![]() Sending and Receiving Data to and from PTZ cameras. Or some of their sub-variants only send the same type of information. Motion Control Rig is actually a Robotic Camera System that provides Complete Tracking of the Camera, and they are not considered PTZ systems even though they can still use the same protocols as PTZ cameras. PTZ cameras have been used by a big portion of our users because of their relatively easy operation and setup process. PTZ cameras are easier to set up as they send Tracking, Zoom and Focus data together. PTZ Camera is usually a complete Pan-Tilt-Zoom-Focus system where the camera is built into the mechanism. ![]() IMPORTANT: The above example does not have Tracking capabilities however it is possible there is a similar system that might have. While for others Aximmetry can measure it during the Calibration process. Some Tracking systems can provide this information. You will additionally need parameters for lens distortion. There might exist cameras that use Direct DataConnection from the Camera to send accurate Zoom/Focus information.Only a Zoom device like “Glassmark” (this provides fix focus only).This provides the data to determine the Zoom/Focus values. So If you use Motorized Pan/Tilt heads and you wish to have Zoom/Focus control. Lens Encoder (Zoom/Focus Device) is a separate device from the Pan/Tilt head, which can provide Zoom and Focus information. A very specific camera due to its properties.An existing camera that you already own and used but itself does not have tracking capabilities. ![]() This is really useful if your production needs to: Motorized Pan/Tilt heads are a Pan+Tilt system that can be used with multiple Compatible Cameras. ![]() Note: “Motorized pan/tilt heads” is not the same as the more advanced “Motion Control Rig” even if they can communicate with the same protocols. “Motorized Pan/Tilt heads” + “Zoom Device”.There are two main kinds of PTZ solutions What type of PTZ solutions are out there? It is a mechatronics solution that can adjust Camera orientation, Zoom and Focus parameters over software or controller. PTZ is an abbreviation for Pan-Tilt-Zoom.
