BG-ADAMO-4K: The Next Generation

Brilliantly designed with exclusive features and a unique form factor,
the BG-ADAMO is unrivaled in its class on the live stream broadcasting market.

BG-ADAMO-4K

BZBGEAR is proud to announce the next generation of PTZ cameras: the BG-ADAMO. Brilliantly designed with exclusive features and a unique form factor, the BG-ADAMO is unrivaled in its class on the live stream broadcasting market. For enhanced audio and video over IP, the BG-ADAMO-4K supports NDI|HX3 with the BG-ADAMO-4KND model and Dante AV-H with the BG-ADAMO-4KDA model. 

This camera also supports SRT, enabling high-quality, low-latency video to be sent reliably over the internet.

Attributes

The BG-ADAMO-4K is loaded with features including a full interface of video connections and immaculate 4K@60Hz resolution. The 12G-SDI connection enables long distance cable runs without compromising image quality. Compose shots ahead of time utilizing up to 255 programable presets, with 10 conveniently accessible using the IR remote. Capable of storing 1 TB of video footage with the Micro SD Card writer, start recording on the fly when other connections are inaccessible.

The lens is designed with an advanced auto-focusing algorithm that promptly snaps into focus with dependable accuracy and stability. The 3D noise reduction technology combined with the low-noise CMOS sensor ensures impeccable image clarity. Choose between the 12x optical zoom lens with an 80.4° wide-angle or the 25x optical zoom lens with a 59° wide-angle.

Packed with an array of video connections including USB 2.0, USB 3.0, LAN, HDMI, and 12G-SDI, the BG-ADAMO-4K boasts unparalleled functionality with sophistication and style. The dual stream USB facilitates concurrent main-stream and sub-stream outputs. While the HDMI, SDI, and USB 2.0 connections are capable of transmitting ptz camera 4K video and audio signals simultaneously.

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. Learn more

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.

Why use Dante AV-H

The integration of Dante AV-H technology in the BG-ADAMO-4KDA offers a range of remarkable advantages. Developed by Audinate, Dante AV-H facilitates seamless video streaming over a single Ethernet cable, ensuring high-quality, low-latency transmission with H.26x compression for exceptional image quality and synchronized audiovisual experience. Its capability to transmit and receive both audio and video over the network simplifies workflows, further enhanced by the unified control provided by the Dante controller. With HDCP compliance for content protection, the BG-ADAMO-4KDA maximizes the potential of Dante AV-H, delivering unparalleled user convenience, top-notch image quality, and streamlined control in a cutting-edge AV solution.

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.

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 4K resolution video at 60fps. Eliminating the need for bulky external accessories, the control arms feature distinctive built-in tally lights that illuminate either green or red with 360-degree visibility.
