The Second Wave RoboticPrompter is a professional teleprompter system developed specifically for use with high-quality PTZ cameras in the studio. Its robust yet lightweight metal housing ensures durability and reliable operation – even during continuous use.
The RoboticPrompter is manufactured in Germany with precision engineering and is equipped with high-quality German-made mirror glass. The system offers excellent optical performance and integrates seamlessly into existing studio workflows.
Requirements, Solutions and Benefits
For professional studio use, a teleprompter must combine good readability with the widest possible range of movement for the PTZ camera.
The generously dimensioned housing of the Second Wave RoboticPrompter completely encloses the camera and prevents disruptive stray light from entering. This keeps the displayed text clear and easy to read.
The large format enables the text to be displayed clearly while simultaneously providing the PTZ camera with a wide panning range. This makes it easy to cover different recording situations – for example, when a person is positioned to the side or when several people speak into the camera one after another or simultaneously.
This page offers the Second Wave RoboticPrompter 24″ Standard Brightness with HDMI input. Other monitor sizes, brightness levels and 3G-SDI versions are available as separate products. The price shown here applies to the version available for purchase on this page. The Second Wave RoboticPrompter is available upon request with different monitor options:
-
24 inch Standard Brightness, with or without 3G-SDI
-
24 inch High Brightness, with or without 3G-SDI
-
22 inch Standard Brightness, with or without 3G-SDI
-
22 inch High Brightness, with or without 3G-SDI
This allows the teleprompter system to be configured to suit the respective studio environment, lighting conditions and existing signal technology.
Talent Monitor for Professional Studio Use
A talent monitor is an essential component of the teleprompter system in many studio productions. It allows the people in front of the camera to keep the programme feed or other relevant content directly in view.
Various talent monitor solutions are available for the Second Wave RoboticPrompter. As the appropriate version depends on the camera, the studio concept and the desired workflow, we will be happy to advise you on the selection.
Teleprompter systems have been one of our areas of expertise for decades. Our personal advice on putting together a complete solution is also based on this experience.

Benefits in the Workflow
The Second Wave RoboticPrompter combines reliable text display with the freedom of movement of modern PTZ cameras. The complete shielding against stray light improves readability and makes it easier for the people in front of the camera to deliver a focused presentation.
Thanks to the wide panning range, the PTZ camera can capture different positions and image compositions without requiring the teleprompter system to be reconfigured. This supports efficient studio workflows and enables flexible productions with changing speakers and camera positions.

Robust. Precise. Made in Germany.
The Second Wave RoboticPrompter is a professional teleprompter system for PTZ studio cameras and demanding studio productions.
The Perfect Addition: Motorised Height Axis and Network Control
The Second Wave RoboticPrompter is a large and heavy professional teleprompter system. Manual height adjustments therefore require considerable effort and are barely practical during ongoing studio operation. The logical addition to the Second Wave RoboticPrompter is the Second Wave Motorized Pedestal . Its motorised height adjustment allows the camera and teleprompter to be precisely adapted to the height and position of each speaker. Only a controllable height axis can guarantee the perfect camera height for every speaker and therefore a natural gaze directly into the camera.
In combination with the Second Wave Robotic Data Box , the height adjustment can be controlled from a central workstation via a network protocol. This integrates the previously missing fourth controllable axis – height – into automated studio workflows.
The Second Wave Motorized Pedestal and Second Wave Robotic Data Box are complementary products. They are included only if expressly listed in the order.
The combination of the Second Wave RoboticPrompter, Second Wave Motorized Pedestal and Second Wave Robotic Data Box forms a professional complete solution for modern, automated and AI-READY studio productions.
