BirdDog 3 x EYES P200 1080p Full NDI PTZ Camera Kit with PTZ Keyboard (White)

This kit features three white BirdDog EYES P200 1080p Full NDI PTZ Cameras and a portable PTZ keyboard. It is ideal for fast-action sporting events and for wide coverage of events in large spaces. Boasting versatility and universal control, all the bundled gear offers NDI and PoE (Power over Ethernet) support that helps minimize the need for complex cabling and keeps your production neat and streamlined.

BirdDog Eyes P200 1080p Full NDI PTZ Camera (White)

Combining BirdDog`s custom NDI silicon chip, 30x optical zoom, and Sony backlit sensor and image module, the BirdDog Eyes P200, in white, is a full NDI 1080p60 PTZ camera designed for large indoor spaces. Thanks to the fast autofocus and zoom ensured by the true Sony image module, the P200 is highly suitable for catching all the fast action in places such as sporting events. As opposed to other types of NDI such as NDI|HX, which is a compressed variant that reaches 12 Mb/s, the P200 features the visually lossless full NDI variable bit-rate iFrame codec that reaches up to 140 Mb/s at 1080p60.

Simultaneous live SDI, HDMI, and full NDI outputs complete the camera as a comprehensive solution. Between these connections, you can control the Eyes P200 live via your full NDI workflow or integrate RS-422, RS-485, and RS-232 serial control. Also, the optional BirdDog PTZ Keyboard can be used over NDI or over RS-422/RS-232 in SDI mode. The P200 can be powered by Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) or via the included power adapter.

The Eyes P200 also comes with the BirdDog Comms Lite audio intercom software, which supports up to four BirdDog devices. Comms Lite is Windows compatible and offers features such as director push to talk, mute camera operator, auto-detect NDI sources, monitor camera audio, and shortcut to Web console. For a more complete version of the application, an optional upgrade is available to Comms Pro. The camera is also compatible with the optional BirdDog Central software, which helps you decode NDI back to HDMI or SDI.

Central Pro is Windows-compatible and also supports Windows touchscreen capability.

Send Anywhere with Three Clicks

Drive Content to Multiple Screens via Groups

You can instantly drive content to multiple screens via Central Pro by grouping your BirdDog NDI decoders. Gang up 10, 20, or even hundreds of receivers and push the NDI content to your group with just three clicks. To create the groups, simply select any of the BirdDog receivers in your destination windows to assign to a group.

Work with Any Full NDI Source

Central Pro allows you to work with any full NDI source on your network, whether it is a feed from a live BirdDog PTZ camera, a BirdDog encoder, a file playing off a computer, or the output from an NDI-compatible switcher. Any of your NDI sources will show up in Central Pro, and you can push them to your BirdDog Studio NDI or BirdDog Mini to decode the signal back to baseband video.

Easy Monitoring

Central Pro features a large live video preview window that allows you to easily monitor any NDI source. Simply click the list button and select any NDI stream on the network to bring it up in the Program Monitor window.

Touchscreen

BirdDog Comms Application

The BirdDog Comms Application runs on a networked Windows computer or tablet, effectively turning it into a production communication hub. The app previews NDI video signals coming in from compatible NDI hardware. Using the touchscreen-optimized interface lets you easily select a channel or create groups for talkback communication. Additionally, plug in an AJA or Blackmagic video output device for full-quality output of the monitored video signal.

Push-to-Talk

BirdDog Comms fully supports Push-to-Talk (PTT) function. Simply push your call button on any BirdDog headset and talk to the group you have been set up in

Groups

Intuitive group management ensures everyone is on the right channel. BirdDog Comms makes it super easy to set up the call groups for clear lines of communication.

BirdDog NDI Multiview Pro Streaming Software

Create up to six multiview streams from up to 96 NDI sources with the NDI Multiview Pro Streaming Software from BirdDog. This software installs on a laptop or computer running Windows 10 or higher and provides a maximum of six windows of 2 x large/8 x small, 2 x 2, 3 x 3, or 4 x 4 grids on your screen. Multiview Pro also enables you to capture full-resolution ISO recordings of any of the NDI sources, limited only by your bandwidth, CPU power, and disk speed/available space.

The input and output streams support up to UHD 4K video and can use 6Mb/s low-bandwidth NDI proxy codecs to make room for multiple streams. The software outputs a single NDI stream and each of the six Multiview streams can be picked up by different receivers. Within each window, you can preview audio levels, tally information, and overlay source labels so you can identify each video source within the grid.
