Dataton WatchOut version 5 is already making waves in the international audio-visual marketplace where it has  received several industry prizes and accolades, including the Media Server product category in the Commercial Integrator Awards; WatchOut was also recognized with an award for Best Show Control Product at the Infocomm/Rental and Staging New Product Awards.

Dataton WatchOut is a multi-display production and playback system that allows to orchestrate stills, animations, graphics, video, sound and live feeds in a single show across multiple display areas, soft-edge or scattered. It’s fully scalable, software-based and requires no proprietary hardware.

New features of Dataton WatchOut 5 include:

• 3D effects and stage preview – Prominent among the upgraded feature set is a new 3D Effects and Stage Preview option. WatchOut version 5 allows to position and rotate all media objects in 3D space. The preview can be rotated to view the stage from the most appropriate vantage point, all while staying true to the simplicity and ease of use of WatchOut.
• Stereoscopic playback – Still on the 3D theme, version 5 is also the first iteration of WatchOut to offer seamless Stereoscopic Playback.
• Interactivity – Version 5 also allows shows driven by WatchOut to be opened up to more interaction, allowing users to not only position, rotate and move all media objects in 3D, but also for these tools to be used interactively. WatchOut understands virtually any kind of device or external system, allowing you to connect sensors and control sources – like iPads – directly to on-screen elements such as images, video, live feeds and more.
• Multiple outputs – keeping pace with the latest developments in computer and graphics hardware, this Version 5 now offers support for multi-head output cards, meaning that up to six displays can now be driven off one suitably equipped computer, all using a single WatchOut license.

As well as exhibiting at the show, AVT and Dataton will be hosting seminars throughout the show for partners in China to give them the latest, hands on product information.
