Shotoku Broadcast Systems, a privately owned company headquartered in Japan, founded in 1944, operates with approximately 400 employees and reported $55.6M in revenue as of 2024. The company functions as a tier 2 media tech buyer, specializing in content acquisition, and provides Camera Support Systems, including Robotic Cameras, VR Camera Tracking, Manual Pedestals, Heads, and Tripods, designed for broadcast applications.
Shotoku Broadcast Systems introduced its new Aura range and TR-XPTZ Control System on April 3, 2026, designed to provide sophisticated, scalable control for PTZ heads. The company noted that while major broadcasters, legislatures, and global corporations increasingly integrate PTZ heads into broadcast-quality production environments, these implementations often lack adequate control systems. Previously, on March 25, 2026, Shotoku USA announced it would unveil Aura, a suite of advanced pan, tilt, and zoom (PTZ) solutions, at NAB 2026, extending the company's high-end robotic camera control expertise into the rapidly evolving PTZ production sector. Earlier, on March 23, 2026, Shotoku USA stated it would stage the global debut of the Aura TR-XPTZ Control System, the North American introduction of its Swoop crane, and the launch of its Quick-Ref referencing system at NAB 2026.
