Explore five interactive AI exhibits at SNS booth #SL5711
St. Louis, MO – April 6, 2025 – Today at NAB Show 2025, Studio Network Solutions (SNS) unveiled the AI Playground, a unique and interactive experience designed to showcase the evolving role of artificial intelligence in media workflows. This exhibit features five distinct areas where attendees can explore AI-powered tools that enhance metadata generation, media search, and workflow efficiency.
“SNS is committed to developing safe, practical AI solutions for media production,” said Ryan Stoutenborough, president at SNS. “The AI Playground highlights some of our most innovative work and serves as a collaborative space where attendees can engage with these technologies, provide feedback, and explore AI’s potential in their own workflows.”
The AI Playground’s five interactive areas include:
- Meta Query: Instantly locate media using AI-powered metadata search. Need 4K snow footage or 2K clips of female ballet dancers in red shoes from 2012? Simply describe what you’re looking for, and AI will deliver the most relevant results.
- Open Clip Integration: No metadata? No problem. This AI analyzes visual content to identify images or videos, regardless of existing tags or metadata.
- Like Image Search: Upload an image or video, and AI will find visually similar content—like Google Image Search for your shared storage.
- Text/Transcript Search: Ask AI questions about your media’s transcript and receive timecode-accurate answers that link directly to your content.
- On-Premise Auto-Tagging: Automatically tag your media using standard hardware—no expensive cloud AI services or subscription fees required.
“One of our key objectives is to demonstrate the viability of on-premises AI,” said Matt Ratkowski, director of engineering at SNS. “We want to show that powerful AI tools can run on existing hardware—without requiring major infrastructure investments.”
The AI Playground is exclusively available for demo at NAB Show 2025, booth #SL5711. Learn more about SNS’s offerings at snsevo.com.
