The Lift is a motorised telescopic column that carries a PTZ camera and makes its height part of the shot data. Three servo-driven stages raise and lower the camera with broadcast-grade precision, quiet enough to move on air. At the base, a height-aware unit reads the column position in real time and takes the PTZ's own tracking in: pan, tilt, zoom and focus. It merges the two into one FreeD stream, so the camera and the column reach your engine as a single tracked object instead of two sources you have to combine yourself. Genlock in locks every packet to your studio reference. One cable to your engine, and nothing to stitch together downstream: no second tracking source to reconcile, no drift between camera and column, no per-axis offsets to chase during a show. The stream is ready for Unreal Engine, Zero Density, Brainstorm, Pixotope and anything else that speaks FreeD.
