GoVertical! AiDiCypress, CA, May 27, 2026 – FOR-A America will bring its three of its proven live event production technologies to InfoComm 2026 in Las Vegas next month: Alfalite LED displays; MixBoard® software-based switcher; viztrick AiDi – a 9:16 auto-cropping and tracking AI solution; and the FA-1616 multi-channel processor with advanced color correction capability. All solutions are available for immediate delivery, and all exemplify the company’s approach to flexible, IP-enabled workflows for live event production and corporate communications.
FOR-A will exhibit in booth #C8816 during the show, which runs from June 17-19 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Software-Defined Workflows
Reflecting FOR-A’s evolution into a provider of live production workflows spanning cloud, IP, IT infrastructure, and edge-based intelligence, the FOR-A booth will feature all solutions as interactive demos, accessible via touch screen at any kiosk. Visitors will be able to view demonstrations and drive operations from the kiosks. Video demonstrations will also be showcased on partner company, Alfalite’s, LED wall for a more immersive viewing experience. Team members will be on hand to discuss how FOR-A’s new solutions help overcome today’s most pressing live video production challenges.
“This is a big departure from our typical operations as a hardware-centric provider,” said FOR-A America President and COO Satoshi Kanemura. “And it’s very different from how we’ve showcased our technology at InfoComm in years past. With this booth design, we are signaling our commitment to developing the solutions for software-defined live event production workflows across a range of budgets and applications.”
LED Displays from Alfalite
FOR-A America is the U.S. partner of the Spanish LED screen manufacturer, Alfalite, whose latest display developments will be on hand at in the FOR-A InfoComm booth. Alfalite’s MATIX AlfaCOB (Chip-on-Board) and AlfaMIP (MicroLED-in-package) designs are integrated into the new Neopix and UHD Finepix LED panels. Specifically designed for critical applications in control rooms and corporate settings, the UHD Finepix panels come in five pixel pitches—0.6 mm, 0.9 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, and 1.8 mm—and are built using MATIX AlfaCOB or MATIX AlfaMIP for MicroLED assemblies. All Alfalite technology is made in Spain and TAA certified for government use.
MATIX improves upon Alfalite’s incredible ORIM (Optical Injection Resin Module) technology. Like ORIM, MATIX offers an ultra-wide viewing angle of up to 175°, while further reducing glare and reflections. With MATIX, fully encapsulated LED modules are built with advanced materials that protect against impacts, liquids, and chemicals. It also enhances thermal dissipation, color and brightness uniformity, contrast, and deeper blacks, providing optimal performance in a wide range of conditions.
MixBoard, Available for Immediate Delivery
Also in the InfoComm FOR-A booth is the award-winning, MixBoard, powered by ClassX. MixBoard is a software-based switcher that enables users to create complex compositions with unlimited layers. It empowers switching between cameras, presentations and multimedia sources, using professional 2D/3D transition effects. Key innovations of the MixBoard include new video input types such as the Media Engine for seamless playout of video clips, stills, playlists; and the Compositor for creating complex layouts and transitions with greater control during live productions. The MixBoard is ideal for corporate events, live presentations, and hybrid production environments.
Anything In, Anything Out: FOR-A’s FA-1616 multi-channel processor
The FA-1616 multi-channel processor is the ultimate showcase of FOR-A’s software-defined approach with its “anything in, anything out” architecture that supports up to 32 streams. With SMPTE ST 2110 and ST 2022 interfaces, the FA-1616 multi-channel processor is an ideal gateway between SDI and IP as well as IP to IP and SDI to SDI. The FOR-A processor is well known for its color correction capability and intuitive user interface, which ideal for specific LED color correction requirements. The FA-1616’s frame synchronizer also supports 4K/12G-SDI/High Dynamic Range/Wide Color Gamut and simultaneous processing of 4K UHD and HD video by using four channels together as a 4K processor. Latest enhancements to the FA-1616 include expanded format support and improved integration capabilities.
Like other products in the FOR-A line, it can be monitored and controlled via a web browser or Ember+ and monitored via SNMP networking protocol. A redundant power supply is standard on all models.
Real-Time 9:16 AI Auto-cropping
viztrick AiDi is an on-device AI solution developed by Nippon TV, delivered globally by FOR-A, and powered by NVIDIA AI infrastructure. It’s ideal for anywhere 9:16 live streaming is in demand: news conferences, product launches, seminars, town hall meetings, training presentations, and any event viewers will engage with on their mobile devices. The GoVertical! AiDi feature delivers real-time, AI-aided 9:16 auto-cropping and auto-tracking for immediate live streaming.
The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) bestowed a “Product of the Year” award in its Streaming category on viztrick AiDi, and Future Publishing presented it with a “TV Tech Best of Show” award at the 2026 NAB Show last month.
viztrick AiDi delivers real-time player tracking, face tagging, object recognition, 2.5D telestration, auto-score graphics, and motion data analytics. Unlike cloud-based alternatives, viztrick AiDi operates entirely on-device, eliminating reliance on internet connectivity while ensuring consistent performance in outside broadcast and remote production environments.
“We’re making it easy for organizations to navigate the transition to a more flexible, IP-enabled production environment,” explained Kanemura. “Our production solutions adapt to your existing workflow instead of constraining it. They deliver the versatility and broadcast grade performance that mission-critical applications demand, and they’ve proven their reliability in the field time and time again. Come see us at InfoComm, and we’ll show you.”
