Controller components

The PTZ controller is the interface between MiruSuite and a physical PTZ camera. It sends control commands for panning, tilting, zooming, etc., and keeps track of the camera's current PTZ position.

After enabling the controller, you can manually control the camera by using the virtual joystick. This will temporarily override any director movements. Click Save as home to save the current position as the return position for the camera. Click Return to home to move the camera back to the saved home position.
