PTZOptics SimplTrack3

PTZOptics SimplTrack3 is an auto-tracking and auto-framing camera system designed for lecture capture, conference rooms, stage productions, and classroom workflows where one camera needs to follow the presenter without a dedicated camera operator.

The system uses a dual-sensor design, combining a 20x optical zoom camera with a wide-angle reference camera. That gives the SimplTrack3 the ability to track movement up to 55 ft, zoom in at 1080p, and maintain framing while the subject moves through the room.

Why It Helps

In lecture and presentation environments, the camera operator is often the missing piece. SimplTrack3 helps solve that by automatically following the presenter, switching between tracking individuals and framing groups when needed.

The dual-sensor approach is the key advantage. The wide-angle reference camera gives the system awareness of the whole room, while the 20x camera delivers the tighter production shot. That makes it useful for classrooms, training rooms, conferences, and stage events where the presenter moves naturally.
