PTZ Cameras: Maximum overview, detail and new controls

At a time when security, efficiency, and flexibility are key, Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) cameras are becoming a universal tool for modern surveillance systems. Thanks to their ability to pan, tilt, and zoom in real time, they provide wide coverage with detailed insight – whether for city surveillance, logistics areas, traffic hubs, or live broadcasts.

Usage across industries

Events and live streaming

Capture every key moment from the best possible angle with wide coverage and precise zoom—whether it’s a concert or a sporting event.

Logistics Centers

Monitor the movement of people, vehicles, and goods to ensure safety and smooth operational processes.

Traffic overview

Monitor traffic and let PTZ cameras detect violations, track, and identify vehicles in real time through integration with License Plate Recognition (LPR) technology.

City Surveillance

Ensure continuous monitoring of public spaces using panoramic and PTZ cameras. Minimize blind spots and obtain detailed recordings of suspicious behavior.

Intelligent security and analytics

Modern PTZ cameras are more than just surveillance tools. With advanced analytics and AI, they can automatically detect and classify people or vehicles, send alerts, or monitor suspicious objects.

For example, when a perimeter breach occurs, the camera can automatically zoom in on the object, track it, and trigger an alarm. Combined with radar, lighting, and audio units, this creates a comprehensive camera system that not only responds but also actively deters potential threats.

Simple and intuitive control

Beyond their technology, PTZ cameras are remarkably easy to operate using IP controllers and AI-based automatic tracking.

Whether you’re reviewing security footage, streaming a concert, or monitoring traffic, PTZ cameras allow smooth transitions between angles, continuous object tracking, and instant response.

Cutting-edge technology for detailed live view

Current models, like the AXIS Q6355-LE or AXIS P5676-LE , offer sharp focus, 30× optical zoom, and true-to-life color images even at night, thanks to Lightfinder technology. Advanced features like Autotracking 2 and Motion Detection enable automatic zooming and tracking of moving objects.

Integration with AXIS Q6300-E multi-camera housings provides full 360° coverage with a single power and data connection—an efficient and cost-effective solution.

New PTZ control interface in our mobile app

We’ve recently improved the control interface for Axis cameras to make everything more intuitive and centralized. Users can manage PTZ cameras directly from the live view. They have precise control over tilt and rotation, as well as quick return-to-home functionality. Multiple preset positions can be created, saving time and allowing users to switch between views with a single click.

This improvement is now also available in our mobile app, meaning you can easily control your Axis cameras – whether you’re at your desk or on the go. You have full control from anywhere, anytime, with minimal delay.
