On 9 February, AJA Video Systems announced RovoCam, the company s first compact block camera for industrial, corporate, security, ProAV and broadcast applications. Striking UltraHD and HD imagery is captured with superior Sony optics with built-in 12x optical and up to 20x zoom with Sony Super Resolution Zoom. RovoCam has an integrated HDBaseT interface supporting uncompressed video, power, stereo audio and RS-232 control over a single CAT 5e/6 cable running at lengths of up to 100 metres. Delivering this much functionality and power with single cable connectivity dramatically simplifies installation, camera setup and footprint requirements.
RovoCam is built around Sony s 4K FCB-ER8300 Functional Camera Block featuring the back illuminated CMOS sensor technology and Sony image processing for excellent performance. Reliable, practical and compactly encased in rugged and durable aluminum, RovoCam s small and light form factor allows simple mounting in a wide range of scenarios. RovoRx-HDMI, the companion receiver unit, offers the simplest integration for RovoCam with an HDMI output, and all video/audio signals, power, and control over HDBaseT. RovoCam is also compatible with select third party receivers.
Sony is proud to have collaborated with AJA on their innovative new RovoCam system development using the 4K FCB-ER8300 Functional Camera Block. We anticipate RovoCam will find homes in many ancillary video capture applications within the broadcast, content creation, security, corporate campus, and remote learning vertical markets, commented John Monti, director, Sony Visual Imaging Solutions.
AJA has always been known for supporting open standards with highly functional, flexible and reliable technologies, and the release of RovoCam continues this trend. Marrying our HDBaseT interface technology with Sony s compact 4K camera delivers incredibly powerful camera acquisition with very simple single cable setup and operation, said Nick Rashby, president, AJA Video Systems. We ve partnered closely with Sony for many years and RovoCam comes as the latest in a long line of collaborations with them.
