Voice Based PTZ Control

When using Panasonic PTZ cameras with Sennheiser microphones for audio-based tracking, the PTZ cameras can automatically switch focus between different speakers. With automated and smooth camera panning, it’s ideal for online conferences, training courses or lectures when questions are asked from the floor, or a new person speaks at the conference table for example.
The solution uses Panasonic PTZ cameras, TeamConnect Ceiling 2 microphones from Sennheiser and a special module development from Systemhaus Pauly. They are managed centrally by a controller via the network, using a media control system such as the CP3 from Crestron.

AV AUDIO TRACKING


Audio-based tracking opens up a range of new possibilities and can be used in conjunction with Panasonic’s existing Auto-Tracking Software (AW-SF100 / AW-SF200). The systems are complimentary with each other, for example at a conference when a main speaker can be recorded via auto-tracking by a PTZ camera while other participants are filmed with a second camera when they speak using audio-based tracking.

AUDIO TRACKING & AUTO-TRACKING


The settings for the audio-tracking can be adjusted individually and saved as a preset. For example, priority can be given to individuals to avoid unintentional panning to conversations in the audience. Clip-on microphones can also be integrated into the AV recording schedule and prioritised accordingly. A slight time delay can also be set for the PTZ camera, so that it only pans once there is a permanent audio signal.
