Using Beam Splitters for Teleprompters
Ikan’s teleprompter beam splitter glass allows a presenter to read from a teleprompter screen while maintaining direct eye contact with the camera or audience. The 3mm thick optical-grade glass features a front surface mirror coating with 65% transmission and 35% reflection along with an anti-reflection (AR) coating on the rear to prevent ghosting. This design ensures clear color-neutral images for the camera and easy-to-read text for the presenter.

Proprietary Glass and Coating Formula
The glass is coated so that it reflects 65% of the light projected onto it while allowing the remaining 35% to pass through. This unique characteristic enables the presenter to read the reflected script text clearly projected from a monitor below or behind the glass while simultaneously allowing the camera positioned directly behind the glass to record through it without capturing the reflected text.

Large Range of Camera Compatibility
Our professional line of teleprompters include three different camera mount bases making it compatible with a wide variety of cameras such as professional ENG cameras cinema cameras mirrorless cameras and camcorders.
Height of Riser Plates: Large – 135mm/5.31 inches • Short – 52.5mm/2.06 inches • DLSR – 160mm/6.29 inches

Versatile Teleprompter Monitor
The 15-inch monitor features SDI HDMI Composite and VGA inputs. The native resolution is 1280 x 1024 and the max brightness is 1000 nits. The OSD adjustment menu allows adjustment for contrast brightness backlight tint chroma sharpness. You can also adjust the intensity of each RGB color channel. Aspect ratio can be set as 16:9 4:3 full or it can be set to automatically detect the aspect ratio and set it accordingly.

Image Flip Button
The monitor features an image flip button that allows for both horizontal and vertical flipping of the displayed image. This feature is ideal for presenters who are video conferencing since it enables the presenter to view themselves as if they were looking into a mirror giving a greater sense of comfort during the video conference or live stream.

High Bright Screen
The 1000 nit high bright screen is able to deliver clear and vivid text visibility in various lighting conditions. In environments with intense lighting such as outdoor settings or brightly lit studios. This feature is particularly vital for outdoor teleprompting where sunlight can wash out the display of a standard monitor.

Aluminium Chassis
The custom aluminium housing is robust and will protect the monitor from the rigors of production. The monitor features bezel-mounted buttons making it easy to navigate menu functions or change your input source.

Easy to Balance
The 15-inch Teleprompter includes a rail that allows you to easily balance your entire teleprompter setup so that you don’t need a counter weight. The teleprompter can be offset along the sled

Ultra-Secure Hood
The hood of the teleprompter is anchored to the frame with bolts and additionally secured with magnets for extra stability.

Compatible with Bigger Lenses
The teleprompter hood for the PT415-TM features a much wider opening allowing some of the biggest lenses available to be used.

Rolling Hard Case
The rolling hard case is designed to accommodate the full teleprompter system including the teleprompter base risers hoods glass monitors and power supplies. The Injection Molded Mil-Standard Waterproof Case is crafted from ultra high-strength polypropylene copolymer resin. This case includes a gasket-sealed water and dust tight design ensuring it is submersible and complies with MIL-STD 810H standards. It is designed to withstand corrosion and impact damage.

Built-in Tally Light for On Air Status
The widescreen talent monitor features a tally light that illuminates red green and yellow. This means that a director can cut between cameras and the tally color will let the on-camera talent know which camera is live. Yellow tally lights are typically used as a way to signal to the talent crew and director that a camera is about to go live and to be ready for the shot. A green tally light is typically used to indicate that a camera is in preview mode. This means that the camera’s output is being sent to a monitor but it is not currently on air. This allows the talent director and production crew to check the composition focus and other aspects of the shot before it goes live. A red tally light is used to indicate when a camera is live or on-air.

Dual Tally Lights
The talent monitor can be mounted as either a talent monitor or a script monitor. The monitor features a toggle switch that allows you to choose which of the two tally lights you would like to use depending on which setup you decide to choose.
