Gimbal camera for sports live streaming -KHP415S90

Preface: Topotek's KHP415S90 can solve the problem of traditional sports live streaming. For long-distance and long-term sports events, it is not realistic for an audience to sit in front of a TV or computer for a few hours. Topotek's KHP415S90 can hand over the viewing rights to the audience.

Sports events have a lot of uncertainty, so unlike other programs, live streaming is their main promotion channel. For example, watching a TV drama, live streaming, or recording is not a big problem, and the Spring Festival Gala is also a way to catch up with a certain program and watch recorded broadcasts. But sports events are different because they contain too much uncertainty, so live streaming can satisfy the audience's appetite and also create a lot of suspense. For example, in the World Cup, everyone stays up late to watch the live broadcast, but if they know the results the next day and then watch the recorded broadcast, they lose the meaning of sports events. It's a pity to discard food without taste!

And live streaming of sports events also has different difficulties, such as football and other field competitions, where the difficulty of live streaming is relatively small. This includes track racing, short track rally, etc., which can be summarized. However, there is another type of competition, which has higher uncertainty factors and stronger stimulation, but is very unfriendly to live streaming. These are car rally, car off-road race, road cycling race, etc High competitive events such as triathlon or skiing.

Through comparison, it can also be seen that the subsequent matches are all held in non enclosed areas, with a large span and long duration. Ordinary live streaming is very difficult, and even if it can be successfully broadcasted, the cost is astronomical. It is not realistic to have an audience spend a few hours in front of a TV or computer. Therefore, traditional live streaming mode can basically be concluded that it is not suitable for such non enclosed areas and a new form of live streaming is needed.

 

The KHP415S90 gimbal camera created by Topotek can meet such live streaming needs. That is to say, hand over the channel switching rights to the customer themselves.

Let's take the car rally as a case study to see how to achieve a new live broadcast. Rally is a Chinese translation of Rally in English, also known as "multi day race", and is one of the car road race events. It is a car road race event where participating vehicles reach the sub station targets within the specified average speed, driving route, and time, and complete vehicle inspection and maintenance.

 

This type of racing competition definitely cannot be traditional live streaming, but requires online live streaming. Each team and driver is like a channel, and the audience can selectively watch the situation of any team and driver. In a three-day race, the audience cannot lie directly next to the TV or computer. This live streaming method is to use everyone's fragmented time to better watch the content they want to watch, For example, if you only want to watch a driver's in car video, you can click to enter the live streaming channel of this team to watch their in car video in a timely manner.

 

So how is such a live broadcast achieved? The gimbal cameras, also known as visible light cameras, of Topotek are mainly industrial grade products, which are placed on drones, so they all have independent and complete network systems. Currently, the gimbal cameras of Topotek have a fixed factory IP address. In the LAN state, as long as the ground station (PC or Android) is connected to this IP address through RTSP, a screen can appear.

 

So how to perform the switch mentioned above! In fact, this requires the support of the network. Currently, large-scale events like this have a large number of communication vehicles to facilitate communication and ensure the smooth flow of the network. We have already learned from the above that switching between gimbals can actually be done by switching the IP addresses of the gimbals. This is true for LANs and the internet, but it is only necessary to map the IP addresses.

Firstly, we need to equip each gimbal with a TP-LINK with a power supply, and then connect this TP-LINK through a PC computer. By entering the DOS interface in CMD and entering ipconfig, we can obtain the gateway of TP-LINK. The browser can enter the gateway to enter the TP-LINK backend. After entering the backend, we find the port forwarding and start mapping. We need to map twice, once the port is 544 (TCP), Another mapping is 9003 (UDP), and the mapped intranet IP address is the default intranet IP address of the Topotek gimbal camera

After we have mapped all the gimbals, we can open the ground station software of Topotek Co Creation PC or Android, or other video software through a computer or mobile phone, and input the RTSP code stream. The code stream IP is the external IP of TP-LINK, so that we can successfully connect to the gimbal. If you want to change channels, change the external IP of TP-LINK to switch to the corresponding gimbal page.

