Why Automate?
Broadcast robotics are already providing cost effective solutions
in a wide range of applications from simple one or two camera studios
to complex networks utilising total robotic solutions for everything
from news broadcasts to live sports action.
The increased capabilities and creative
advantages of broadcast robotics
are ensuring its rising dominance
in studio camera support. More and
more broadcasters are taking the
decision to move into robotics to reap
the obvious benefits:
“We need to maximise our resources while
minimising manual operation of the
equipment – but at the same time, we insist
on providing our viewers with top quality
and exciting programming. Vinten Radamec
is helping us to achieve just that, especially
in the case of live sports broadcasts, which
demand fast and reliable operation. We have
found that Vinten Radamec Fusion robotic
systems are the best fit for all aspects of our
operation – from payload and effective
remote control to general ease of operation.”
Dominic Leung, Managing Director of
Television & Content, PCCW
04
Why Automate?
High quality, repeatable on-air
movement
Ability to position cameras
in inaccessible areas
Each shot is stored and executed precisely,
so directors and stations can maintain a
unique look for each show, preserving the
station or programme identity.
The camera can be placed in
inaccessible or remote locations to
provide interesting and unusual shots.
This provides access to areas of high
security or scenes where an operator
would otherwise disturb the subject.
“The Vinten [Radamec] solution is a
completely integrated package. We’ve been
waiting for this type of package for years.”
Paul Lacombe, President,
Brainstorm America
www.vintenradamec.com
Dramatic reduction of production costs
Reduced complexity and increased
flexibility
The use of broadcast robotics guarantees
highly repeatable performance which
dramatically reduces production costs.
Automating camera positioning and
control releases operators to undertake
more creative and fulfilling work without
compromising production quality.
Overhead reductions are typically as
much as 50%, achieving payback on the
investment within three years or less.
The user interface is easy to use, and
operators are able to learn the necessary
skills within a few hours and can then
concentrate on achieving perfect framing
on every shot.
“We had no robotic experience; The operators
picked it up, and in a day and a half of training
they were using them. The control console is
very simple, easy to learn.”
Dusty Granberry, Director of Broadcast
Operations and Engineering, KEYE TV

Vinten Radamec LCS
Legislative Control System
The Vinten Radamec Legislative
Control System (LCS) provides
multi-user, multi-facility control
of cameras, CCU controls and
robotics devices, ensuring
rapid, accurate shot acquisition
required to televise parliamentary
and legislative procedures.
The system is configured for a single control
system and can be expanded to multiple control
stations with multiple cameras, providing shot
acquisition through joystick panel and
touchscreen control. The LCS also provides
interface links to additional facilities such as
data tablet operation, touch screen systems,
microphone systems, character generators
and vision switchers.
The flexible and intuitive user interface is based
on Windows XP, and the Graphics User Interface
(GUI) provides the operator with up to date
information on the available functions and status
of the system, and each seat in the software
seating plan is associated with multiple cameras,
each with multiple shot capabilities. The operator
assigns and prioritises a series of shot types
36
Control Systems
against each seat (or target) which is then
recalled through touchscreen control. The system
calculates the best quality shot available and pan
and tilt heads associated to these shots will
automatically move into position.
This intelligent system can also be used in
manual or automated mode, to ensure the best
available camera shot is taken to preview or
switched to air. In manual mode the operator
selects and controls single or multiple cameras
via the external device, using the standard preset
shot available. In automated mode, the standard
cue table offers a priority camera selection on
each pre-saved shot.
Shot selection can also be controlled via an
external trigger such as a microphone switcher.
When a particular microphone is activated it can
be used as a trigger for shot recall, from which
the LCS calculates the camera shot type required
and sends the shot to preview. This enables rapid
shot selection which in turn allows the operator
to concentrate on trimming the on-air cameras.

Building on the award winning Quattro S,
the SE variant maintains all of the benefits of the
ergonomically assisted lifting column, the small
doorway width, and the on shot performance
of any Vinten pedestal.
In keeping with Vinten Radamec’s aim to simplify
virtual tracking solutions, the output from the
pedestal is integrated with the Vision 250E,
Vector 430i, Vector 750i and Vector 950i head and
lens position feedback into a single data channel
to the rendering system of a virtual software
image generator.
To provide the tracking solution, high quality
precision encoders have been integrated into
the wheels and column. Also included is one
electronics module, and base processor which
deliver the accurate position data for all axes.
This combination with the head information
provides precise real time digital electronic
positioning over the floor and in elevation.
Key Features and Benefits
+ Best in class manual capability
+ Precise, real time digital electronic
positioning of floor and height
movement
+ PDA user interface simplifies set up in
the virtual studio and provides
positional feedback and calibration data
Virtual Tracking
The homing procedure has been simplified
further for ease of operation, with flexibility
on the direction and angle of approach, and
a fast targeting option. A cable management
system is incorporated into the pedestal, to
prevent the cable being caught or tangled
during repositioning.
The combination of simplified homing and
set up procedures, precise digital electronic
positioning and on shot performance ensure
that the Quattro SE is an ideal solution for
virtual studios around the world.
Reference
A PDA is included to provide the configuration and
operator’s user interface, significantly simplifying
the set up in the virtual studio. This is delivered
through the latest calibration routines, head set
up and optical axis offset input, whilst also
providing the operator with enhanced functionality
such as quick homing, and virtual set trimming.

Free-D
3D Camera Tracking System
8 axes of motion tracking
All virtual studio systems must
know the precise position
and orientation of each studio
camera in order to render a
virtual set from exactly the right
viewpoint. Free-D is a unique
camera tracking system that
uses an advanced image
analysis technique to measure
the position of a camera.
As the system does not require
any physical mechanical
sensors, the camera can be
used on traditional pedestals,
operated handheld or mounted
on a crane.
The Free-D system, uses a number of passive
coded targets placed in the studio lighting
grid. The targets are constantly illuminated
and viewed by a small CCD camera mounted
on the studio cameras. Each target is uniquely
identified by a circular bar code and the use
50
Virtual Tracking
of narrow band LEDs and retro-reflective
material ensures a sufficient number remain
visible under normal studio lighting conditions.
The image from the tracking camera is
processed by a Free-D unit to calculate the
exact position and orientation of the studio
camera. This is done by real time analysis
of the image to identify each target. Knowing
the physical location of the targets, Free-D
calculates the position of the camera to a very
high accuracy. The zoom and focus axes are
monitored by high resolution optical sensors
mounted on the lens. This data is combined
with the video from the small camera CCD
as ancillary data.
The Free-D processor then calculates the
Pan, Tilt, Roll, X, Y, Height, Zoom and Focus
parameters to accurately pin-point the
studio camera position.
The complete data package is transmitted
via a high speed serial data link to the 3D VR
system. The protocol for this link is based on
the Vinten Radamec Serial Position Interface
protocol already supported by 3D virtual
studio system suppliers.
Operations and Advantages
+ Measurement of the camera position
to better than 1mm and orientation
to 0.010˚ ensuring precise matching
of the real and virtual worlds
+ Operation with a wide variety of
camera supports including manual
pedestals, cranes and even hand
held cameras
+ Consistent smooth tracking even
when moving between real and virtual
areas in a studio
+ No in-vision pattern interfering with
the chroma-key process, enabling
shadow and reflection effects to be
more easily created
+ No need for any additional sensing
mechanisms to achieve consistent
360˚ tracking
+ Unrestricted movement of multiple
cameras even in large studios,
including full 360˚ pans
+ No restriction on depth of field of the
studio lens, allowing normal lens
aperture and studio lighting conditions
