Canon Europe to focus on automated PTZ solutions at ISE

Canon Europe will be demonstrating its bolstered line-up of PTZ cameras, X Series camcorders, and EOS R System cameras and how they can be seamlessly integrated to create solutions for a range of new use cases across higher-education and corporate environments, at ISE.

Visitors to the show will be able to experience the benefits of Canon’s imaging solutions, including automated conference and lecture capture, virtual corporate studios and VR for immersive education.

In the automated learning zone, PTZ cameras enabled with auto-tracking software will highlight how lectures can be recorded and streamed without the intervention of an operator, which would benefit universities looking to maintain efficient hybrid learning spaces with limited resources.

With the recent rise in video conferencing in the corporate space, Canon will also demonstrate how its PTZ cameras can work with Sennheiser ceiling microphones to make meetings more seamless and autonomous.

The company’s customisable multi-camera set-up will demonstrate how to create corporate content for a range of production scenarios. There will be a range of products in action, from large-format cinema cameras to remote-control PTZ cameras. This area will also showcase how Canon’s mirrorless range can be used for corporate use with products such as the recently announced EOS R6 Mark II.

Canon will address the growing demand for XR studio solutions by teaming up with INFiLED to demonstrate how its PTZ cameras with in-built FreeD protocol can seamlessly interact with the virtual scenes of an LED wall to create a true-to-life result.

Visitors to the show will also be able to immerse themselves in a variety of VR content captured with the Canon EOS R5, EOS R5 C and RF 5.2mm F2.8L Dual Fisheye Lens. Paired with PCs from Lenovo and headsets provided by Varjo, this offers a new approach to teaching and training across the corporate and education industries.

Matthew Koshy, European product marketing specialist at Canon Europe, said: “The AV industry is constantly evolving, and our products and solutions reflect this change. Our focus is on how remote and live production setups – particularly PTZ solutions – can push the boundaries of imaging, enabling corporate, education and live events markets to effortlessly achieve enhanced engagement with their prospective audiences.”

Canon will be on stand A800, in Hall 3, at ISE 2023.
