Professional Teleprompter Solution for Broadcast and Video Conferencing
The Ikan PT415W-TM is a studio-grade 15” SDI teleprompter system designed to support scripted content delivery in professional environments such as live broadcasts, corporate videos, and streaming productions. The system includes a 15" high-bright teleprompter monitor paired with a 15” SDI widescreen talent monitor featuring integrated tally lights. Equipped with a 65/35 beam splitter, versatile camera mounting options, and SDI, HDMI, and VGA inputs, this system ensures your on-camera talent can maintain direct eye contact while reading scripts clearly in any lighting condition.
Beam Splitter Glass Ensures Clear Readability and Camera Pass-Through
This system features optical-grade 65/35 beam splitter glass, allowing the teleprompter monitor to reflect text to the presenter while permitting 65% of light to pass through to the camera. The front-facing mirror coating provides a sharp reflection, and the anti-reflective rear coating eliminates ghosting. Presenters can comfortably read the screen from up to 17 feet away, while the camera captures undistorted, color-accurate footage directly through the glass.
Broadcast-Ready Monitor with Full HD Resolution and Image Flip
The 15" widescreen monitor offers 1920 x 1080 resolution and an impressive 1000 cd/m² brightness, ensuring exceptional visibility even under studio lights. It supports SDI, HDMI, and VGA input signals, offering broad device compatibility. The menu allows adjustment of brightness, contrast, chroma, tint, RGB intensity, and backlight. With an image flip button that supports horizontal and vertical orientation changes, the monitor is ideal for mirrored setups or video conferencing use, allowing presenters to view themselves in a natural orientation.
Talent Monitor Enhances On-Camera Confidence and Communication
The included 15" widescreen SDI talent monitor attaches securely to the teleprompter setup and displays the live feed for presenters to monitor their delivery in real time. It supports SDI, HDMI, and VGA inputs and shares the same 1080p resolution and 1000-nit brightness as the main monitor. The integrated tally light illuminates red, green, or yellow based on camera status—helping the presenter know whether they are live, in preview, or queued, improving timing and visual connection during multi-camera shoots.
Wide Compatibility with ENG, Mirrorless, and Cinema Cameras
To accommodate a wide range of camera types, the PT415W-TM includes three riser blocks of varying heights—5.31", 2.06", and 6.29". This flexibility allows operators to precisely align the optical center of their cameras with the beam splitter glass, whether using DSLR bodies, camcorders, mirrorless cameras, or cinema rigs. The adjustable mounting system ensures compatibility across productions with changing camera setups.
High Brightness Monitor Supports Use in Bright Studio and Outdoor Setups
With a maximum brightness of 1000 nits, the monitor remains readable in high-illumination environments such as LED-lit studios or even outdoor sets. The high-brightness capability is essential when standard displays would wash out due to overhead lighting or direct sunlight. Whether you’re indoors or on location, the text remains vivid and readable for talent without compromising the camera shot.
Durable Build with Lightweight Aluminum Housing for Portability
Built from lightweight yet durable aluminum, the teleprompter frame is designed to endure regular studio use and transport. It features 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting threads for easy setup on tripods or pedestals. Bezel-mounted monitor controls make it simple to change input sources or adjust display settings quickly, even mid-production. The system also ships in reusable foam, making it easy to repack for transport or storage using a compatible hard case.
