SpectraCal portable 4K video test pattern generator
Called the VideoForge 4K, the affordable new device draws on SpectraCal’s long experience with the original VideoForge, the first software-extensible digital pattern generator and currently the largest selling test pattern generator in the professional video market.
The VideoForge 4K outputs all current 4K formats via Quad-Link SDI, and also supports lower-resolution patterns via Dual-Link SDI, Single-Link SDI, and HDMI.
SpectraCal is also releasing a 2K SDI/HDMI model, the VideoForge SDI.

The new VideoForge models employ 16 internal parameter-based software pattern renderers, supporting thousands of pattern variations.
“Video technology is changing rapidly,” says AVProAlliance president Jerry Palleschi.
“The VideoForge family is the only solution that can change quickly enough to keep up.”
The VideoForge 4K and VideoForge SDI can generate any one of the billion possible colours inside a display’s colour space, making these devices better suited than any previous solution for precise display characterisation generating a 3D Cube LookUpTable (LUT).
“Any model VideoForge can generate any specified R,G,B triplet at any window size,” says product manager Tom Schulte.
Every pattern in the VideoForges can be delivered in 3D on compatible 3D display displays. The left-eye/right-eye gating function visually tests stereo imaging separation to allow technicians to fully evaluate 3D performance.
