Native AI-Based Auto-Tracking & Auto-framing

The Explore 100 incorporates native AI-based auto-tracking and auto-framing technology, this intelligent feature automatically follows subjects, enhancing ease of use and ensuring that important moments are captured flawlessly.

NDI® and NDI® HX Support

The Explore 100 PTZ camera supports both NDI® and NDI®|HX, offering flexible, high-efficiency video streaming options. NDI® provides high-quality, low-latency video over IP networks, while NDI®|HX optimizes bandwidth usage for smoother performance in network-constrained environments. This dual support ensures robust and adaptable connectivity for diverse broadcasting needs.

4K-12G-SDI

High-Speed 12G-SDI for Professional 4K Video

The Explore 100 PTZ camera features 12G-SDI, a high-speed video interface capable of transmitting 4K video at 60 frames per second over a single cable. This ensures uncompressed, high-quality video output with minimal latency, making it ideal for professional broadcasting and live event production. The 12G-SDI connection also supports longer cable runs without signal degradation, providing reliable performance in demanding environments.

Genlock Ensures Seamless Synchronization for Multi-Camera Productions

In multi-camera productions, Genlock (generator lock) ensures seamless switching and compositing of video sources. This synchronization technique provides a reference signal, typically from a dedicated generator or a master camera, guaranteeing all connected devices capture frames at precisely the same time. This prevents tearing and inconsistencies during video production and editing. The Explore 100 features Genlock for superior synchronization, allowing it to function as the main camera and ensure precise video synchronization with sub-cameras in broadcasting and live streaming setups.

FreeD Integration Unlocks Immersive Virtual Productions

FreeD is a protocol that enables precise transmission of Pan, Tilt, Zoom, and Focus (PTZF) data directly from the camera to tracking system. Widely supported by most virtual set systems, FreeD makes virtual productions easier than ever. The Explore 100 seamlessly integrates FreeD technology, empowering users to explore dynamic shooting angles and perspectives, ideal for versatile real-world and virtual-world applications. Explore 100’s broad compatibility with industry-leading virtual set systems like Brainstorm, Vizrt, Zero Density, Aximmetry, Unreal Engine, and VSet3D  ensures a smooth workflow for all your virtual production needs.

Local Recording for Backup and Cloud Production

Explore 100 empowers you with in-camera recording via a microSD card slot. Simply insert a Micro SD Card for local recording, providing instant backup during network issues, quick access for event review, and readily available files for upload to your preferred cloud platform. This versatile recording solution ensures peace of mind and streamlines your cloud production process.

Seamless Camera Setup with SSDP

Setting up your Telycam PTZ camera has never been easier, thanks to SSDP integration. This feature streamlines the process of finding your camera’s IP address, especially under multi-camera streaming, eliminating the need for complicated searches or additional tools. Simply connect your camera with an Ethernet cable, ensuring it’s on the same local network with your computer.

Dual Tally Lights for Effortless Production Cues

Explore 100 features built-in dual tally lights, visible on both the front and back of the camera. These lights work seamlessly with NDI, Visca Serial, and Visca over IP protocols. With a simple glance, on-screen talent and crew can identify the currently live camera (“Program”) and the one lined up for the next transition (“Preview”). This intuitive system ensures clear communication, guaranteeing smooth video production.
