Ross Video Introduces XPression Tessera A Multi-Display Real-Time Graphics Designer and Controller for Sport Venues and Studio Video Walls

Sunday, April 17^th, 2016 [Las Vegas, Nevada] – Today Ross Video announces a new addition to its comprehensive XPression line of real-time motion graphics systems, clip servers, workflow tools, and purpose-built software applications for news, elections, sports, entertainment, branding, touchscreen, social media, virtual sets and augmented reality – XPression Tessera.

XPression Tessera is a multi-display real-time graphics designer and controller for Sport Venues and Studio Video Walls. Tessera enables users to link together multiple XPression engines to create a scalable matrix of channels for seamless output of scenes across large or irregularly assembled display panels. Perfect for sports scoreboards, ribbon boards, and studio video walls, XPression Tessera’s resolution can scale just by adding more XPression engines or “Tessera nodes.”

Frame-accurate, non-tearing recall of graphics and clips across any or all nodes is made possible with XPression’s new Multi-Engine Sync technology. More importantly, XPression’s unlimited scene layering on output is preserved across Tessera nodes for incredibly dynamic animations and transitions.

The XPression Tessera Region Manager permits operators to divide scenes into regions and assign those regions to specific nodes. The XPression Tessera Node Manager allocates the XPression engines and channels to be used as render nodes. The XPression Project Server handles automatic one-click publishing of scene updates and resources to all nodes for ultimate efficiency.

“XPression Tessera is a one of the most exciting additions to the XPression family in a while,” said Brian Olson, Director of Marketing Product Management for XPression. “The ability to scale real-time graphic outputs to virtually any size or number of displays is a game changer. We’re no longer limited by the horsepower of a single graphics engine. Users can simply add more XPressions to scale up to larger and larger canvases.”

Whether driving large displays in sports venues or building studio video walls, XPression Tessera is the most powerful and cost-effective solution available today.
