CyanView Offers Solutions for Camera Shading and Control

With various updates and new developments, CyanView now offers solutions for camera shading and camera control including remote connectivity!

Overall, CyanView solutions fall into 3 main use cases:

Specialty cameras on broadcast productions

This includes the integration of “special” cameras into otherwise conventional productions. Examples include mini-cams, PTZ cameras and wireless cameras, all of which are in regular demand by production teams around the world.

Small Productions

The compact and versatile CyanView system is useful for smaller fly-away/”OB in a box”-type productions for camera tally and shading. A single RCP controls camcorders, D-cinema cameras or PTZ cameras.

Remote Production

Thanks to a completely distributed architecture, extend main camera control and specialty cameras to remote productions via internet and cellular networks.CyanView_UseCase_Overview_TEVIOS

Shade & Match IO Industries Cameras with CyanView Ci0

CyanView makes it possible to shade and match speciality cameras, such as those by IO Industries, with their Cy-Ci0.

Cy-Ci0 is a PoE camera interface module. Designed to solve the issues associated with using specialty cameras (cabling, incompatible equipment, lack of connections), CiO utilizes a single IP connection to power and control small cameras directly.

The IO Industries 4KSDI-Mini is the perfect example of this type of compact, one-piece camera. The 4KSDI-Mini is a 12G-SDI HDR camera with 12G/6G/3G/HD-SDI output formats. It has a 4K/UHD output or a scaled 2K/HD output.

RCP Camera Shading by CyanView Explained

The CyanView RCP remote panel allows for shading of everything from specialty cameras (mini-cameras, PTZ, robotic heads, slow motion) and camcorders to remote production over the Internet.

The RCP is a multi-camera control panel providing shading over most types and brands of broadcast cameras. Setup and operations are both high-quality and efficient. Instantly access most camera settings with a touchscreen and physical knobs to effectively match any number of cameras.

In addition to camera control, the RCP controls routers (automatic preview switching), color correctors (standalone or combined devices), router panels (following camera selected on monitor) and joysticks (PTZ and pan & tilt heads). All CyanView solutions integrate in order to provide tally, wireless, wi-fi, remote production , pan-tilt heads and gimbals control, motorized lenses, etc.

To summarize, RCP’s main features include:

  • Shading of any brand & model of camera
  • One RCP controls any number of cameras
  • Direct access to main camera settings
  • Internal & external tally support
  • Integrated shading of external color correctors
  • Integrated control of external lenses, pan-tilt heads and gimbals
  • PoE and all IP workflow
  • Plug-and-play
  • Frame to fit in OB/MU video stations

Control cameras over internet & 4G/LTE with the CyanView RiO

The CyanView RiO (Remote IO) allows users to control cameras remotely over the internet or 4G/LTE and is the perfect companion for Bonded Cellular transmission.

While providing multi-camera remote production shading, the RiO works both wired and wirelessly. RiO is configurable as a regular CI0 camera interface on local networks. Assuming the LAN has latency, the RiO working mode is configurable over LAN in order to get any camera protocol to work over any latency.

With built-in camera control protocols, the camera connection stays stable no matter the Wi-Fi network conditions and latency. Once an internet connection is established, the RCP and RiO connect. Plus it’s plug and play, thanks to the Cloud Relay. When connecting over cellular data, some bonding video systems provide IP Tunnels or internet access points that can be utilized to link the RCP and RiO. It is also possible to add a 4G USB dongle to get internet access independently.

Remote shading helps when coverage requires multiple cameras or when operators need assistance. Thanks to RiO, users control cameras as well as other equipment remotely. When it comes to tally, RiO sends tally information directly into the viewfinder. Another option is to wire a small external LED in the viewfinder.
