Pan Tilt Zoom Camera

A Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera is a type of camera that is highly versatile and controllable, allowing the user to pan (move horizontally), tilt (move vertically), and zoom the camera lens remotely. PTZ cameras can be controlled from a distance using a joystick, software, or even remotely over the internet, making them ideal for locations where manual operation is not feasible. They can move left to right (pan) and up and down (tilt), offering a wide range of coverage. This feature is crucial for monitoring large areas, as a single PTZ camera can cover what would otherwise require multiple fixed cameras.

PTZ cameras have powerful zoom lenses that can focus on distant objects with clarity. This feature is particularly useful for detailed monitoring or when needing to identify persons or objects at a distance. PTZ cameras often support high-definition video standards, ensuring clear, detailed images that are crucial for both surveillance and broadcast-quality video production.
