Introducing the Roland V-160HD Streaming Video Switcher
By Jennifer P
The Roland V-160HD Streaming Video Switcher is the first hybrid event solution that empowers single operators to seamlessly produce event presentations for in-person and online attendees. Hybrid events require custom content displays with the ability to tailor the experience to each audience. The V-160HD allows in-person audience members to see a presentation on in-room displays, while online attendees view the presenter and their content layered on the screen simultaneously. Meanwhile, traditional automation tools—like presets, macros, and robotic PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera control are unified with a sequencer—allowing operators to multi-task with confidence, reducing missed cues, poor audio, or delayed video switching issues.
