Overview

Overview

The Flanders Scientific BoxIO Advanced Color Management Device is an advanced color management tool designed for both color critical post production environments and demanding on set color management applications. BoxIO supports both 3D and 1D LUTs for unparalleled image control. BoxIO can be used for calibration, on set grading, and other LUT based operations. From accurate calibration to on set grading all BoxIO models are well suited to the task and work with your favorite professional applications including CalMAN and LightSpace.

Applications and Features:

Calibration
Have a display that doesn't offer built-in 3D LUT based calibration? BoxIO interfaces directly with the industry's leading calibration software solutions for simple and accurate 3D LUT based display alignment.

On Set Grading & Frame Capture
BoxIO supports real-time LUT updates over IP allowing for direct integration with popular on set color management tools like QTAKE and Pomfort's LiveGrade Pro. BoxIO also supports frame capture over IP allowing select applications to use this feature to generate thumbnails and/or reference images for later use.

Connectivity
BoxIO comes equipped with 2 x 3Gbps SDI inputs, 2 x clean SDI loop throughs, 2 processed SDI outputs, and 1 mini-DisplayPort output. The DisplayPort output mirrors the processed SDI output allowing for LUT application on DP as well as SDI outputs. The DP output is compatible with HDMI and DVI devices using an inexpensive passive connector. Clean loop through SDI outputs mean BoxIO isn't limited to being an "end of chain" device. All inputs and outputs offer full 12bit signal support. Communicate with external devices over LAN, USB, and WiFi. BoxIO features a 4pin mini-XLR connector supporting 12V to 18V power and draws less than 10W of power.

4K Signal Support
1 BoxIO: Up to 4K@30P 4:2:2
2 BoxIO: Up to 4K@60P 4:2:2; Up to 4K@30P 4:4:4

Single-Channel Mode
BoxIO can operate in a single-channel mode with a switched input. This allows a single-channel at a time to be outputted on the two processed SDI outputs so that your signal can be distributed to two locations from a single BoxIO. In single-channel mode BoxIO supports your choice of 17x17x17 or 33x33x33 size 3D LUTs.

Dual-Channel Mode: Two LUT Boxes In One
BoxIO can apply two separate LUTs to two independent signals at the same time essentially operating as two LUT boxes in a single device. In dual-channel mode each channel supports 17x17x17 size 3D LUTs.
