LAIA Technologies North America will be showing three major PTZ camera lines for U.S. customers at its ISE 2025 booth this week. The LAIA booth (1D350) is sure to grab lots of attention in Barcelona during the global trade event, set for Feb. 4-7.
ISE is the largest pro AV trade show in the world, and the event features major announcements from the top AV providers. Among those announcements: the AI-enabled cameras from LAIA that feature industry breakthroughs that enable smoother auto-tracking and easier system integration into AV ecosystems without the need for expensive hardware or software add-ons or custom programming.
“The specs of our cameras are compelling,” Gary Plavin, president, LAIA Technologies North America, says of the company and its technology. “The smoothness of the auto-tracking is immediately evident. But even more compelling is our business case: how much you’ll save in integration costs — compared to what you thought you needed — to get the system up and running flawlessly. We let you eliminate a lot of the spiraling commissioning costs around PTZ camera set-up and deployment.”
The three PTZ camera lines from LAIA now available to American customers are the C-Pro, Broadcaster, and Broadcaster Pro.
Anchoring the LAIA C-Pro camera line is the 4K AI model, a proven performer with its wide system compatibility thanks to its multiple connection interfaces and control protocols. The real-time AI-based tracking of the speaker/presenter is enhanced with its unique ISP processing technology and algorithms, and its 12X optical zoom. It’s a great solution for conferences in medium and large rooms. In addition, the impressive 4K/30fps UHD image offered by its 1/2.8-inch CMOS sensor of up to 60fps together with its autofocus technology performs flawlessly with moving presenters.
The Broadcaster line: anchoring this lineup is the LAIA Broadcaster 4K AI, with a variety of interfaces that makes it one of the best videoconferencing cameras on the market. Broadcaster 4K AI is perfect for large videoconferencing rooms, with a resolution of 4K/30fps. And it’s a NDI (HX2) licensed camera with unique PTZ design. It’s the ideal camera for live broadcasts from large rooms such as auditoriums, where maximum image quality, mobility and shot adaptation is necessary and essential for the flexibility provided by its 300X hybrid zoom.
And new for the market this year: LAIA is introducing the new family of Broadcaster Pro cameras, designed to meet the growing technical needs in high-demand professional applications, such as corporate AV broadcast facilities, higher education facilities, TV production rooms, auditoriums, houses of worship, judicial facilities, and sports arenas. All cameras in Laia’s Broadcaster Pro family incorporate a powerful 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor offering 4K resolution at 60 fps and 25x optical zoom. Connectivity features multiple interfaces such as HDMI, DUAL 12G-SDI / 3G-SDI, USB 3.0 and LAN. The Broadcaster Pro range includes NDI or Dante licenses depending on the model. This makes the range stand out for its low latency and superior image quality, ensuring minimum delay and uninterrupted transmission.
Key to LAIA’s value proposition for all camera offerings: LAIA’s game-changing AICC (AI Cam Control) software for much easier integration for speaker tracking, multi-image layout control and integrating logos on your outputs; and the new IAVS (Intelligent Audio Visual Systems) software that leverages advanced API’s to allow the seamless operation of LAIA cameras with other AV system components such as third-party beamforming mics from Nureva, Shure and Sennheiser — for audio tracking and more. The result: reduced integration costs, without sacrificing top-level functionality.
Executives and engineers from LAIA Technologies North America will be showing their PTZ camera lines at the LAIA booth (1D350) at the ISE 2025 trade show. Visit them in Barcelona, Feb. 4-7.
