Chyron has recently announced the release of CAMIO 5.0. It is the company’s MOS-driven graphics asset management platform renewed. Chyron has rearchitected CAMIO to integrate all its components — LUCI, HubDrive, Render Engine, iSQ, and others — for easier installation, management, and maintenance, whether in an on-premises, cloud, or hybrid configuration.

“Because we focused on designing this release around users’ workflows, CAMIO 5.0 is an easy-to-use system that helps users create and bring to air high-quality graphics quickly and accurately,” said Jim Martinolich, product manager at Chyron. “While we’ve made substantial enhancements and added many new features, many users will simply experience these changes through greater ease of use, control, and efficiency in getting the job done right.”

Producers and reporters simply fulfill graphics templates with text, images, or clips, and graphics templates are then added directly to stories in the NRCS MOS rundown. Using the same controls within the CAMIO interface, users can easily harness the ability of the NRCS rundown to drive multiple Lyric or PRIME graphics engines for lower thirds, OTS, full screens, video walls, and virtual and augmented reality elements.

New features include an improved design with a “dark look” option for the home page, asset manager, and LUCI plug-in, as well as other UI improvements that optimize screen real estate within MOS environments and deliver a streamlined navigational menu structure. To enhance the recently introduced large preview option, Chyron has integrated animated previews into LUCI. CAMIO’s ability to identify dependent objects expands asset management functionality and helps to protect assets from accidental deletion.
