Inside a Next-Gen University Broadcast Studio | HPU XR Tech Tour

Описание: Step inside a next-generation university broadcast studio.

In this tech tour, Travis Aultman from SES Integration is joined by Nick Blair to walk through the newly renovated TV studio at High Point University’s Nido R. Qubein School of Communication—a space intentionally designed to reflect the technologies and workflows used in modern broadcast, live production, and virtual production environments.

This studio was built to support a wide range of academic and creative use cases, including:

Broadcast journalism and live newscasts
Classroom instruction and hands-on student training
XR, virtual, and augmented reality production
Creative student and faculty projects

Throughout the tour, Travis and Nick break down the audio, video, lighting, XR, control, and network infrastructure that powers the studio, while also discussing the educational goals, design challenges, and technical decisions that shaped the final result.

In this tech tour, you’ll see:
✔ A large-format, high-resolution LED video wall
✔ A 4K multi-camera broadcast workflow
✔ XR / virtual production capabilities in an academic environment
✔ Professional lighting, power, and control systems
✔ Infrastructure designed to prepare students for real-world media careers

The result is a state-of-the-art communications studio that gives students direct experience with industry-leading broadcast and XR tools, while empowering faculty to teach at the forefront of media technology.
