MRMC develops exclusive version of Polymotion Chat Pro for Panasonic PTZs

The Panasonic compact cameras, PTZ heads and integrated PTZ cameras receive an exclusive version of MRMC’s Polymotion Chat Pro software that facilitates their automated control.

Available from this month, Polymotion Chat Pro Panasonic Edition is a software solution that allows operators to automate monitoring and filming with up to three cameras from a single computer. The software boasts interesting features such as a limb detection solution, making it easy to track the presenter and/or guests.

The automated real-time control, Panasonic notes, tracks movements “smoothly and evenly”, “as if it were a human camera operator”. This, says the company, “allows increased productivity and quality of recordings in a scalable and intuitive solution”.

Paddy Taylor, head of broadcast at MRMC, says he is delighted with the new partnership with Panasonic: “Thanks to this partnership, the technology will be able to reach a new audience through Panasonic’s PTZ camera customer base, and will also extend the reach of this revolutionary software”.

On the other hand, Guilhem Krier, director of new business and market development department in Panasonic’s MEBD and DSC business units, notes: “Panasonic’s goal is to offer its customers intuitive solutions, create workflows that radically improve productivity and unleash creativity. The addition of Polymotion Chat Pro Panasonic Edition is a further example of this commitment and allows users to get the most out of our market-leading PTZ cameras.”
