Forbidden Technologies launches Blackbird(R) Forte into Japan
with Tier 1 telecommunications operator
Forbidden Technologies plc (AIM: FBT), the developer and seller
of cloud video platform technology using its patented Blackbird
technology is pleased to announce a preliminary collaboration with
a leading Japanese telecommunications operator through its
partnership with Dragon Touch Systems Inc.
Blackbird will be utilised in a specific part of the telco
infrastructure to allow its B2B customers to edit and version
content in the cloud. The proxy is continually uploaded to the
Blackbird cloud and presented as growing files, where it is
accessible to reviewers and a team of editors for daily
collaboration. The team has the added advantage of speed, providing
viewing and remote capabilities, which Blackbird offers without the
bandwidth constraints.
This proxy-based cloud workflow offers enormous benefits of time
management, collaboration efficiencies and flexibility to producers
and broadcasters in the region.
Daisuke Matsuo, CEO at Dragon Touch Systems said, "Our customer
required a powerful cloud video platform solution to process high
resolution videos, and Forte's ability to support multiple
languages including Japanese, made it the perfect choice. I believe
Blackbird Forte will serve as a catalyst for change in a
traditional Japanese broadcast landscape".
Forbidden CEO Ian McDonough says, "We're delighted to announce
this new deal through our partner, Dragon Touch Systems in
Kanagawa, Japan. It represents a minor breakthrough in a major
market. The customer has recognised the power of the platform and
the ability to have a highly responsive workstation experience
while working in the cloud, thanks to the Blackbird codec".
