RB18VH3-PT500 Pedestal Robotic Pan & Tilt Head System

RB18VH3-PT500 Pedestal Robotic Pan & Tilt Head System

The SEEDER RB18VH3-PT500 is a broadcast-grade pedestal robotic pan-tilt head for fully automated camera movement in studio and live AR/VR/XR/MR production. It delivers ultra-smooth, shake-free operation at <20 dB, with AI-generated multi-point motion paths. Supporting Canon and Fujinon B4 full-servo lenses, it outputs 23-bit FREE-D tracking with black burst sync. The modular, calibration-free system enables rapid setup, integrates with leading studio automation platforms, and provides advanced multi-scene control with comprehensive safety features.

Technical Instruction

1. 5-axis motion: pan, tilt, zoom, focus, and iris. Precision positioning of motion path with speed adjustment and memory. No cumulative error after repeated use.

2. Payload: 4.6kg (head). Bowl size: 100mm. Max payload: 18kg. Compatible with major camera brands.

3. Input: 220V AC, ≤108W.

4. Operating noise: <20dB, suitable for live studio acoustic environment.

5. Two-stag pedestal: 90 mm - 110 mm diameter air cylinder, double color digital barometer, payload 50kg. Working height: 1100–1800mm. On-shot Stroke: >700mm. Dolly with brakes and lockable motion trajectory.

 

Movement Specifications

1. Head Pan: ±150°, 0-60°/s, 0.001° precision

2. Head Tilt: ±75°, 0-60°/s, 0.001° precision

3. Zoom/Focus: 0-52mm/s, 0.001mm precision

1. Professional start-stop anti-shake technology, ensuring stable footage during rapid movements.

2. Automatically calculates motion curves, acceleration/deceleration, and timing from the start position and duration, supporting smooth 16-node curvilinear motion.

3. Equipped with electronic leveling system for accurate calibration with virtual tracking systems.

4. Uses absolute value encoders to record motion positions and tracking data, with accuracy <0.000043° (8,300,000/360°). No cumulative error after repeated power cycles. System can start without calibration.

5. Supports Canon and Fujinon full-servo lenses, controls zoom, focus, and iris, retrieves built-in lens tracking data, and synchronizes tracking delays.

6. Outputs high-precision FREE-D tracking data via both RS422 and UDP for AR, VR, XR, MR integration.

7. Virtual compensation calibration function corrects motion tracking based on system error.

8. BB external sync / SDI internal sync with loop-through.

9. Standard TCP/IP protocol enables third-party automation control.

10. Robot host includes built-in OS and 7-inch touchscreen. Operates independently without external panel.

11. Program storage: 32 programs × 16 sequences × 16 scenes = 8192 scenes, with scene file import/export/backup.

1. Professional-grade crane operation, no manual handling.

2. Standardizes open/close shots for news and feature programs.

3. Delivers highly accurate image synchronization for AR/VR productions.

4. Provides professional tracking data for large-scale real-virtual productions.

5. Supports OB van and large studio automated camera positions.

6. Delivers effective telephoto stabilization for UHD shooting.

7. Reduces operator error during critical live events.

8. Enables smooth remote operation over IP networks.
