NDI Launches Free Developer Course, Expands IP Video Training at InfoComm 2026
NDI has launched a new free, five-hour online course called "NDI Fundamentals for Developers" aimed at providing technical training for SDK integration and product architecture. This initiative seeks to standardize development practices for NDI-enabled products across various workflows, including hardware, software, and cloud-native solutions. Additionally, NDI will offer an "Introduction to NDI Development" session and showcase its ecosystem at InfoComm 2026, featuring partners and demonstrations of NDI 6.3.
Key Takeaways
- The "NDI Fundamentals for Developers" course is free, five hours long, and focuses on SDK integration, product architecture, and testing for NDI-enabled products.
- Developers completing the course can earn AVIXA Renewal Unit (RU) credits, following NDI’s existing NDI Basics course.
- NDI will present an "Introduction to NDI Development" session at InfoComm 2026 on June 16, from 4-5 p.m. at W203/W204.
- InfoComm 2026 attendees can visit the NDI Ecosystem Booth (C7572) to see demos from partners like TSL, Creston, BirdDog, Inogeni, and a live Zoom integration with NDI 6.3.
Why It Matters
NDI's focus on developer education aims to professionalize and standardize the integration of its IP video technology. By offering free, in-depth training and AVIXA credits, NDI directly addresses fragmentation in product development and aims to increase the stability and interoperability of its ecosystem. This move could accelerate adoption of NDI's latest features, like those in NDI 6.3 for distributed multi-location production and AI-ready workflows. Industry players should observe the uptake of this developer course and subsequent product releases for signs of more consistent NDI implementations in professional AV and broadcast solutions.
