With so many exhibitors offering cutting-edge technology for live streaming and video production, it can be difficult to decide which products to focus on and explore. Luckily, we’ve done the hard work for you and have rounded up the top 10 must-see live streaming and video production technologies at CES this year. 

1) PTZOptics ( BOOTH: 19183): PTZOptics cameras are ideal for small-scale webcasting applications such as live streams from classrooms, boardrooms, or conference halls. PTZOptics provides ready-made packages that come complete with everything necessary to get started quickly with remote broadcasting applications. 

This year PTZOptics will be showing off the latest PTZOptics Move 4K auto-tracking cameras. The Move 4K cameras set a new standard for robotically controllable pan, tilt and zoom cameras with advanced computer vision capabilities built-in for automatic subject tracking and locking in complex environments. PTZOptics will be showing off the Move 4K cameras in use with NDI, HDMI, 3G-SDI, and USB connectivity. 

PTZOptics will also be showing the new Studio Pro camera which is an all-in-one video communications camera with the quality of a DSLR camera but the simplicity of use of a webcam. The Studio Pro is ideal for work-from-home offices and small creator studios that require an affordable yet high-quality video camera with multiple connection options such as HDMI, USB, and NDI to grow with the modern video requirements of users around the world.
