Qnap Partners With Bronze Visual Art

QNAP Systems, Inc. provided Bronze Visual Art with an 8K UHD backup solution dedicated to A New Vision of National Treasures, the documentary film sponsored by the Taiwan National Palace Museum in 2020.

The artworks documented in the film include the renowned Jadeite Cabbage and Meat-Shaped Stone, the Tibetan Buddhism’s classic from the Qing dynasty – Tibetan Dragon Sutra, and the Three Treasures of the National Palace Museum – Travelers among Mountains and Streams by Fan Kuan, Early Spring by Guo Xi, and Whispering Pines in Myriad Valleys by Li Tang from the Song dynasty.

Bronze Visual Art adopts 8K UHD (7,680 x 4,320), which is the highest resolution defined in the Rec. 2020 (UHDTV) standard, to film A New Vision of National Treasures. Every detail of the cultural relics were thereby brought to the eyes of the world. For example, the signature is blurred on the surface in Fan Kuan’s Travelers Among Mountains and Streams; however, even a trivial crack has become clear for direct visual observations in 8K UHD resolution. Bronze Visual Art has brought the world a deeper vision into the beauty of national treasures.

8K UHD filming and post-production require high-capacity and high-speed backup. Bronze Visual Art entrusted their works to a QNAP TS-h1283XU-RP enterprise-grade NAS, equipped with a 10GbE network expansion card and QM2-2P-384 PCIe cards for M.2 NVMe SSDs. The QNAP TS-h1283XU-RP uses the ZFS-based QuTS hero OS and allows data de-dupe/compression for backup and post-production efficiency. As for the HDDs, Seagate IronWolf Pro hard drives for NAS and IronWolf 510 SSD were chosen to provide Bronze Visual Art with a more reliable and 24/7 backup environment.

“Establishing digital archives is the landmark achievement marking industrial transformation in the art industry. It is the greatest honor for QNAP to be a part of this incredible achievement. We are glad to see the national treasures well-preserved with the TS-h1283XU-RP and 10GbE high-speed network,” said Teddy Kuo, chairman.
