Adamo JR 12X-30X 1080P HDMI/SDI/Dante/NDI PTZ Camera

The BZBGEAR BG-ADAMO-JRND12X is a PTZ camera with 12X-30X zoom, HDMI/SDI/Dante/NDI technology and impressive features for live streaming applications.

From the Manufacturer:

The BG-ADAMO-JR is a brand-new Full HD PTZ camera with 3 types of lenses available: 12X optical zoom with 70.3 FOV, 20X optical zoom with 60.04 FOV, and 30X optical zoom with 58.1 FOV. It features smooth PTZ functions, advanced image processing features and flexible connection options. The BG-ADAMO-JR also provides support for NDI|HX3 with the BG-ADAMO-JRND model and Dante AV-H with the BG-ADAMO-JRDA model.

Advanced Visual Performance: With the high quality 1/2.8-inch SONY CMOS image sensor, the resolution of this camera can get up to 1080@60fps. Additionally, the low noise 1/2.8-inch SONY CMOS guarantees high SNR and the advanced 3D noise reduction technology further reduces the noise while ensuring pristine image clarity. The advanced ISP processing technology and algorithms also allow the camera to deliver true-to-life image quality for the most natural and accurate viewing experiences.

Optical Zoom

The BG-ADAMO-JR offers three different optical zoom lenses that users can choose from: 12X optical zoom with 70.3 viewing angle, 20X optical zoom with 60.04 viewing angle and 30X optical zoom with 58.1 viewing angle.

Flexible Connections

The BG-ADAMO-JR supports HDMI, SDI, USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and LAN connections. It also supports IP streaming, offering flexible workflow options for users.

Smooth Video and Audio Processing

The BG-ADAMO-JR offers a smooth and impressively clear viewing experience. It uses advanced video and audio compression techniques to ensure the best quality content. Additionally, advanced auto focus technology allows the camera to autofocus stably, swiftly, and precisely.

What is NDI?

Network Device Interface (NDI) is a high performance AV over IP standard that allows anyone to use real time, ultra low latency video on existing IP video networks. The NDI open protocol enables professionals to share video through a local area network (LAN) with video-compatible devices. With a single ethernet cable connection, professionals can merge all stages of production from start to finish. That way, all production tasks and processes will be united, so accomplishing a creative vision will be simple. With the NDI 5.5 tool-kit, users will also be able to connect any audio device as an NDI source with NDI’s Audio Direct tool. This adds audio over IP to NDI’s revolution.

What is NDI|HX3?

NDI|HX3 is an updated version of the HX2 standard. The difference is, HX3 provides a better image quality and lower latency than HX2. NDI|HX3 also uses slightly more bandwidth than NDI|HX2, but the increase in bandwidth is not significant enough to be an issue. There are a limited amount of NDI|HX3 compliant devices due to a hardware limitation most NDI|HX2 compliant devices have. Overall, NDI|HX3 is the latest update to the standard and offers the best features.

NDI Toolkit

The NDI toolkit provides a collection of tools and plugins for NDI (Network Device Interface) video and audio streams. It includes tools for monitoring and displaying NDI video sources, sending test patterns for connectivity and calibration, analyzing network performance, routing NDI sources, integrating audio through plugins, facilitating secure remote connections, extending NDI streams beyond local networks, and offering a comprehensive suite for setup, testing, and management of NDI streams in diverse workflows.

What is Dante AV-H?

Dante stands for digital audio network through ethernet. Dante AV-H by Audinate is one of the leading network based production standards in the AV over IP space. Dante AV-H technology will enable users to stream their camera footage over a local area network with a single ethernet cable. Dante AV-H uses H.26x compression to compress the bandwidth of a camera's video feed to allow it to stream over a local area network with near zero latency. The H.26x compression standard also provides a high image quality up to YUV 4:4:4 and low latency with 100% audio/visual synchronization. For protection of the user's content, Dante AV-H is HDCP compliant.

With Dante AV-H, users will also be able to transmit and receive audio and video over their network. Furthermore, with the Dante controller, control for both audio and video will be unified. Users will then be able to control all sources from one screen.

Auto-Tracking Capabilities

The auto-tracking technology uses the latest human detection AI algorithms to exhibit unparalleled tracking speed and accuracy. This monocular tracking method uses only one camera and one lens to easily detect and capture human forms and moving objects in seconds.

The auto tracking is presented in two modes: Presenter Tracking and Zone Tracking. Presenter Tracking tracks its target everywhere without the need to wear any receiving devices. It has strong locking and anti-interference capabilities giving presenters the flexibility to leave the stage and interact with the audience while continuously being tracked. Zone Tracking can be set to track a specific area providing a clear, smooth representation of what's being shown behind the presenter such as a whiteboard.

Extensive Control Options

RS Communication Protocols: The BG-ADAMO-JR supports RS422 (compatible with RS485) output and RS232 input/output. RS232 supports cascading, making it easy for engineers to operate.

Control Protocols: Support for multiple control protocols include VISCA, PELCO-D, PELCO-P, and auto identification protocol.

Network Protocols: Support for multiple network protocols include ONVIF, GB/T28181, RTSP, RTMP protocols, and supports push mode in RTMP to easily link with streaming media servers. Plus, it supports RTP multicast mode and network full command VISCA control protocols.

Additionally, this full HD PTZ camera will enable users to set up to 255 presets (10 can be set via remote control). BZBGEAR Camera Control Software: BZBGEAR offers a free control software available for Windows, Mac and iOS.

The BG-CONTROL app provides precise manipulation of pan, tilt, zoom, and focus for BZBGEAR PTZ cameras. It features full-screen image previews on iOS devices, image parameter adjustments, and easy preset management for up to 8 cameras. The app also includes customizable camera names, adjustable PTZ speed, and efficient multi-camera preset storage.

Innovative Design

Available in either classic white or black finishes, the chassis of the BG-ADAMO is designed to be as functional and attractive as its formidable feature set. The high-stability substructure provides a solid foundation for the precision lens delivering full HD resolution video at 60fps.
