Gravity Media’s Motor Racingcam

Designed for blistering speeds, multiple laps and the biggest sporting events, Gravity Media’s Motor Racingcam takes viewers onto the track for a unique spectator experience. Mounted both in and on the cars, our Motor Racingcam provides seamless live-action footage from the most coveted events on the racing calendar.

Our onboard camera system incorporates the mounting of one or more cameras on and in racing vehicles to deliver real-time action live from the track. In addition to professionally mounted and controlled cameras, we ensure all associated equipment, such as transmitter packs, video switching and microphones, are installed and fully integrated.

We provide all frequencies and/or licences and hardware for in-car wireless bandwidth, procuring the same at no additional cost, as and when possible, in concert with the outside broadcast (OB) suppliers. Simplifying and streamlining the process of capturing and broadcasting superior footage, our speciality Motor Racingcam and experienced team ensure viewers enjoy each race from a unique vantage point. 

How Motor Racingcam Works

Operating on the basis of at least two cameras per vehicle, the Gravity Media Motor Racing Cam system can provide a driver shot,  a forward inside shot and many more – all hot switchable to deliver the most engaging and exciting audio and visuals in real-time. 

Alternatively, choose from a wider range of shots when you opt for four hot switchable cameras per vehicle and a driver shot, forward shot, rear shot and speciality shot, such as the view from the roof of the vehicle. 

All cameras in our Motor Racingcam system are CCU capable to facilitate seamless remote management and are technically balanced to match and complement main OB visuals. Additionally, you can synchronously switch between cameras within the car without any interference, delay or disruption to broadcast the best shots at every point in the race.

Globecam Synchronisation

Designed to deliver optimal performance, visuals and audio, our Motor Racingcam system is professionally controlled from the Globecam (mobile trailer) control centre within the outside broadcast (OB) compound. 

Specific in-car cameras have the ability to pan & tilt and/or zoom via remote control and our experienced engineers will adjust the camera position from the advanced Globecam control centre so that you can broadcast the best shots in real-time.
