Engineering Hubs
Austria
The engineering development hub in Vienna is comprised of a tight-knit group of talented software and hardware engineers who are committed to developing world class products for the broadcast and event industry.
The Vienna hub supports a software team proficient in front- and backend development, automated test software, and FPGA programming as well as a hardware team specializing in PCB layout and mechanical design. Combined, the group is uniquely qualified to create and implement the fiber transport, video processing, and wireless communications solutions that are at the heart of Riedel’s Artist, Bolero, and MediorNet product lines.
With the broadcast industry undergoing major disruptive change as it embarks on the transition to IP-based transport of media signals, the role of the Vienna hub is sure to increase even further.

Portugal
A complement to Riedel’s Rental Innovation department, the R&D hub in Porto is tasked with delivering pioneering innovations and real-time analytics centered around nautical technology with a focus on water sports.
Continuing Riedel’s investments in new technologies, the Porto hub has expanded the company’s global R&D team to over 100 engineers. Started with just three members, the Riedel team in Porto has grown to a staff of five just within six months. Their focus is on developing tools for performance analysis on the water and providing technology that enables the nautical sports community to watch live broadcasts and interact in real-time with performance analytics.
The hub is located at the dynamic UPTEC Mar, a part of the University of Porto. The university specializes in scientific and technological projects that have an impact on the global ocean economy and ocean-based sports activities.

Switzerland
A R&D hub in Switzerland is Riedel’s response to the increased demand for IP-enabled hardware and software solutions across its product range. The facility now concentrates a significant amount of engineering talent in a single location where there can be total focus on developing the hardware and software innovations that will drive future broadcast workflows.
Tapping engineering talent from Riedel subsidiary Archwave and the Smart Audio development team comprised of former Studer team members, this R&D center is currently operating with software developers and hardware specialists with plans to further ramp up staff and capabilities in the very near future. The R&D hub is co-located with Riedel Switzerland.
Archwave offers a complete line of USB, RAVENNA and AES67 interoperability solutions, NMOS discovery, registration and connection management, and AES70 solutions. All of these are essential components of broadcast IP workflows and their further development will be an important part of Riedel’s new R&D center. The Zurich IP Hub combines deep knowledge of contemporary IT infrastructures and many years of experience in high-volume end-node applications with efficient chip-only implementations for highly scalable technologies.
Working on easy-to-use and fully redundant Audio- and Video-Over IP connection management systems, the R&D team will put significant effort into how cloud technologies can be leveraged for Riedel’s broadcast and event applications.
The engineering teams are working on individual projects as well as joint projects within the core Riedel R&D team.
