AI enabled surveillance cameras provide protection to people and infrastructure, and productivity insights for retailers, manufacturers, and transport and city planners. Increasing resolution and additional sensing modalities are enabling cameras to see and hear more, with greater clarity, and in any condition. The PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) camera is often used in scenarios where a large area must be monitored. Embedded analytics can automatically detect, categorise and rapidly target an event, before smoothly tracking and recording movement, while alerting an operator to the unusual activity.
Stepper motors are often the preferred technology. While initial cost and hardware design complexity is lower than the equivalent BLDC, there are challenges to overcome when the application demands noiseless, rapid transitions to new target positions, and then smooth, continuous, variable speed tracking to maximise the quality of the captured video and images.
This webinar will discuss some of the challenges facing designers of the motion control subsystem. It will introduce ADI Trinamics technology as an example of how motion artefacts can be overcome while still simplifying system level design.
Attendees will learn about:
- Motion control artefacts and design challenges that can impact the performance of a PTZ camera.
- How Trinamic hardware-based motion controllers can help overcome these concerns while accelerating system design; and
- Additional design requirements and recommendations when powering these cameras through POE.
