The new range has three series of teleprompters, including Explorer, Pioneer, and Navigator.
By redesigning its entire prompter line, the manufacturer of teleprompter systems Autocue has placed speed, simplicity, and sustainability at the forefront of its design ethos.
The new range includes prompting hardware and software that offers modern solutions for broadcasters, independent production companies; AV/events and houses of worship; or corporate and educational facilities.
The Autocue range now comprises three distinct series of teleprompters, each with unique features and advantages. The Explorer Series provides comprehensive prompting packages with simple HDMI teleprompters and professional prompting software suitable for beginners and smaller installations. The Pioneer Series offers broadcast-standard prompting monitors and live editing software with the newsroom and PowerPoint integration designed to support everything from live events to local news. The Navigator Series provides executive and conference prompter packages for public speakers.
Commenting on the development, Philip Dalgoutte, Product Manager of Autocue, said: “Every Autocue product is designed with our ‘3S’ principles in mind: Speed, Simplicity, and Sustainability. With a tool-less setup, minimal parts, robust components, and intuitive software, the new range is easy to use and customised for individual productions. And backward compatibility with our previous Autocue Starter, Professional, and Master Series, ensures users can integrate with existing hardware and controllers, making the transition easy and cost-effective.”
The prompters are built to last using sustainable design principles, with sturdy and recyclable metal housings, locally sourced shared components, and easy serviceability.
With the Explorer Series, users may breeze through the setup and speed up production with minimal parts that adjust for cameras and lenses – no tools needed. For users new to prompting, Autocue’s new video education series provides tips on how to prompt like a pro.
The customisable Pioneer Series offers complete compatibility for live and as-live productions. The prompter hardware is designed with full adjustability to make setting up the prompter faster and easier and includes a selection of video inputs including SDI. Pioneer Software is icon-based with familiar layouts for easy reference and includes integration with popular MOS newsroom systems, as well as NDI output for seamless IP integration.
The Navigator Series is designed to be simple and easy to use for public speaking, with conference stands that give clear visibility of the script and familiar software that anyone can use. The Navigator Conference Packages come in two options, Navigator for simple presentations in smaller indoor venues and Navigator Plus, designed for presentations anywhere. Both options include cables, software, and a USB controller to ensure a prompt start right out of the box.
The new Autocue teleprompter range will be available from the end of April and will be on a show for the first time at NAB Show 2023.
