Are you tired of crowded on-set monitors and the lack of control while reviewing footage on location? Teradek has the solution for you. Introducing Serv, a game-changing iOS monitoring solution that will make your life easier and enhance your final footage.

With only four frames of delay, Serv aims to streamline resources, safety, and set management by allowing crew members and directors to conveniently review footage on their phones. This innovative product broadcasts HD images over WiFi to iPhones and iPads, eliminating the need for renting expensive monitors.

The app required to run Serv is called VUer:

For multi-camera productions, the VUer app can support up to 4 live video feeds from any combination of Serv and Cube devices. Each feed maintains the same 4-frame latency and allows independent use of VUer’s toolset, giving you fine control over the information displayed in each feed.

Additionally, Serv includes a frame grab and compare feature, enabling you to review shots and shot compositions for script supervisors, makeup artists, and producers from location to location.

Features:

• Built-in histogram
• false color
• focus peaking
• waveform monitor
• vectorscope
• support for up to 4 live video feeds
