ATEM Live Production Switchers

If you’re working with live production switchers, then Blackmagic Design's switcher SDK lets you take control of the full feature set of any ATEM switcher. There is nothing like the adrenaline of live events and now you can build automation systems and control solutions quickly! The Switcher Software Developers Kit not only handles switcher control but it also gives you access to the Video Device Embedded Control Protocol for controlling cameras from the switchers, so you can develop solutions that can control cameras from ATEM switchers, adding even more control to live event production!
