Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for moving a maneuverable part of a pan-tilt camera from a first pan-tilt position, having a first pan coordinate and a first tilt coordinate, to a second pan-tilt position, having a second pan coordinate and a second tilt coordinate. The maneuverable part is moved by inverting the maneuverable part of the camera and panning to the second pan coordinate. The first pan coordinate is part of a pan-tilt coordinate system and the second pan coordinate is part of a complementary pan-tilt coordinate system, which represents positions of the inverted maneuverable part. The maneuverable part is moved from the first tilt coordinate to the second tilt coordinate. The first tilt coordinate is part of the pan-tilt coordinate system and the second tilt coordinate is part of the complementary pan-tilt coordinate system. The invention also relates to a corresponding device and a corresponding computer program.
