Seervision partners with Canon to offer automated control of its PTZ line-up

Exceptional image quality of Canon PTZ cameras combined with leading camera automation software allows for professional video production with minimal effort.

The Seervision Suite automates live video productions and thanks to the integration with Canon robotic cameras, opening the technology to a new range of users in the live and hybrid events, education, corporate, and many other markets.

Through one of the most open and advanced APIs in the industry, the Seervision Suite seamlessly integrates with Canon PTZ cameras. Together they provide an easily deployable solution allowing an operator to automate camera tracking and production workflows, as reliable and natural as from a human operator, with outstanding image quality. Users can remotely monitor and control multiple cameras at the same time and need only intervene if necessary, such as to create beauty-shots.

Striving to provide its customers with the most advanced technology, Canon now includes video production automation as part of its offering, introducing the Seervision Suite capabilities to its customers.

“When Seervision introduced us to the solution they’ve developed, we were impressed by the quality of tracking and automation. We see the integration of our PTZ cameras with the Seervision Suite as well-suited to a wide range of use cases and it marks another step towards enabling our customers to be as flexible in their video production as they want to be. We are excited to be working closely together with Seervision to ensure our customers have access to market-leading technology that significantly enhances productivity and unleashes creativity.”

Matthew Koshy, European product marketing specialist at Canon Europe

Conrad von Grebel, Co-founder and Product Team Lead, has said: “Seervision is delighted to partner with Canon to get the very best from their PTZ cameras in combination with our software. Canon and Seervision capitalize on a customer-driven approach and their hardware perfectly complements the Seervision Suite and its mission to make video production effortless for everyone. Now, we are excited to bring our technology to new audiences through Canon’s PTZ customer base and start addressing their needs.”
