As the developer of fluid camera head in the radio and television industry, SEEDER has now brought a high tracking resolution and high-quality virtual head tracking camera system with 23 bit absolute encoder. 


1. How to select the head and payload


According to the payload, it is divided into four types, namely S15VR, S20VR, S30VR AND S40VR, so the maximum payload of the fluid head is up to 40kg. And a teleprompter can be mounted on it. It adopts H-type and V-type quick release plate. It is worth mentioning that the SEEDER head is truly full-CNC processing with fluid damping plate, and the counterbalance is 16 x 2 level. It can adapt to extremely harsh external environment and temperature requirements as it can work in the temperature range of - 40 ° C/+60 ° C.

2. Tracking resolution for the virtual production


Pan and tilt adopt 23 bit absolute encoder, the tracking resolution of pan and tilt each can reach 8,300,000 / 360 °, the tracking data is RS422 / USB-C / Ethernet UDP / TCP four-way simultaneous output. Because of the FREE-D protocol, it is compatible with graphic systems such Vizrt, Avid(Orad), Brainstorm, UE5, etc. The upgraded data processor Databox5 can support data input via encoders in pan, tilt, zoom, focus, lens and crane XYZ. Also it can automatically identify the built-in encoder of Canon or Fujinon lens and collect tracking data.

3. Convenience and efficiency


When the stand moves, it can realize the function of "two points quick positioning". After measuring the position and connecting the data, the origin position can be determined within one minute.


The position and tracking data are automatically recorded, and one-time calibration, which can ensure efficiency and save time. 


4. Matching of tripod

SEEDER virtual pan & tilt tracking head is equipped with a camera tripod, but the head can also be used with a pedestal, such as one-stage pedestal, two-stage pedestal, or pedestal VR tracking system. By the way, as a leading R&D manufacturer, based on the positive market evaluation of one-stage camera pedestal for many years, SEEDER is the first manufacturer in China to develop and release two-stage camera pedestal, which has been successfully applied to the market. 



SEEDER virtual tracking camera tripod systems are committed to the leading experience in the field of virtual tracking, and its ergonomic design provides a powerful and reliable platform for the configuration of various types of cameras and lenses. The systems can provide high-precision real-time shooting for virtual production.
