Simplify broadcast control and HMI workflows at IBC 2026 with Densitron
As broadcast production becomes increasingly connected, software-defined and distributed, manufacturers and technology providers face a growing challenge: how do you give operators intuitive, reliable control without adding more complexity to the systems they use?
From production galleries and master control rooms to OB vehicles and remote production environments, operators need immediate access to the information and controls that matter. At the same time, broadcast equipment manufacturers need flexible HMI technologies that can integrate with evolving workflows, shorten development cycles and deliver the reliability required for live production.
At IBC 2026 in Amsterdam, 11–14 September, the Densitron team will be meeting with broadcast manufacturers, technology partners and integrators to explore how the latest developments in broadcast HMI, tactile control, embedded displays and software-defined control can help address these challenges.
And while Densitron will not have a dedicated booth this year, our technology will be visible across the show, integrated into solutions on selected customer and partner booths.
How is broadcast HMI technology evolving?
Modern broadcast workflows increasingly bring together multiple devices, applications and data sources. As these environments become more sophisticated, the operator interface becomes increasingly important.
The challenge is not simply adding more controls. It is giving operators the right information and control at the right time, while making complex systems easier to operate.
Densitron combines display, touch, tactile controls, embedded computing and software to help broadcast technology manufacturers develop interfaces designed around the way operators actually work.
At IBC 2026, we will be discussing how these technologies can help manufacturers and integrators:
Simplify complex broadcast control workflows.
Combine touch and tactile interaction within intuitive operator interfaces.
Bring multiple devices and functions into more unified control environments.
Modernise legacy broadcast control surfaces.
Reduce the engineering involved in developing customised HMI solutions.
Create flexible interfaces that can evolve alongside software-defined workflows.
From embedded displays to complete broadcast control solutions
There is no single approach to broadcast HMI. Some manufacturers need a high-performance display or touchscreen integrated into their own equipment. Others need an embedded computing platform, a customised control surface or a more complete control solution.
Densitron supports broadcast projects at each level, with technologies including TFT, OLED and AMOLED displays, touchscreens, embedded computing, tactile and haptic controls, rack-mounted control surfaces and ProDeck desktop control panels.
Our engineering teams can also work alongside customers from initial concept and interface design through integration, prototyping and production, helping simplify the development of highly specialised broadcast equipment.
Simplifying broadcast workflows with IDS
As production environments become more connected, operators increasingly need to control and monitor multiple systems without moving between numerous separate interfaces.
Densitron's Intelligent Display System (IDS) provides a flexible control and display platform that can bring information, devices and operational functions together within a centralised interface.
For broadcast environments, this can help simplify workflows and give operators clearer, more immediate access to the systems they need to monitor and control.
Combined with Densitron's touch, tactile and display technologies, IDS enables manufacturers and integrators to create control environments tailored to specific broadcast workflows rather than forcing operators to adapt to fragmented systems.
See Densitron technology across IBC 2026
This year, you will not find Densitron on a single exhibition stand. Instead, our technology will be integrated into customer and partner solutions across the IBC show floor, demonstrating how our display, touch and control technologies work as part of real-world broadcast systems. It is an opportunity to see our technology where it matters most: integrated into the products and workflows it helps enable.
Look out for Densitron technology on partner stands including Polecam (Hall 12, 12.A37), demonstrating AutoPod+ powered by IDS and ProDeck for responsive, centralised touchscreen control; Bolin (Hall 10, 10.B42), integrating its PTZ cameras with IDS on Densitron's 2RU control panel; Telycam (Hall 11, 11.A03), showing PTZ camera control via IDS and ProDeck from a single interface; and Atos (Hall 8, 8.C93), running its BNCS platform on ProDeck.
Techex (Hall 2, 2.B45) will demonstrate IDS integrating with tx darwin, its modular media processing platform, and Bridge Technologies (Hall 1, 1.A71) will bring IDS together with Densitron's Remora and Lamps in a mini studio environment, showing how actions and workflows can be triggered directly from its monitoring platform.
Our team will also be at IBC throughout the show, meeting with customers, partners and broadcast manufacturers to discuss upcoming projects and HMI requirements.
Meet Densitron at IBC 2026
