Splashtop Inc. Joins Anime System Community (ASC) to Support Anime Production

Splashtop Inc. (Headquarters: Tokyo, Representative Director and President: Yoshiaki Mizuno, hereinafter Splashtop), a provider of remote access solutions, has announced its participation as a supporting member in the Anime System Community (hereinafter, ASC), an industry community specializing in IT and system areas for anime production sites.

Contributing to the strengthening of IT infrastructure supporting Japanese anime production

The Japanese anime industry is a cultural asset that the world can be proud of, and it is an important content field with a strong presence in the international market. In its production sites, as digitalization and the sophistication of production systems progress, the development of IT environments for anime production and digital infrastructure for the video production industry is becoming increasingly important.

Splashtop provides a high-definition remote access environment optimized for creative production to meet the demands of modern anime production workflows. With AI-optimized codec technology, 4:4:4 color mode for accurate color reproduction, and high frame rate 4K streaming at up to 60fps (including support for iMac Pro Retina 5K displays), production work can be performed remotely without compromising image quality or responsiveness. Furthermore, with low-latency performance and flexible streaming settings, it supports secure and flexible collaboration between locations while maintaining production standards.

Based on these product features, our company has accumulated extensive business achievements with many video production companies and anime production-related companies, supporting the sophistication of their production environments. In the Japanese market, we have a track record of promoting initiatives that are close to the needs of production sites, such as providing "Wacom Bridge," a feature for creators jointly developed with Wacom Co., Ltd.

Against the backdrop of this continuous engagement with the industry, we have agreed with the purpose of ASC's activities, an industry community specializing in the IT and system areas of anime production sites, and have decided to participate.
