Popis: A considerable amount of time and resources are spent on training pilots for a sports broadcast. A typical Camera Rover system requires multiple pilots to capture shots, first to control the rover, second to control the camera, and the third pilot to verify the output feed. Synchronization of these pilots is crucial for capturing the best shots. In today's world where Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, and Automation is helping the world reach new heights, automation in the Broadcast field still depends on human administration. This can be reduced by using algorithms for capturing shots and reducing the synchronization cost of pilots. This paper proposes a system to minimize this problem by automating the need for one pilot and providing a user-friendly interface for the extraction of the footage of the desired object. A user interface is provided to the pilot to select the object to be tracked and the system will try to follow the object based on the trajectory. The system consists of a camera rover, micro-controller unit, an onboard Computer, Gimbal, and a User Interface.
