One Ethernet cable carries video, audio, control, tally, PoE+ power and tracking data, which makes it a strong fit for lecture capture, corporate studios and AR virtual sets with Viz Virtual Studio Go.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Vizrt VPTZ3B PTZ3 Plus work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PTZ3 Plus streams NDI|HX 3 or NDI|HX 2 using H.264 or HEVC, with simultaneous 3G-SDI and HDMI outputs for traditional switchers. It is controlled over NDI, so any TriCaster or NDI controller on the network can drive pan, tilt and zoom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAI presenter tracking keeps talent in frame based on face and posture detection, continues when the presenter turns away, and returns home after a selectable 0.5 to 10 second timeout. Edge limits stop the camera from tracking off set, and blackboard detection holds the shot on a presentation area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe camera embeds FreeD position, rotation and lens data in every NDI|HX frame, so AR and XR systems such as Viz Virtual Studio Go can use tracking data without extra hardware. A phantom-powered mini XLR input lets a microphone feed audio into the same stream, with two-step confirmation before +48V is enabled.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the box Vizrt includes a reversible L wall bracket, a fixed ceiling\/shelf plate, mount fixings, an IR remote for up to four cameras and a reversed faceplate for inverted mounting.
