Disney | ABC Television Group and Disney Research has selected Redrock Microsystems to license certain Disney technology and patents, and will work with them to bring resulting products to market.
“Disney has a rich heritage of developing technology to enhance the tools and systems of tomorrow,” said Anthony Accardo, Director, Research & Development, Disney ABC Television Group. “We look forward to working with Redrock to develop and launch technologies that we think will add tremendous value for productions industry-wide.”
Under terms of the agreement, Disney has licensed technology and patents to Redrock aimed at improving mobilized video production. Redrock is currently integrating Disney and Redrock technologies to release generally available products. These products target small crews, solo operators, independent productions, and field broadcast applications including news, sports, and event coverage.
“When Disney approached us, we immediately recognized how wide ranging this technology is for improving field production,” said James Hurd, President, Redrock Micro. “We’ve come to appreciate the innovation Disney brings to the table, and this relationship makes perfect sense: marrying Disney’s advanced technology with Redrock Micro’s proven product designs and delivery.”
