The RoboShot Elite is a series of PTZ cameras for higher education, broadcast and corporate applications. Available in 12x and 30x zoom and offered in five variants: HDBT, HDMI, SDI, CAT-5 and USB, and PoE+, the cameras use a 1/2.5 Type Exmor R generation CMOS image sensor to deliver 8.5 megapixels of 1080p/60 video.
