Leading Industry Transformation with the Power of AI
Harmonic is amping up its award-winning VOS360 solutions with cutting-edge AI innovations that leverage both in-house advancements and strategic partnerships.
- Broadcasters and service providers can now unlock new monetization opportunities with Harmonic’s AI-enhanced VOS360 Ad SaaS solution. Leveraging AI, the solution automatically detects ad breaks and inserts SCTE-35 markers in live content, empowering service providers to monetize source content without ad markers. The solution better monetizes high- and low-action moments in a game by automatically triggering in-stream advertising.
- Transforming live sports streaming experiences, the VOS360 solutions now offer a range of new features, including automated subtitles powered by speech-to-text AI, AI-driven sports clipping for real-time highlight creation, and automated translation with voice cloning or over-dubbing in any language. These innovations enhance fan engagement and deliver a more immersive viewing experience.
“AI has undoubtedly emerged as one of the key transformational forces shaping the future of the video industry — from delivering state-of-the-art viewer experiences to unlocking new ad revenues. Streaming providers and broadcasters need to embrace AI to stay ahead in an evolving industry landscape,” said Orit Kahana, vice president, SaaS product management at Harmonic. “The latest AI enhancements to our VOS360 solutions offer a host of benefits and are fully orchestrated within a single, tested and qualified solution, making it easier, faster and more cost-efficient for our customers to embrace innovation.”
