MELVILLE, N.Y., April 1, 2010 — Chyron and Txtstation Mobile Marketing have developed a plug-in solution for Chyron's Lyric(R) PRO software.
Txtstation's "Pollster" plug-in enables the Lyric PRO software to display real-time voting data, trivia, and text-to-screen graphics.
Txtstation Vice President of Sales and Business Development Michael Falato said, "Chyron's Lyric tools are in 92 percent of our partner studios, stadiums, and OB trucks. We have been asked by clients to develop a plug-in that enables Chyron operators to simply click on a program and feed real-time votes from texts, online feeds, and IVR files, which we have achieved with Pollster. This means that we can provide graphics tied to relevant data from start to finish with no need for additional hardware. Chyron is a prestige brand and respected technology partner, and we appreciate their cooperation in making this plug-in a reality."
Chyron Chief Operating Officer Kevin Prince said, "The sophistication of the Lyric PRO system is such that it lends itself to innovative and productive add-ins such as the Pollster developed by Txtstation. We expect this to be among many developments that will ultimately benefit Chyron users worldwide."
