University of Nebraska-Lincoln

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s HuskerVision department oversees an athletics ecosystem unlike almost any other in college sports. Across Memorial Stadium, Pinnacle Bank Arena, Devaney Center, Haymarket Park, and several additional venues, the team supports everything from football and basketball to volleyball, swimming, soccer, tennis, and track — often with multiple events happening on the same day.

For years, the growing number of productions — more than 300 events annually — challenged the limits of a traditional, hardware‑centric workflow. As demands increased, so did the need for flexible routing, seamless venue‑to‑venue signal transport, and an infrastructure that could empower both full‑time staff and a large student crew to work efficiently across three active control rooms.

Like many organizations transitioning from legacy environments, HuskerVision first stepped into IP through audio. Migrating from AES3 and Dante to networked audio laid the foundation for a larger shift: a complete move to ST2110 video, software‑based processing, and a unified system that adapts as rapidly as their live-event schedule.

To achieve this, Nebraska turned to a fully software-driven workflow centered around HOME Apps, COTS-based processing, and a flexible backbone capable of managing video, audio, and metadata essences independently.

This new IP infrastructure allows operators to switch among venues, reconfigure shows, adjust multiviewers, and scale resources up or down with ease — essential in an environment where students build shows, operate cameras, manage big-screen productions, and learn to function in professional workflows every day.

Discover how the HuskerVision team leverages software-based production to support simultaneous events across multiple venues, streamline collaboration with TV trucks, and give students hands-on experience inside a cutting-edge broadcast facility — all powered by an agile IP platform designed to evolve with every season.
