Abstract
Methods and systems that include providing at least one controlled region, at least one controlled region device associated with the controlled region(s), and a processor-controlled user device, the user device having an interface by which a user can select one of controlled region devices, and provide variable speed control commands over a network to the selected controlled region device. The controlled region device can be a device that can be controlled at least in part, based on pan and tilt commands, including devices mounted on a pan/tilt head. Example devices include a camera, an antenna, and a spotlight.
