As 4K/8K UHD technology becomes a pivotal development direction in the global broadcast industry, we are experiencing a significant upgrade wave. Capitalizing on this trend, Konvision has successfully won multiple UHD channel construction projects with leading broadcasters.
Leveraging its technical expertise, Konvision has won the UHD TV production OB van project for Al Kass Sports Channel, Qatar Media Corporation (QMC), Qatar's national broadcaster. A total of 130 units of 4K monitors will be delivered in two batches, deployed across multiple 4K UHD OB trucks – advancing prosperity along the Belt and Road initiative.
Qatar Media Corporation (QMC), Qatar's official public service broadcaster, is committed to deliver diversified media services. The end-user for this project is AlKass Sports Channel, a QMC subsidiary specializing in comprehensive sports event coverage with extensive local and international event rights, making it a cornerstone of Qatar's sports media landscape.
The adopted monitor lineup comprises 55-inch, 24-inch and 18.4-inch 4K HDR monitors (models KUM-5510H, KUM-2410H and KUM-1810D). All units integrate a 12-bit video signal processing, delivering UHD resolution with wide color gamut, HDR including HLG&PQ, high-precision and ultra-low-latency display performance. Each monitor is further equipped with professional tools including 4K HDR to HD SDR down-conversion, HDR area and pixel measure.
4K UHD Monitoring
Konvision 4K HDR monitors are equipped with 2x 12G-SDI, 2x 3G-SDI, and 1x HDMI input/output. Supporting both single-link and quad-link 4K workflows, they utilize 3840×2160 resolution LCD panels for exceptionally detailed image.
HDR
Supporting HDR EOTF standards including HLG (1.03/1.11/1.16/1.20/1.27/1.33) and ST2084 PQ /(softroll), Konvision monitors deliver deeper contrast, smoother color transitions, and more lifelike images. To ensure HDR video complies with production standards, the integrated HDR Area function intelligently analyzes the HDR area over 203 Nits in the imageand display as a percentage.
BT.2020 Wide Color Gamut
Supporting DCI-P3 and BT.2020 color spaces, Konvision monitors enable automatic color space and EOTF curve recognition and matching, covering a broader spectrum of visible colors. For precise color reproduction, 3D LUT color calibration technology is employed, supported by industry-leading calibration tools (K10-A, CR300, CR100) to deliver authentic color reproduction.
4K HDR to HD SDR Down-Conversion
UHD channel roll-out is an incremental process, making simultaneous HDR / SDR production essential. Konvision's 4K HDR monitors feature an integrated 4K HDR to HD SDR down-conversion, via a single-link SDI interface, delivers 4K to HD, HDR to SDR and BT.2020 to BT.709 conversions. This meets the current broadcast requirement for seamless 4K HDR/HD SDR production.
