Robotic camera system delivers shots of Olympic Village
Feb 24, 2006 5:24 PM
NBC has positioned Telemetrics’ weatherproof camera robotics pan/tilt systems in the Olympic Village to provide wide angle views and other panoramic shots.
The Telemetrics system includes the PT-LWP-S3 weatherproof pan/tilt system, the LWP-HOU-S3 weatherproof housing and the CP-D3A control panel.
The precision pan/tilt head features provide camera-operator-like camera movements, and the heavy-duty bearings and motors with isolation mounts provide smooth, quiet operation. Up to 255 presets are available and the unit is controlled through serial data using RS-232 or RS-422, or through 10/100 Base-T Ethernet.
The CP-D3A desktop control panel allows the operator to adjust the pan/tilt/zoom functions of the system via the joystick or call up camera selects with the touch of a button.
