RB18EH4 Robotic Elevating Pan/Tilt Head

The SEEDER RB18EH4 robotic elevating system is developed for automatic shooting of AR, VR, XR, MR or real scene in various broadcast studios, remote photography, government, education, event live and so on. The robotic elevating system can be remotely controlled by one person. Features such as anti shake technology, noise reduction technology and AI curvilinear motion technology ensure the shooting of complex motion video and meet every need of professional broadcast television studios.

The robotic control panel can control 6 axis motion of robot lifting, robotic pan tilt head, zoom, focus and iris through the network. Supports up to 8 robotic shooting devices, stores up to 32 programs, each with 16 sequences and 16 scenes per sequence, allowing a total of 8,192 editable scenes. The system includes two sets of control systems, namely built-in and external, which can be quickly switched for use. It comes with an emergency operation button as standard. The saved movements can be triggered with just one click. or even automatically. New movements can be created within minutes and existing movements can be modified easily. Seamlessly integrates with studio control systems like SEEDER SEEART, Vizrt MOSART, ROSS Overdrive, and GrassValley, supports graphic systems such as Vizrt, ZD, Brainstorm, UE5, and more.

Technical Instruction

1. Three-section quadrilateral lifting column with column diameters of 180-256mm. 6 axis motions (up/down of the elevator, pan, tilt, zoom, focus and iris). It can precisely position motion trajectories and adjust motion speeds, as well as arbitrarily record positions. There will be no accumulated errors after repeated camera movements.

2. Precision mechanical lift system, with lens lift range from 880mm to 1680mm, and accuracy up to 0.001mm.

3. Maximum payload of the pan & tilt head is 18kg, which is suitable for mainstream brand cameras and can be attached with small teleprompter.

4. Multi functional robot chassis is used to facilitate movement. The overall weight is about 70kg.

5. Power: 220V, 300W

6. Noise Volume: <20dB

 

Movement Specifications

1. Pan range of the head: ±350°, speed:0-60°/s, precision:0.001°

2. Tilt Range of the head: ±120°, speed:0-60°/s, precision:0.001°

3. Lens lifting range:880-1680mm, speed:0-300mm/s, precision:0.001°

4. Zoom and focus: suitable for mainstream lens. Speed: 0-52mm/s, precision: 0.001mm

1. Rapid start stop anti shake technology.

2. According to the starting point position and motion time, automatically calculate the curve motion trajectory and motion acceleration/deceleration function, and can achieve smooth curve motion of 16 consecutive points.

3. The chassis is configured with electronic leveling system to facilitate precise calibration for the virtual tracking system.

4. Absolute value encoders record motion positions and tracking data with a tracking accuracy of <0.000043° (8,300,000/360°). There is no accumulated error in the tracking data even after multiple power on/off cycles. Tracking data can set the pan/tilt calibration data, and reverse tracking data feature. The transition VR/AR system application and one-time calibration.

5. Support Canon and Fujinon full servo lenses, control zoom, focus and iris functions, and retrieve the lens built-in tracking data. Automatic lens delay.

6. Simultaneously outputs high-precision FREE-D tracking data via RS422 and network-directed UDP for seamless integration with AR, VR, XR, MR devices.

7. Standard TCP/IP network protocol for control by third-party equipment, enabling automated operations. 

8. The equipment body features a built-in operating system and 7-inch touchscreen panel, allowing it to operate independently without an external control panel.

9. Supports storage of 32 programs, 16 sequences, 256 scenes. Supports import, export and backup of scene files.

10. Virtual compensation calibration function utilizes robotic motors to compensate for tracking data motion based on virtual error values.

1. News, weather, thematic studio, government, education, event, etc.

2. Virtual studio and automation studio.

3. OB van, large studio, large scale activity.

4. Remote photography through network transmission.
