Rey Juan Carlos University once again places its trust in Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales for the expansion of its TV virtual studio
The new project, carried out by TSA, enhances the TV Virtual Studio at URJC’s Madrid-Vicálvaro Campus with robotic cameras, wireless transmission systems, and customised virtual sets.
Telefónica Servicios Audiovisuales (TSA) has executed the expansion of the Rey Juan Carlos University (URJC) Virtual Television Studio, providing state-of-the-art equipment that boosts the audiovisual production capabilities of the Faculty of Communication Sciences on campus.
This new plan complements TSA‘s previous project at the URJC‘s Vicálvaro campus, where a complete virtual system was integrated alongside top-tier audiovisual equipment. This new phase strengthens the partnership between TSA and URJC to enhance the faculty’s educational resources, equipping the studio with greater technological capacity in line with current demands in audiovisual production.
A project that represents a significant advance in the integration of cutting-edge educational technology within the university sphere and positions URJC as a pioneering institution in audiovisual communication training, providing its students with a learning environment equipped with the tools and support needed to develop their potential in the current audiovisual industry.
Among the most notable advancements is the installation of a high-performance robotic crane camera equipped with an absolute positioning system. This ensures precise movements, essential for capturing complex shots with high realism. This system, which includes remote control capabilities, has been meticulously integrated with the rest of the virtual studio equipment, enhancing its functionality for innovative audiovisual productions.
Another major improvement is the new 5G wireless connection system, enabling real-time cable-free transmission. This offers greater flexibility for live coverage projects and events, aligning the studio with current audiovisual production standards and providing students with a practical learning environment equipped with cutting-edge technology.
A comprehensive lighting solution optimises the virtual environment, including bi-colour LED projectors and softlight panels. This equipment ensures precise and adaptable lighting, ideal for chroma key backgrounds and advanced visual effects, expanding creative possibilities within the virtual space.
The expansion also includes two new virtual sets designed to maximise the studio’s space and enhance the production of academic and professional content. High-performance SSD storage units have also been added to facilitate the transfer and handling of large data volumes, especially crucial for high-resolution and real-time workflows.
This new project reflects the commitment of both entities to provide students and industry professionals with advanced tools in virtual production technology, reinforcing the university’s role as a benchmark in academic innovation.
