This golden autumn September marks the full cutover of legacy and new systems and official commissioning of the Han-Tibetan Bilingual Digital HD Radio & TV Production and Broadcasting Center of Qinghai Radio and Television Station. This milestone signals that news production and broadcasting at Qinghai Radio and Television has entered a brand-new phase of HD, intelligent and bilingual collaborative workflow.

Gension has deployed a complete set of intelligent camera positioning equipment including robotic jibs and remote control pan-tilt heads for the two brand-new news studios, helping Qinghai Radio and Television build a fully closed-loop production and broadcasting system for Han-Tibetan bilingual content, and develop a top-tier mainstream media platform for publicity in Tibetan regions nationwide.

Dual Units In Place | Intelligent Camera Combinations for Two Studios Empower Diverse Han-Tibetan Bilingual Program Creation

Chinese broadcast studio

Tibetan Studio

Both the Chinese news studio and Tibetan news studio are equipped with Gension robotic jib systems paired with remote pan-tilt heads integrated with teleprompters. The multi-device setup maximises the value of studio space, enriches the visual language for news, interviews and feature programmes, and enhances the sense of presence and visual impact of productions.

Chinese News Studio: Robotic Jib + Remote Pan-Tilt Head with Integrated Teleprompter

This setup supports live news broadcasts and political interview recordings for flagship programmes including Qinghai News Network and Midday 360°. The robotic jib delivers flexible multi-angle moving shots; the matching remote pan-tilt head acts as the primary fixed camera for news anchors, catering to long-duration on-camera presentation.

Tibetan News Studio: Robotic Jib + Remote Pan-Tilt Head with Integrated Teleprompter

This configuration mainly serves flagship programmes and feature reports for Amdo Tibetan TV. The robotic jib produces wide establishing shots and narrative motion sequences; the remote pan-tilt head fits regular broadcast scenarios such as Tibetan news anchoring and feature interviews.

Core Technical Highlights | Redefining Studio News Production Experience on the Plateau

1. High-precision Sensing and Electronic Levelling System to Guarantee Precise and Stable Broadcast Framing

The robotic jib is fitted with high-precision absolute optical encoders to eliminate accumulated positional error. High-precision electronic inclinometer systems are built into pan-tilt heads and support columns, paired with a circular touchscreen that graphically displays the levelling status of every axis.

2. Intelligent Automatic Operation, Multi-end Control and Multi-trajectory Preset Support

The equipment supports dual remote control via local control panel and PC software for automated shooting. Multiple programme profiles, presets and motion trajectories can be stored for one-click recall of shot sequences. Centralised multi-camera management is available, with compatibility for third-party central control software, data backup and remote system upgrade.

3. 6-sector Radar Multi-layer Anti-collision Protection, Four Safeguard Mechanisms for Secure Live Broadcast

Equipped with a full-coverage 6-sector radar anti-collision module to monitor the entire jib arm and pan-tilt assembly. Detection range and angle can be customised. Distance-triggered emergency stop activates during movement. Together with software limit detection, torque monitoring and physical emergency stop buttons, four layers of protection secure stable equipment operation.

4. AI Human Face Tracking to Reduce Camera Operator Workload

Built-in AI face tracking system locks onto anchors in real time. It maintains the subject within the pre-set framing even when the anchor turns, moves up and down, or amid multi-person interference on set. It greatly eases operational pressure during live production, ideal for standing news presentation and walk-and-talk interviews.

5. Seamless Manual Emergency Mode with Uninterrupted Virtual Tracking Data Output

The system supports traditional joystick manual shooting, with one-click switching between manual and automatic modes. Camera operators can select automated shooting for certain programme formats, or switch to manual control to take over with familiar conventional operation. The mode suits a wide range of shooting scenarios. Virtual tracking data output remains continuous during mode transition.

6. Complete Lens Power Supply and Control, Compatible with Mainstream Studio Lenses

The pan-tilt head provides adjustable DC 5~36V output to power camera peripherals directly. Single-cable compatibility with full-servo Canon and Fujinon lenses enables direct access to native lens data, with controllable zoom, focus and iris, broadening the range of studio camera lens options.

7. Open Virtual Tracking Protocol, Compatible with Dominant Virtual Production Platforms

A built-in virtual tracking module outputs standard FreeD protocol over serial port or UDP Ethernet. It integrates seamlessly with mainstream domestic and international virtual systems, fully supporting VR/AR/MR/XR workflows and reserving sufficient technical expansion space for future virtual news production upgrades within the studio.

8. Multi-camera Central Control from the Production Gallery, Adapted for Rotating Bilingual Programme Schedules

All robotic jibs and remote pan-tilt heads connect uniformly to control panels in the production gallery for centralised device management. One control system handles jib movement, pan-tilt operation, zoom, focus and preset recall. It streamlines studio workflows, reduces on-site staffing requirements, improves broadcast efficiency and lowers the risk of human error.
