On September 3, 2026, Shotoku Broadcast Systems introduced the Aura E2 PTZ Elevator at IBC 2026, a studio pedestal specifically designed for PTZ production that provides smooth elevation for PTZ cameras. This product represents the latest expansion of Shotoku’s Aura system, its growing family of PTZ-focused products. Earlier, on August 20, 2026, Shotoku showcased its expanding Aura PTZ ecosystem, which applies decades of robotic camera expertise to professional PTZ productions, alongside its Swoop Robotic Crane at the same IBC 2026 event. Previously, on April 17, 2026, Shotoku debuted the Aura P2 PTZ Prompter Panner at NAB 2026. This new system addresses traditional limitations in PTZ/prompter setups by removing pan movement restrictions that previously prevented the prompter hood from entering the frame and limited creative flexibility for broadcast and high-end AV environments. The P2 was showcased alongside the TR-XPTZ control system at the event.
