The systems supplied by the company were placed at the very heart of the Direct CCTV solution for the Airwaves Ducati team. The robust Dennard 2060 outdoor dome was positioned to keep an eye on the pit area with images from this and other cameras streamed back via Mel Secure’s wireless connection to a rack-mounted Digital Sprite 2. Images were then available to view using NetVu ObserVer software, not only to ensure the security of the team’s valuable equipment but also for entertainment purposes – in this case via a large plasma screen positioned in the hospitality area. Here, a KBS3A remote digital keyboard was fitted so that the new Digital Sprite 2 could be controlled remotely with no loss in functionality.
Chris Percy, managing director at Direct CCTV, commented: “We were delighted with the assistance provided by Dedicated Micros in helping us to make sure that everything was in place for the first race. The feedback from the team and particularly the guests in hospitality, who were able to watch events in the pits at Brands Hatch, was extremely positive.”
