Canon CR-N300 and CR-N500 Integration

Canon Ensures Compatibility and Seamless Integration Through Module Development with Control Concepts

In demonstrating their commitment to excellence beyond the benefits of their feature-rich products, Canon, a leading provider of consumer, business-to-business, and industrial digital imaging solutions, also understands the importance of providing their clients ease of integration for both new and existing systems. With that in mind, Canon invested in the expertise of AV software developer, Control Concepts, to help ensure simplicity and reliability of control system integration for their new line of CR-N300 and CR-N500 cameras.

The CR-N300 and CR-N500 cameras offer broadcast-quality indoor and outdoor imaging in 4K with remote production capabilities and address the growing demand for streaming with a professional pan/tilt/zoom product. In addition, the AMX and Crestron modules developed by Control Concepts facilitate seamless remote control capabilities that leverage the cameras’ key features with those third-party platforms and controllers, while also offering the convenience and reliability that integrators need to make their projects run smoothly and predictably.

 

Whether it is a new installation or an upgrade to an existing system using Crestron or AMX controls, the modules developed by Control Concepts are an excellent asset for integrators and programmers. “Knowing Control Concepts’ reputation and their commitment to support manufacturers with modules and drivers that provide compatibility with third-party control platforms, we felt confident they were the right fit for our needs,” shared Michael Kearns, Senior Technical Specialist, Canon USA. “Not only were the deliverables provided promptly, but Control Concepts’ development process was also smooth and easy.”

“Given that ease of control was critical to the success of the CR-N300 and CR-N500 cameras, it was rewarding to partner with Canon to develop control modules that facilitate reliable programming of AMX and Crestron systems,” remarked Steve Greenblatt, Control Concepts’ President. “We look forward to working closely with Canon to ensure that their clients have a positive experience controlling these products.”

The relationship that Canon and Control Concepts have forged offers a single point of contact for both development and support needs ensuring consistency in user experience, optimal performance, and reliable outcomes that designers, integrators, and programmers need to specify, implement, and control Canon products with confidence.
