The Trial Platform team is a new team that exists to let people try out the future broadcasting technologies developed by R & D outside of our lab, focusing on producing live content using completely software and IP-based technology, as opposed to traditional broadcasting equipment. You can read more about the research project underpinning the platform at http://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/projects/ip-studio-lightweight-live, and an earlier trial using this technology at http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2017/bbc-to-live-stream-from-edinburgh-festivals.
