The system had to be able to pass embedded data and audio and process elements such as metadata and 3G video signals. It needed an expandable multiviewer to replace a quad-split setup. It all had to fit into the space constraints of a multicam sitcom production. And it had to be flexible enough to expand upon it well into the future.
