NAB will see an exciting new range from the worlds leading robotic manufacturers.
Comprising a controller, head and pedestal this system is set to take robotics to an expanding user base.
For NAB 2006 Vinten Radamec will introduce the Fusion Controller - a single underlying control system, which can be used with the current user interfaces, enabling operation of all current Radamec and Autocam products together with the new Fusion range pan and tilt head and pedestal.
By providing this control solution Vinten Radamec have developed an upgrade path that is compatible with current products, but which also pays attention to future product developments.
The new Fusion range comprises the FH100 head and FP145 pedestal. The FH100 head has been designed for use as a standalone device or for seamless integration with the new FP145 pedestal. The straightforward robust mechanical design and leading edge electronics development provide the perfect combination for a high performance head, both in flexibility and accuracy.
The FP145 pedestal has a maximum payload of 65Kg and can therefore support the new head together with today’s portable cameras, lenses and prompters. The pedestal has been designed in two formats, firstly as a fully robotic pedestal with full manual capability, alternatively as a full manually operated pedestal with an integrated height drive, which can then if desired by upgraded to a fully robotic version.
Vinten Radamec’s approach is to use building blocks to allow current users to slot in additional functionality. This whilst also introducing the application of robotics to a greater customer base that has previously seen robotics as, either, out of reach, or not capable of playing a significant part in a creative environment.