After setting up the live streaming environment, we can achieve two types of live streaming. One is similar to CCTV live streaming, where the staff switches and then performs live streaming in the form of screen recording. This method is no different from traditional live streaming, but it only takes longer to broadcast. Another way of live streaming is to establish a live streaming page, where each gimbal is made into a channel, allowing viewers to freely enter the channel to watch the content they want to watch.

Advanced gimbal camera and motion camera KHP415S90

Advanced gimbal camera and motion camera KHP415S90 

KHP415S90 is TOPOTEK (website: http://www.topotek.com ）a recently developed gimbal camera, KHP415S90 is a miniaturized PTZ camera mainly used in drone equipment.

 

KHP415S90 is a dual light 3 axis stabilized small gimbal, with one channel of 8 million pixels and one channel of 2 million pixels. Adopting dual outputs of network IP and HDMI, it has the characteristics of high stability, small size, light weight, and low power consumption; The system supports network RTSP output, and two video streams can be synthesized and output in picture in picture. It supports PIP modes, local TF card dual synchronous recording and photography, with one channel 4K and one channel 1080P. Serial port, network, and S.BUS can all control the camera and PTZ, supporting 9x digital zoom. The focal lengths of visible light are 25mm and 6mm respectively.

In a sense, it should be an industrial grade product that has nothing to do with consumer grade sports cameras. However, considering its unique performance and dynamic stability enhancement effect, as well as its weight of only 150 grams, it is also very suitable for use in the field of sports cameras.

When it comes to sports cameras, we definitely think of the famous GROPRO, but for some unknown reason recently, a line of eye-catching words appeared on GROPRO's official website:

Unfortunately, we will not sell our products directly to your country/region on our website. You can try to find our products at local electronics retailers

 

Although there are also stores on Tmall, JD.com, and others selling GROPRO products, what does it mean that purchases cannot be made on this official website? Can you give us a perfect explanation?

 

In other words, although the motion camera itself is excellent, it also has relatively big shortcomings, such as no zoom function, although the image quality is relatively high, the night effect is not good, there are many accessories, only the basic anti shake ability, and it is not convenient to adjust the perspective during movement.

And these drawbacks are precisely the advantages of the KHP415S90. It supports 9x digital zoom for both 2 million pixels and 8 million pixels, and the 3-axis setting allows the wearer to freely adjust the direction of the gimbal during movement. As the head and camera are integrated, accessories are reduced. Finally, there is the ability to dynamically transmit data in real-time, as the KHP415S90 itself is used in unmanned aerial vehicles, so wireless image transmission is its biggest advantage.

 

Among the people who use sports cameras, many sports enthusiasts are no longer satisfied with just post editing and recording operations. Instead, they hope that the audience or friends on site can watch their exciting videos in real-time. At this time, the advantages of KHP415S90 are exposed. Through our PC and Android ground station programs, we can easily connect to the gimbal through the internet, Live stream your footage onto these output carriers. At the same time, it does not affect recording. The most crucial thing is that your friends can control the gimbal and watch the pictures they want after connecting to it through the internet. It's like sharing a screen. In view of this, when conducting live streaming, it is important to remember not to open all live streams, or to use screen recording after opening the live stream. This will basically achieve the effect of regular live streaming.

 

Due to being the first product to transform from industrial grade to consumer grade, the KHP415S90 gimbal camera from Topotek still has its inherent shortcomings. The most crucial point is that it must be connected to the power supply and TP-LINK wired network port when using it, and IP address mapping is also required during use. This is indeed quite cumbersome for beginners, but once they master its features and functions proficiently, So it will give you an excellent sense of exercise.

The current official website price of KHP415S90 is 3957 yuan, which is basically equivalent to mid to high-end sports cameras. Its main customer base is also targeted at extreme sports enthusiasts, who enjoy thrilling events such as karting, skiing, skydiving, and racing, while also eager to share their own exciting moments. Only by immersing themselves in these events can they provide viewers with more sensory stimulation, The KHP415S90 gimbal camera from Topotek can be seen as an additional option for extreme sports enthusiasts and sports live streaming customers.

