Manage and automate PTZ cameras, as well as TriCaster, vMix, Atem...

PTZJoy Studio Controller allows you to add a professional quality joystick controller or multiple joysticks to your system. You will have simultaneous Pan-Tilt-Zoom control with no latency and the ability to program the joystick buttons to your liking - switch between cameras, call on presets, control Focus and Iris, call Macros, control TriCaster, vMix, and Atem switchers, and do tons of other things. The PTZJoy Controller App is a perfect replacement for a bulky and ineffective hardware controller because it can do everything better and provide a lot of extra features and automation tools

You can also use the on-screen Virtual Joystick, our revolutionary Mouse joystick, directional control buttons, or Keyboard shortcuts to precisely control your cameras. You can control your cameras from anywhere using another PTZJoy Controller on another computer or any device with a Web Browser. PTZJoy on your main computer becomes a gateway so the cameras can be controlled over LAN, WI-FI, or WAN with no individual IP addresses needed. They will be just Cam1, Cam2, Cam3, etc. The included API tool allows other hardware or software devices (like Stream Deck or Companion) to access PTZ Camera controls by sending HTTP Requests to PTZJoy

Along with using internal camera presets, PTZJoy Studio Controller also stores camera settings externally in the software that allows you to select how fast the camera will move between preset positions. The preset buttons are fully customizable tiles so you can use your own graphics or images as background. The Multi-Cam Direct Control Panel allows preset management of selected cameras directly. Our PTZPad is a Visual Preset Control Panel that is designed to simplify the logistics of preset switching. PTZPad allows you to create a visual camera preset layout for one-click preset recall. It gives you immediate visual access to your camera positions and preset locations so you can SEE exactly what preset each camera is going to next, instead of having to remember presets by number or name. You can replace the background of the Panel for each camera or use the PTZLayer feature to make the panel see-through, so the PTZPad window can be layered on top of any live video streaming window, like VLC Player or NDI Studio Monitor to achieve live video background. The built-in Video Monitor allows you to use any USB Webcam, Video Grabber, or a UVC camera for live video background directly in the PTZPad Panel

Camera management can be automated with AutoPan, PresetScan, and Macros.
AutoPan allows you to move a specific camera left and right on a cycle at a specified interval with desired speed.
PresetScan allows you to move a specific camera between presets at a specified interval.
Macros will allow you to create any sequence of commands to any device including PTZ cameras in your setup. You can attach multiple commands to each camera switching button - change the preview input on your switcher, turn tally light on/off, change Soft or Slow mode, etc

In addition, camera management can be automated with Task Scheduler, Timeline Task Player, and Camera Tracer.
Task Scheduler allows you to schedule tasks for your cameras to complete at a defined time.
Timeline Task Player allows you to create a timeline of complicated tasks for your cameras to complete.
Camera Tracer allows you to record and replay the camera movements as presets

You can start PTZJoy with Windows as well as run it in the background with features like USB Joystick support, so the Joystick control is instantly available when you start your computer or production system. If PTZJoy is installed on a TriCaster system, it is loaded along with TriCaster Software when TriCaster starts
