With hundreds of Hippotizer V4 units joining the herd of award winning Hippotizer V3’s, Green Hippo and B&K Braun get ready to showcase the latest innovations in media server technology.

After an incredible February with a single Hippotizer Taiga unit driving the 87th Academy Awards, Green Hippo is bringing Taiga to Prolight + Sound Frankfurt, where it will be driving the entire stand along with its smaller brothers used for private demos on the B&K stand during the show.

The impressive stand will also feature Boreal which recently set sail on the largest cruise ship designed for the British holiday market. The vessel, officially named by the Queen, carries 3 600 passengers with the Hippotizer Boreal controlling video playback in the ships theatre.

Three Green Hippo staff will be on site with Sascha Werner, media and LED specialist, and B&K Braun delivering millions of pixels all over the stand. The stand, all displayed on Hippotizer’s Visualiser will give users the chance to see how the B&K exhibition space concept translates into the real world, with real-time adjustments made to visual elements on stand.

Visitors to the stand will be introduced to a number of different Hippotizer variants, tailored at delivering 3D mapping, visualisation and the world renowned media manipulation capabilities for any event, size and budget.

Also at the show, Sean Westgate, technical director for Green Hippo, will deliver his talk on “4K+ in the real world’. After a great reception at ISE 2015 and over 100 people in attendance, Westgate will address the difficulties that are present for end users who wish to step into the 4K+ world. From the lack of available 4K content, to the difficulties in getting video players and processors which are capable of handling 4K. We of course will then present our award winning solutions with the Aviary Video Tools range.
