Heynen works for innovators
NOS & Nieuwsuur verslaan de Amerikaanse presidentiële verkiezingen met LiveU
Terwijl super storm Sandy aan de Amerikaanse oostkust flink wat schade heeft aangericht, zijn ook de presidentiële verkiezingen nog steeds in volle gang. Eerder deze maand heeft Tom Kleijn van Nieuwsuur al een roadtrip door diverse staten gemaakt. De achtergrondrapportages van deze trip werden daarbij afgewisseld met live kruisgesprekken tussen Tom en Hilversum. Een van deze gesprekken vond zelfs plaats vanuit een rijdende auto. Voor al deze live gesprekken werd gebruik gemaakt van LiveU, een portable live video-over-cellular uplink solution die is geleverd door Heynen. Eelco Bosch van Rosenthal is de vaste Amerika correspondent voor de NOS. Sinds oktober doet hij in diverse NOS Journaals regelmatig live verslag van de verkiezingsstrijd tussen Obama en Romney. Ook hierbij wordt gebruik gemaakt van een door Heynen geleverde LiveU LU70 backpack. De afgelopen dagen was hij in Atlantic City voor meer verslagen maar dan voornamelijk over super storm Sandy. De komende week zal hij weer diverse live bijdrages gaan leveren vanuit Washington in de aanloop naar de aanstaande verkiezingen op 6 november. Na de eerste uitzending van Tom’s roadtrip is de oplossing zelfs tijdens NCRV’s Lunch! Op Radio 1 besproken. In het Media Forum liet Bert van de Veer weten nog even aan een Ivo Niehe truc te hebben gedacht totdat eindredacteur Ed Ribbink van Nieuwsuur uitleg kwam geven over LiveU. Naast Eelco en Tom zal ook Wouter Zwart de komende week met een LiveU verslag doen van de verkiezingen voor NOS. Volg alle drie de verslaggevers via Nieuwsuur en de diverse NOS Journaals.

No More Boundaries | NOMOBO B.V. uses first Dutch LU40 to
stream live video from anywhere in the World!
During this years’ IBC in Amsterdam, LiveU announced a complete new product range of live video
uplink solutions with the LU light series that contains smartphone-, tablet- and laptop applications.
Earlier this year the LU70 was already introduced by LiveU as the successor of the popular LU60. This
introduction was accompanied by the completely new and simplified, but nevertheless very effective,
LU40.
When No More Boundaries | NOMOBO B.V. was looking for a reliable, broadcast quality solution that
is able to handle harsh network conditions to support their wordwide live video streaming services,
they tested the LU40 during Ultra Music Dance Festival from Seoul, Korea - together with LiveU’s
Dutch Distributor Heynen. After this extensive test No More Boundaries | NOMOBO B.V. concluded
that the LU40 was exactly what they are looking for, praising the high quality video transmissions that
are made possible thanks to LiveU’s adaptive bit rate technology and unique error correction
mechanisms.
This all led NOMOBO into being the first Dutch company to adapt the LU40 platform. And with
success, as it already gave them the possibility to support some prestigious projects including the Vrij
Festival event during Amsterdam Dance Event where acts as Junkie XL, Pretty Lights, Yonder Boy
and Eelke Kleijn were streamed live to the Samsung Galaxy branded YouTube channel.
In addition to this NOMOBO is also responsible for the live video streams that the Dutch soccer
federation (KNVB) publishes on YouTube and Ustream. But with the LU40, NOMOBO can also
accommodate interviews, (product) presentations, seminars, concerts, sport and music events and
many of these are already planned for the upcoming months.
No More Boundaries | NOMOBO B.V. is a young innovative company that is founded and managed by
Constantijn van Duren, Jeroen Bos en Robert Buisman. This team of experienced producers has a
huge amount of expertise and considerable reputation in the field of online television and broadcast
production. In addition to services such as video production, media distribution and channel
development the NOMOBO team are true experts in creating high quality live streaming events for
organizations and brands.
Heynen works as distributor and system integrator with first class vendors of professional media

LiveU techniek
LiveU is a pioneer in portable video-over-cellular technology, addressing all demands for full HD or SD quality,
resiliency, availability, mobility and sub-second latency in a highly innovative technological solution. Our core
technology is based on cutting-edge adaptive algorithms which combine cellular communications and video
encoding.
The LiveU solution bonds up to 14 cellular (3G/4G – LTE/WiMAX) modems over multiple carriers, as well as
multiple LAN and even BGAN satellite connections. This creates a reliable, broadband video uplink pipe over
multiple narrow-band pipes. Using any camera, the fully-integrated self-powered compact unit provides video

LiveU was the first company to integrate 4G LTE links into its cellular-bonding solutions. Since September 2010,
LiveU LTE solutions have been deployed in several commercial LTE networks, such as in Scandinavia and the

or inability to go live, LiveU's multi-link solutions allow broadcasters and online video professionals to enjoy the
benefits of both the 4G and 3G worlds.
High Quality Video Transmission
LiveU has developed several advanced proprietary algorithms that enable resilient high quality video transmission
over the ever-fluctuating multiple cellular networks. Among these are:
• Adaptive Bit Rate (ABR) of the H.264 video encoder.
This mechanism adapts the video encoding rate continuously according to the changing network conditions.
Taking into considerations the continuous real-time measurements of the performance of every available link, the
user’s resolution and latency requirements, cellular channel behavior and other parameters, ABR reduces or
increases the H.264 video encoding rate. The result: a real time video rate adaptation mechanism that optimizes
the encoding process on-the-fly.
• Error handling mechanisms:
In wireless and cellular environments, packet loss and errors are common inherent phenomena. LiveU has been
developing proprietary error-handling mechanisms specifically adapted to these phenomena and to the unique
paradigm of aggregation of multiple links. Adaptive and predictive Forward Error Correction (FEC), Error
Concealment and Error Recovery mechanisms at the video application level complement each other and are
employed as needed for each specific operation conditions.
LiveU provides sub-second latency for interviews and highly resilient profiles for live transmission from fast-
moving vehicles (cars, trains, motorcycles, boats, and even helicopters). We also offer high-speed File Transfer
mode (FTP) over the aggregated bandwidth.
Unique Benefits:
More Content for Less Money: More teams can report from the field without Satellite/ Microwave trucks.
All it takes is a single reporter and a backpack in the field.
High Accessibility and Availability: Anyone can transmit at broadcast quality within minutes of turning on
the unit, from anywhere.
