The project enables you to draw rectangles on an image captured by a "system camera". You can then name, move, or delete these rectangles using a list that appears under the picture.
The AutoCam feature utilizes a camera to determine whether a person is within any of the specified locations. If the person is in multiple places, the system prioritizes the location closest to the center of the stage. The microphone sound also plays a role, with the pulpit microphone having priority. The system switches to a camera that points to where the person is located and captures clips based on their position and microphone sound.
- Switch to a camera that points to where the person is.
- People towards the center of the stage have priority. Exception if the sound comes from certain microphones. Then it has priority. For example, if there is a lectern with a separate microphone
- If necessary, move the camera first. If the camera to be moved is already on, a shot from the total angle must show in between.
- If there are complete silence, begin clipping slowly between the total shot, the last person to speak and prerecorded videos from around the room or outside. Put such videos in
srcfolder - If the same camera has been on for a long duration of time, cut to the total shot for a few seconds.
The RPi-ATEM project also features an ESP8266 with an LED light that can be wirelessly connected to act as a tally light.
