Iris unifies PTZ control

Posted on Jan 29, 2026 by Pro Moviemaker

Iris, a cloud platform that transforms almost any PTZ camera into an intelligent, remotely operated production tool complete with AI automation, universal control and real-time collaboration has been launched

The Iris system is a universal, browser-based control which connects to more than 300 PTZ cameras, removing the need for hardware controllers or dedicated crews. For users with Iris-enabled cameras, the platform integrates directly into the camera firmware, connecting instantly to the cloud without adapters, converters or complex networking.

AI automation is at the heart of the platform, offering intelligent tracking, real-time framing and automated adjustments to handle the repetitive technical work. It has support from leading manufacturers including Birddog, Lumens, Marshall and Z Cam.
