About The Customer
Industrial Media is a leading independent production company that creates compelling content for multiple platforms. Its subsidiary, The Intellectual Property Corporation (IPC), is an Emmy-winning television production company. In the three years since it opened its doors, IPC has produced a range of content for networks, cable companies, SVOD, and digital platforms, including Netflix, Amazon, A&E, Showtime, and Oxygen. The company is known for producing critically acclaimed shows like Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath and Active Shooter. Industrial Media is dedicated to telling real human stories with integrity and works with any networks or platforms that want to tell those stories with them.
The Challenge
Industrial Media and its Emmy-winning television production company, The Intellectual Property Corporation (IPC), were looking to expand their collaborative workflows by adding a new production hub in New York City. The goal was to collaborate remotely with directors, producers, and editors throughout the country. Until then, their editors worked mostly on-site in Los Angeles and Atlanta. The challenge was to create an environment where someone working 3,000 miles away could be treated as though they were just down the hall. Industrial Media needed a solution that would allow them to work wherever they found talented editors, filmmakers, and story producers. Additionally, they had a tight six-week schedule to open their new production facility.
The Solution
To meet their needs, Industrial Media turned to Avid partner, T2 Computing, to build a technology infrastructure that would enable the company to meet the needs of its creative teams and keep pace with changing technology. They built an Avid post-production environment with 20 Media Composer | Ultimate editing workstations and an Avid NEXIS | E4 software-defined storage system. Avid NEXIS offers real-time editorial collaboration and high scalability and performance enabling Industrial Media to share and access media assets with anyone, anywhere. Avid NEXIS is the preferred storage solution for collaborative workflows. It supports both Avid and Adobe, enables them to keep all media in the same ecosystem, provides fast access, and expands to meet future requirements.

Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.
