Panasonic PTZ lineup: Auto Tracking Solution https://news.broadfield.com/panasonic-ptz-lineup-auto-tracking-solution/ Wed, 22 Nov 2023 17:39:43 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=27134 PTZ cameras are offering new ways to film smoothly and from challenging angles without having to manually move the camera around or operate it by hand. The auto-tracking reduces the burden on AV staff or operators whilst still capturing high-quality, professional content.

New to PTZ cameras, the Built-in auto-tracking function is a free-of-charge, easy-to-use system that is provided with some of our PTZ cameras as a standard feature* and basically runs on the camera’s processing power.

  • Software update may be required before use.
    Model: AW-UE80W/K, UE50W/K, UE40W/K

External software-based auto-tracking is a more sophisticated and customizable system that requires the AW-SF100 or AW-SF200 Panasonic software and runs on the CPU and GPU power of the computer on which the software is installed.

Panasonic PTZ Auto Tracking Firmware Update – Built in Tracking for Free! https://news.broadfield.com/panasonic-ptz-auto-tracking-firmware-update-built-in-tracking-for-free/ Tue, 22 Aug 2023 13:50:27 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=26268 In this video Kriss from Holdan AV, looks at the latest firmware update for the Panasonic AW-UE40 and AW-UE50 PTZ cameras, which after much demand brings built-in subject auto tracking – a fantastic feature brought to already very capable 4K cameras for free.

This update is out now for the UE40 and UE50, with the UE80 to come later this year.

Tracking is super simple to engage, you can simply turn it on and the camera will then pick up whoever is in the frame and start to track them.

If the camera loses the subject, you can set it so that it reverts to a preset, or a general wide shot, and then when someone is detected again it will automatically start to track. There’s the ability to set a limit for the pan and tilt ranges, so that even if the camera is following someone and they then walk past this pan limit, the camera will not move any further, and if the subject is lost it reverts back to the safety position. Another useful tool to build on this is using masks, from the web UI we can designate areas where we don’t want the camera to detect people. Tracking can also be set to remain active if power cycled, again another nifty feature.

Performance of this tracking system works really well, it seemed really responsive and in conjunction with Panasonic’s direct drive system the movements of the camera seem really smooth and almost organic. You don’t get all the bells and whistles that you would with a tracking system that relies on a host machine, such as Panasonics SF100/200, or the likes of MRMC’s Polymotion Chat, nor can you control multiple cameras from the one interface, or have facial recognition – but, that user really isn’t who this update is targeting. If you just want simple and reliable camera tracking, then this is really attractive solution – it’s pretty much a set and forget situation.
