Operating Instructions
View and Gimbal Control
The Tiny 3 features a two-axis gimbal for precise pan and tilt movements. You can control the gimbal's movement speed for smoother or faster transitions using the joystick in the OBSBOT Center software. Alternatively, you can directly drag and move the gimbal within the video preview window.
Preset Mode
The Tiny 3 supports up to three preset positions. Once you've adjusted the PTZ to a desired view, simply click the corresponding button in the software to save your current view. This allows for quick switching between different camera angles.
AI Tracking
The upgraded AI Tracking 2.0 allows the webcam to identify and lock onto various targets. You can choose between single-person tracking, group tracking, or object tracking. Auto-zoom levels (Full Body, Upper Body, Close-up, Headless, Lower Body) ensure precise framing. Three tracking speeds (Slow, Standard, Fast) are available.
