For schools, universities, and businesses, that means finding solutions that are intelligent, reliable, and simple to manage long-term.

The Lumens VC-TR60A Auto Tracking Camera is designed specifically for these environments, combining AI-powered presenter tracking, dual-camera imaging, and flexible integration options into a single platform.

Intelligent Presenter Tracking Without Complex Setup

Traditional voice-tracking camera systems can often involve external microphone arrays, DSP programming, and extensive PTZ preset configuration.

The VC-TR60A takes a more streamlined approach.

The camera includes integrated directional sound sensors that detect where speech is coming from within the room. Using AI-based voice and image recognition, the system can identify active speakers and automatically track them throughout the space.

For schools and businesses, this can help simplify deployment while still delivering intelligent presenter tracking for:

• Classrooms
• Lecture spaces
• Meeting rooms
• Training environments
• Hybrid collaboration spaces

The system also supports reference audio input, helping the camera ignore audio coming from conferencing speakers during video calls. This improves tracking reliability during hybrid meetings by focusing only on participants physically present in the room.

Dual-Lens Design for More Engaging Hybrid Experiences

One of the most unique aspects of the VC-TR60A is its dual-lens design.

Instead of relying on a single PTZ camera, the VC-TR60A combines:

• A panoramic camera for full-room visibility
• A PTZ camera for close-up presenter tracking

This allows both wide-angle and close-up video feeds to be output simultaneously.

In education spaces, this helps remote students maintain visibility of both the teacher and the classroom environment. In meeting rooms, it creates a more natural experience for remote attendees by providing better room context during discussions and presentations.

The camera also supports picture-in-picture functionality, allowing both perspectives to be displayed together through HDMI and USB outputs.

Built for Hybrid Learning and Collaboration

The VC-TR60A is designed to integrate easily into modern AV and unified communications environments.

Key features include:

• 4K resolution at up to 60fps
• 12x optical zoom
• HDMI, USB, Ethernet, and IP streaming outputs
• RTSP, RTMP, RTMPS, and SRT streaming support
• PoE+ support for simplified installation
• Microsoft Teams certification

This flexibility makes the camera suitable for a wide range of applications including lecture capture, hybrid classrooms, Microsoft Teams Rooms, training facilities, and live streaming environments.

Scalable for Larger Spaces

While the VC-TR60A works effectively as a standalone solution, it can also scale into larger multi-camera environments.

Using the Lumens OIP-60D platform, multiple Lumens cameras can work together within the same room.

The system can automatically switch between cameras based on active speaker detection, helping create smoother transitions without extensive manual programming.

For larger classrooms, conference spaces, and training rooms, this provides a more scalable approach to automated presenter tracking.

Integration with Professional Audio Systems

For more advanced spaces, the VC-TR60A can also integrate with the Lumens CamConnect Pro platform.

CamConnect Pro supports integration with professional conferencing and microphone systems from manufacturers including:

• Shure
• Yamaha
• Audio-Technica
• Nureva
• Televic

Rather than relying purely on static PTZ presets, the platform can use real-time microphone coordinate data to help direct cameras toward active speakers.

When paired with the Lumens BC-200 Box Camera, the system can further improve speaker positioning and tracking flexibility in dynamic spaces where layouts or presenter positions may regularly change.

A Practical Approach to Modern AV

As hybrid learning and collaboration continue evolving, organisations are increasingly looking for AV solutions that are flexible, scalable, and easy to manage.

The VC-TR60A reflects that shift by combining AI-powered tracking, dual-camera functionality, and integration flexibility into a system designed for real-world classrooms and meeting spaces — without requiring overly complicated workflows.

For schools, universities, and businesses looking to improve hybrid communication and presenter tracking, the VC-TR60A offers a practical and modern solution.

Science is an amazing and broad subject and central to our understanding of the world around us. From how plants turn light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis, to how mitochondria act as the battery in our cells.

To really understand how things work, you can just read a book. You need to learn how to apply it in experimentation.

And the many and varied experiments and equipment you need can pose a special challenge to an effective remote learning environment.

With the current pandemic raging around the world; and Australians being warned to stay in their homes, it looks likely that students will be studying remotely next term.

DIB Audiovisual has been a pioneer in the design, installation and service of remote learning environments, since 2014.

With new technology, you can now dramatically improve the delivery of your science lessons to remote students.

The Lumens LC200 recorder, for example, is an amazing product that allows the user to capture and record multiple video sources, and livestream to three separate sites at the same time.

Partnered with high quality cameras and microphones, specifically designed for your space, and your science lessons can be brought to life. Imagine students being able to watch the teacher, plus the outside and inside of a microscope at the same time.

Call DIB Audiovisual now, and we can get started on the design of a system to support your science lessons.

We’re looking forward to helping you teach the next generation of Australian Scientists at your school.
