Description
Join Jon for a special conversation with PTZOptics Head of Product, Geoff Robinson, about the engineering behind the new Rise 4K and the ongoing evolution of PTZOptics technology.
We discuss how the product development does not stop when a camera ships. Geoff shares how a software-defined approach pairs with powerful hardware for continuous innovation that adds new features, enhances performance and expands capabilities long after deployment so the technology adapts to changing production workflows and keeps getting better over time.
Discover how this philosophy shaped Rise 4K, from broadcast-level imaging and connectivity to a software and update strategy designed to help future-proof your investment. Learn more: https://ptzoptics.com/rise4k
