs in use, so the number of inputs needed is very high. All of the input signals from various sources are sent to an ATEM Constellation 8K via Smart Videohub 40x40 router and are then switched using an ATEM 2 M/E Advanced Panel 20.