TOPOTEK Portable Lightweight Gimbal Camera Why Attend IDEF’2023 Türkiye International Defense Exhibition

Some days ago, TOPOTEK just finished his trip to Türkiye and participated in the 16th IDEF2023 Türkiye (Istanbul) International Defense Exhibition. Many small partners will have questions: as a Chinese private enterprise, why do you go to Türkiye International Defense Exhibition? The main reasons are as follows:

First of all, this Türkiye International Defense Exhibition is very influential in the world. President of Türkiye's President Erdogan has also appeared in this exhibition for many times, which shows the importance of the high-level to this exhibition. Secondly, Türkiye is a very special country. From the perspective of geographical location, Türkiye is located at the junction of Eurasia, bordering the Black Sea to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, Syria and Iraq to the southeast, and the Aegean Sea to the west. Türkiye is a country across Europe and Asia. It is a crossroad connecting Europe and Asia. In ancient times, it was a place of frequent wars. Türkiye has an important channel connecting the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea - Türkiye Strait, which has a very important strategic position and is known as the "throat of the world".

 

From the perspective of humanistic countries, Türkiye, as a member of NATO, has very close cooperation and exchanges with Russia, China and other non NATO countries. Due to its unique geographical location, many western countries are also trying to attract Türkiye, especially the United States. In order to control Russia, the United States can call Türkiye a "draw in" by all means, and tolerate everywhere, just to prevent Türkiye and Russia from uniting. It is natural to have a certain say in the international arena due to their unique geographical location.

 

In this Russia-Ukraine conflict, it can be seen that Türkiye is very vacillating, taking advantage of both sides, but the United States is also tolerant everywhere. In addition to this reason, there are military reasons, especially the Turkish Air Force. The Turkish Air Force is NATO's third largest air force, second only to the United States and Britain, and its number of F-16 fighters is also second only to the United States. The Turkish Air Force, located at the junction of Eurasia, is also one of the most powerful air forces in the world.

 

Since 2023, the use of small and medium-sized UAVs has developed rapidly both in military and civilian use. As the eye of UAVs, the photoelectric pod has also attracted much attention in the past 1-2 years, with frequent product replacement and rapid upgrading. TOPOTEK is to seize the current business opportunity this time and bring many latest developed products to the 16th Türkiye (Istanbul) International Defense Exhibition, Show the world the charm of China's manufacturing industry.

 

The founder of TOPOTEK, Cai Jianlong, founded TOPOTEK in 2012 and has been deeply involved in the field of optoelectronic pods until today. It is a private company and the products produced are civilian use. The characteristics of TOPOTEK products are large magnification optical automatic zoom, 1080P high-definition storage, signal direct control, real-time compression coding, and real-time high-definition output, coupled with supporting stability enhancing platform, allowing customers to directly control and use them. The thermal imaging integrated infrared gimbal has dual light picture in picture display, temperature measurement, visible light zoom, and motion tracking functions. The optical zoom integrated system integrates intelligent image algorithms (supported AI tracking), allowing users to develop their own intelligent image algorithms and achieve personalized customization on the hardware platform of Topotek co creation.

At present, the newly developed KHP20A12 is highly favored by oversea market. KHP20A12 is the first 1280 thermal imaging dual light gimbal developed by TOPOTEK, with a visible light of 20x optical zoom. Compared to the previous 30x optical zoom, the CMOS is 1/1.8, and the photosensitive effect is better; The thermal imaging is 1280 * 1024, with a focal length of 35 millimeters and a recognition distance of over 800 meters. With the built-in tracking and locking function, it can quickly identify the direction of the target. It can be applied in military areas such as reconnaissance and guided attacks, and in civilian areas such as rescue and disaster relief, emergency applications, forest fire prevention, traffic surveillance, and factory inspections.

In addition, Topotek also showcased other products, including waterproof series photoelectric pods that can meet the IP68 waterproof standard, 10x optical zoom with 640 thermal imaging, guide head series DYS30G619, emergency application 200g series gimbal, and full color night vision single light gimbals. Also we have created a series of product promotional cards, where customers can obtain detailed electronic versions of the English gimbal information by scanning the QR code above, which is very convenient and fast. This Türkiye International Defense Exhibition shows that Topotek is paying more and more attention to the overseas market, but we still have a long way to go. All employees of Topotek will work together to make the product better and make the future more colorful.
