===Mark III (June 2015 - Present)===
Following an unexpected windfall of funding from Greg Dyke, Kenobi was rebuilt and upgraded to HD in June 2015. The [[ATEM 1 M/E]] mixer bought in 2013 was replaced in the Studio by a newer 4K model, and was reassigned for use on OBs. OB1 was temporarily replaced by [[Computing:Ystvedit2|Edit 2]], which was installed with the Intensity capture card and a Decklink Extreme 3. This allowed for the same machine to both stream/record and output fill and key CasparCG graphics.

With the rebuild, the patch panels were rearranged. The BNC and Comms patches were moved to the bottom to reduced the strain on the umbilicals, while the rest of the I/O patches were raised to table-height. The XLR-4 PDU 'Fan Tray' was put into use for its intended purpose, with the XLRs patched to the same panel as Comms. Meanwhile, a splitter box was made so that the contents of the shelf - all of which run at 5V or 12V - could also be powered by this PDU.

There is likely to be a power alteration to bring both OB1 and OB2 onto a 16A power supply system with a 13A internal power distro.
