NBC Sports has selected Chyron to provide systems for live, on-air graphics with integrated data as well as systems to drive graphics displays to studio video walls for its production of the XXIV Olympic Winter Games.
   

NBC Sports will utilize Chyron LyricX CG systems for live production in Beijing at figure skating and extreme sports venues, as well as in remote broadcast trucks based in NBC Sports’ International Broadcast Center in Stamford, Connecticut. Additionally, operators based in Stamford will use the Chyron PRIME Live Platform to drive content for studio video walls in Beijing.

“We again are eager to continue our partnership with Chyron for the Winter Olympics,” said Darryl Jefferson, VP of Post Operations and Digital Workflow, NBC Sports & Olympics. “Use of the LyricX platform and further expansion of the PRIME Live Platform for studio and visual displays gives us continued flexibility and allow our visual artists to really stretch the creative boundaries during the Games.”

“NBC Sports’ production of these events are highly visual, engaging and inspiring to viewers,” said Ayhan Rob Ulke, Vice President of Strategic Accounts, Chyron. “Chyron is proud to partner to bring world-class, data-enhanced graphics to augment the viewing experience.”
