“Over the last few months the newest module for our digital platform, which includes eye pattern tests, has been flying off the shelf,” said Steve Nunney, director of Hamlet. “We know that the recession has hit many of our customers hard, so we are doing our part to help with a special NAB deal, which bundles eye pattern testing, and 3Gb/s capability, at no extra cost.”

The Hamlet digital test and measurement platform delivers absolute accuracy from its bespoke platform, which is common across the DigiScope 9000 on-screen display device, the MonitorScope 9000 conventional test monitor incorporating a TFT display, and the highly successful MicroFlex hand portable unit. The modular platform allows the user to tailor functionality to the exact needs of the job, including analogue and digital audio and video, SD and HD (including 3Gb/s) and test signal generation. They are widely used worldwide by broadcasters, production companies and service delivery providers.

The complete Hamlet range of test and measurement devices and quality control software systems can be seen at NAB, Las Vegas, Booth SU7507, 12-15 April 2010.

Notes to editors:

Currently celebrating its 24th anniversary in 2010, Hamlet Video International Limited is a British company dedicated to the design, manufacture and supply of innovative, high quality and cost-effective test, measurement, monitoring and quality control equipment to the video and broadcast industries worldwide.

Hamlet has completely eliminated CRTs from its instruments, thereby removing the need for routine display recalibration and thus reducing significantly the cost of ownership of a precision instrument. With its latest devices using an all-digital internal platform, Hamlet has moved towards a calibrated-for-life test and measurement system.

Hamlet’s vectorscopes and waveform monitors either use an internal precision LCD display or provide an output to either a video or a computer monitor, which can be routed to the operator’s convenience. In either case the graticules are generated digitally within the device, so provides a continually reliable and accurate reference.

The company also develops test and measurement software to be used in conjunction with broadcast systems running on standard computers for the analysis of base band or file based signals. Finally, Hamlet manufactures digitally-stable signal generators as a companion to its measurement devices.
