CONVRG is a groundbreaking software add-on that seamlessly brings automated PTZ cameras into the dynamic world of real-time tracking.
CONVRG Camera Tracking Software allows productions to utilize PTZ cameras to autonomously follow talent and/or objects in real-time. This is thanks to it’s native connection to BlackTrax, CAST’s real-time tracking system. This creates the benefit of repeatability in your shots, promising a reliable and scripted end-product each time that is not contingent on a manual operator.
