BR Remote developed and integrated a large IP-based remote camera system using Proteân remote heads and Multi Function Controllers.  It was a challenge, especially using Blackmagic Design cameras and interfacing with a 3rd party touch screen controller. Equipment from several companies from several countries was integrated to work together. USA, Finland, Denmark, France, Germany and UK all supplying various parts of the system. BR Remote made several visits to Germany, France and Finland to liaise as consultants with contributors and ensure that our equipment interfaced properly. This interfacing was both mechanical, electronic and in software and data conversion.

We also added other features;

  • Remote tally lights

  • Routing of BMD SDI control to cameras

  • Additional circuits, software and electronics within the remote heads

  • Integrating lens drive from BMD to the lens via the system

  • Designed and built a dead-man’s switch

  • Consulants in Mechanical and Data integration of the whole system.
