Broadcasters and news agencies from 40 countries used LiveU IP-video gear to provide real-time, round-the-clock coverage of the recent UK election. The company's field units, cloud production and distribution solutions enabled reporting from hundreds of polling stations and other locations across the country. LiveU's solutions were instrumental in covering key election spots, with the broadcasters prioritizing high-profile constituencies with the most impactful election counts, the company said.
Nearly 900 LiveU field encoders (including the multi-cam LU800 and compact LU300S) were deployed by over 180 LiveU customers over the 48-hour period (July 3-5) complemented by the LU-Smart smartphone app. Around 18,000 live sessions were recorded, totaling over 5,000 hours, with over 10.5 TB of live transmissions.
