The Canobeam DT-150 HD
Rather than running bulky and expensive SMPTE hybrid
fiber cable or single-mode fiber cable up to the 20th floor,
a far better solution is the convenience and reliability of
Canon's Canobeam DT-150 HD bidirectional wireless Free
Space Optics technology. The Canobeam DT-150 HD
enables the TV network to capture bird's-eye point-of-view
shots of a world-famous tourist destination in HDTV while
simultaneously controlling the pan, tilt, and zoom functions
•
Maximum recommended transmission distance:
approximately 1 kilometer (3,168 ft.).
• Exclusive Canon Auto Tracking maintains beam alignment
despite vibrations from street traffic or wind conditions.
• No frequency interference, coordination, or licensing
necessary with Free Space Optics.
CHALLENGE#5
SOLUTION
A robotic PTZ (pan/tilt/zoom) camera is mounted 20
floors up on the side of a landmark office building to
Using technology such as Evertz's
Quad Serial Data Embedders and De-
Embedders and a pair of Canobeam
DT-150 HD video transceivers, the
network is able to transmit HD-SDI
video signals from the PTZ camera to
their control room while
simultaneously transmitting the
required control signals back to the
robotic PTZ head and its camera.
of their sky-high robotic camera (which is outfitted with
a Canon HD telephoto lens).
capture panoramic shots of a world-famous ice-
skating rink. It's the perfect vantage point, but how
can the TV network transmit control signals to the PTZ
camera while simultaneously receiving the camera's
HD-SDI video ouput?
