Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for moving a camera that is disposed on a pan/tilt head along a given trajectory especially in a set or studio as well as an associated camera robot. In order to be able to move a camera with repeated accuracy along a given trajectory, an associated trajectory is determined for the spatial positions and orientations of a basic reference system of the pan/tilt head from the given trajectory for the camera, and associated control variables for shafts of a robot that can be moved in Cartesian coordinates are generated from the determined trajectory for the basic reference system of the pan/tilt head and are transmitted to the shafts, thus allowing camera movements to be made that are not possible with previously known systems.
