Our IP connectivity technology can seamlessly extend video, audio, and metadata workflows across the internet, transforming network challenges into remote experiences.
Discover why NDI is more than just a solution for LAN.
Automatic discoverability of senders and receivers minimizes setup time, and variable bitrate delivers the best quality as network conditions change.
Maintains all features when connected over WAN: bidirectional streams, alpha channel support, KVM support, PTZ control, and much more.
Handles a wide range of resolutions, up to UHD with 10+ bit HDR support, and popular efficient codecs like H.264 (AVC) and H.265 (HEVC).
Supports unlimited PCM channels or 255 channels for Opus, multiplexed into a single stream for channel alignment.
Supports an extensible XML-based format that allows the inclusion of diverse metadata types without rigid parsing rules.
USE CASES
Whether you’re in remote productions, education, corporate collaboration, or any modern AV application, NDI-based workflows empower you to extend your reach and boost remote participation over wide-area networks.
In modern hybrid production workflows, where the cloud has become a central hub for operations, NDI is used inside the cloud to facilitate monitoring and control.
Broadcast producers can manage multiple high-quality, low-latency streams within the cloud environment, enabling efficient oversight and interactive post-production workflows while leveraging the strengths of multiple protocols.
NDI makes it easier than ever for teams spread across multiple offices and time zones to collaborate and enhance the production value of corporate meetings, remote training sessions, and virtual conferences.
Adding hundreds of remote participants, more cameras, and even broadcast-quality graphics is now within the reach of any team setting up corporate multimedia events.
Imagine a modern classroom where educators and students connect effortlessly—whether they’re in the same building or participating from home.
NDI is compatible with all major collaboration platforms and facilitates remote connections with personal devices. Teachers can share presentations, video lectures, and live interactive sessions with crystal-clear quality, fostering an engaging, real-time learning environment.
With NDI, it’s easier than ever to bring remote participants into livestreams, as well as integrate dynamic graphics and interactive elements on the fly.
This allows streamers to host live discussions, conduct multi-angle video interviews, and overlay real-time animations or on-screen graphics—all of which enhance viewer experience and elevate production quality.
NDI Tools and hardware products bring production value and creative flexibility to online town halls, public briefings, and inter-departmental meetings with reliable, high-definition streams, ensuring transparency and real-time communication, even when participants are located across the country.
Retailers and service providers can harness NDI for virtual product demos, interactive Q&A sessions, and live customer support events.
High-quality, low-latency video builds trust and engagement, making it easier to showcase products and engage with customers in a modern digital storefront.
Healthcare providers can offer real-time consultations, remote diagnostics, and interactive patient education sessions using NDI.
With the ability to transmit high-quality video streams and easily connect patient personal video devices, medical professionals can conduct secure remote appointments that are both informative and reassuring.
