Movement tools

Click anywhere to center your shot, or pan, tilt, and zoom with proportional, position-sensitive speed.

Framing tools

Define your shot and Iris automatically frames the camera — making professional composition fast and easy.

Presets

Save both position and image presets — anchor one-shot, two-shot, cross and wide, plus the exposure and color settings that go with them. Any operator recalls the show's best looks from a labelled key.

Color grading

Exposure, white balance and color — shaded in real time and saved per show, studio and light. The mismatched camera stops being the one everyone notices.

PRE-AIR CHECKS

Know every camera is ready before you're on air.

Go live knowing every camera is readyMonitor every feed, preset, and image setting before the show starts — so you can catch problems before your audience ever sees them.

Spot issues before they become problemsSee source quality, resolution, bitrate, and FPS at a glance, with instant warnings when a feed drops or degrades.

Check Before You Go Live

REMOTE PRODUCTION

Drive any venue from your control room.

Real-time remote controlNetwork-native control with sub-300ms latency — built for REMI and distributed production.

Multi-operator sessionsShader, PTZ op and TD work the same fleet at once — grant access per show or 24/7.

CUSTOMERS

Trusted by broadcast engineers.

See how broadcast and production organizations use Iris as the camera control layer in their stack.

We evaluated Iris alongside robotic systems costing ten times more. It won on flexibility — any camera, any venue, controlled from our broadcast center.

James T.Director of Engineering

32 PTZ · regional sports network

Shading and position presets sync across every camera, so our robos match the manned cameras shot for shot.

Elena V.Vision Engineer

14 robos · news studio

We standardized camera control across hundreds of productions a year. Iris deploys the same at every venue — no per-site hardware.

Questions engineering teams ask before trying Iris.

Does Iris work with the cameras we already own?

Yes. Iris supports mixed PTZ camera fleets across major brands and models — 400+ supported cameras across the protocols above.

Does Iris integrate with our existing infrastructure?

Yes. Iris ingests your video sources and outputs NDI, SRT and RTMP — it works alongside your switchers, routers and encoders rather than replacing them.

Does Iris work with physical controllers?

Yes. Iris supports controller-based workflows — joysticks, gamepads and Stream Decks — for teams that want tactile camera control.

Does Iris replace our switcher or router?

No. Iris is the dedicated camera control layer in your stack. Switching, routing, graphics and transmission stay exactly where they are.

Is remote control fast enough for live production?

Yes. Iris is built for network-native, real-time control with sub-300ms latency — designed for REMI and distributed production models.

Can Iris help us troubleshoot before air?

Yes. Teams can check camera status, feeds, framing, presets and image settings before going live — and fix issues remotely.
