Recognized for their capacity of innovation, the Walloon companies are more and more involved in the framework of major sporting events. For example, numerous cutting edge technologies developed in Wallonia will  be used during the Football World Cup in Brazil. Let us take a closer look at I-MOVIX, headquartered in Mons.

Using innovative, rapidly changing technology, the company from Mons specialises in extreme slow motion images – up to a few thousand images per second – and continues to amaze big names in the world of televised sport. TV Globo, which manages over 100 Brazilian television channels, and Sky Italy, to name only those two examples, will use I-MOVIX extreme slow motion technology to cover the upcoming Football World Cup.

Last April, at the NAB 2014 trade fair, I-MOVIX presented its new product range, concentrating on a modular configuration focussing on the X10 camera's control unit, to make it adaptable to all of its clients' requirements. Each camera configuration may be personalised to meet the needs, performance and budget wise, of a whole host of televised production scenarios.

Well-established in its region, I-MOVIX is a small to medium-sized Walloon company with a clearly international outlook whose expertise is already widely acknowledged by major media players such as CCTV in China, ESPN in the USA, BT Sport in the UK and TV Globo in Brazil, to name but a few. Accordingly, the slow motion cameras developed by I-MOVIX are used in major European football championships, including the Champion’s League, football Premier League, Eredivisie, Football Italia Serie A, Europa League, Liga BBVA, and Ligue 1.
