PanaPod
The Panapod is an elevation unit specifically designed for Panasonic PTZ cameras. The elevation unit can be used as a standalone system on a stage, in a studio, behind a goal, in a conference venue, or in a press conference, to provide an unobtrusive camera position that is great for the spectators whilst not interfering with the artists, players’ action, presenters or the sequence being shot.
The elevation of the Panapod can easily be controlled from Panasonic RP remote panels by using the joystick, in a fully integrated operation over the network. Elevation values can be stored as presets to be recalled any time later. Alternatively, the Panapod can be controlled from a pair of foot pedals or from a desktop controller, so that the operator can choose the most comfortable method of operation in every situation. The Panapod does not require any PC or dedicated software.
Two elevation units can be combined for a total maximum height of 3 meters, allowing the camera to be in the far end of the room, clearly above the heads of the audience.
