USA - The growth of the Alliance for IP Media Solutions (AIMS) continues apace, as a further seven international companies, at the forefront of digital video production and delivery, opt for membership. Avid, Dejero, Ikegami, IntoPIX, Matrox, NEC and TVU Networks have swelled the ranks of the alliance in the last few weeks.

Avid led the revolution in audio and video editing over 25 years ago. Its software-based, non-linear editing system is a television and video industry standard, providing the tools needed to create, manage, store, distribute, and monetize content.

"The smooth transition to IP is going to depend on customer confidence in the interoperability of equipment in the production and distribution chain," Tim Claman, vice president of platform and solutions at Avid. "At Avid we're fully committed to supporting standardization efforts that facilitate this interoperability, and AIMS is making a major impact in facilitating and accelerating that process."

Dejero simplifies the remote acquisition, cloud management, and multiscreen distribution of professional live video over IP. The Ontario company's LIVE+ platform is trusted by broadcasters, media organizations and mobile production companies around the globe.

Ikegami is a world-leading manufacturer of professional and broadcast television equipment, including television broadcast camera systems, monitors, video production and processing systems, and OB vehicles.

Belgian based intoPIX offers the most compact, flexible and advanced image and video compression solutions dedicated to cinema, broadcast, production and post, pro-AV, video transmission and storage applications. "In joining AIMS, IntoPIX wants to contribute to the broadcasters' transition towards a cost-effective and interoperable Live IP-based ecosystem, both in-studio and in remote production environments," says CTO Gael Rouvroy.

Founded in 1976, Montreal headquartered Matrox has over 40 years of experience designing software and hardware solutions for graphics, video, and imaging/machine vision applications.

NEC Corporation is a leading global end-to-end broadcasting solutions provider, known for its excellent design and manufacturing technology, and with over 80 years of accumulated experience in the broadcast industry.

TVU Networks is a market leader and pioneer in IP-based video technology solutions that help transform broadcasters' SDI-based operations - including acquisition, transmission, routing, distribution and management - to an IP-based infrastructure.

AIMS chairman Michael Cronk comments, "The rapid and accelerating expansion of AIMS membership is embracing of specialist companies and large corporations. All share the commitment to the highest standards of technological development and an open standards approach to an IP based future. We sincerely welcome them all."
