BirdDog X1 PTZ Camera

The BirdDog X1 is a compact NDI|HX3 PTZ camera aimed at streaming, worship, and hybrid meeting rooms. A Sony 1/2.8-inch CMOS sensor feeds a 20x optical zoom (5.5 to 110mm) and delivers 1080p at up to 60fps. AI auto-framing keeps a presenter centered without an operator, and a daylight-visible halo tally ring around the lens tells the room and the talent when the camera is live.

Connections cover the bases: an HDMI output, a USB/UVC output with its own resolution that plugs straight into Zoom, Teams, and similar apps, plus a 100M Ethernet port with PoE (802.3af) that carries NDI|HX2/HX3, SRT, RTSP, and RTMP on one cable. Built-in Wi-Fi 5 adds a wireless path, an E-Ink display labels the camera at a glance, and the head pans 175 degrees each way and tilts from -90 to +90 degrees. This white version blends into bright sets and light rooms, runs on PoE or 12V DC, and ships with an IR remote.
