Abstract
Various systems and methods are provided to implement a flexible approach to the remote control of camera systems. For example, camera systems and related methods may be implemented to recognize a protocol that supports a multi-tiered configuration of camera system components. In one example, routing tables may be maintained at various tiers of a camera system to facilitate the selective routing or execution of commands at different tiers in a hierarchical manner. In one example, the routing tables may be dynamically built and may include routing information related to lower level tiers but not higher level tiers.
