The edelkrone HeadONE v2 is an ultracompact 360° motorized pan system controllable remotely via an iOS/Android app. The v2 model adds manual control for setting key poses, face tracking from the phone app on iOS, 2x faster rotation, and a safety locking switch. The app allows for setting up motion-controlled panning shots, time-lapse sequences, stop-motion shots, and 360 panorama photo capture. In 360 panorama mode, you simply need to enter how many photos you'd like, and the HeadONE v2 automatically does the rest, providing you with precision panoramic images. It operates very quietly thanks to its ultra-silent step motor driver technology.

Mounting
The HeadONE v2 features a 3/8"-16 thread on the bottom and includes a 1/4"-20 bushing for the thread.
Pan (Single HeadONE)
Use HeadONE v2 to control your pans smoothly for nice panoramic videos, 360º photos, and motion time lapses. It is also great for repeating the same shot several times to achieve visual effects shots.
Pan + Tilt (Dual HeadONE)
When you add a second HeadONE (Tilt Module required), both devices discover each other and pair automatically in the background. This way, you can control both of them with the same app. With the addition of an optional tilt axis, you will achieve much more interesting panoramic videos, 360º spherical photos, and motion time-lapses.
Hands-On or Remote
Manual control gives unprecedented speed and ease to your workflow and makes the entire process much more intuitive.
- To control from a phone, watch, tablet, or Mac (with M processor), use the edelkrone App
- To control from macOS or Windows you can use a separately available adapter
Easy Time-Lapse Programming
Setting up a motion time-lapse is easy with the edelkrone App. In your time-lapse videos, you can have a simple transition between two key poses or you can convert a recorded complex camera motion into a time-lapse with a single button.
Repeatable Motion
HeadONE and all other edelkrone motion control devices can perfectly repeat any camera motion. Add some masking magic with your favorite video editing software, and wow your audience.
Face Tracking (iOS only)
Phone mode enhances HeadONE with Face Tracking capabilities. Whether you're using a single HeadONE or dual HeadONEs, Phone mode ensures that your camera (or phone) follows your subject's face with precision, and it's all done through the convenience of your phone.
Whether you're recording presentations, hosting webinars, vlogging your adventures, conducting interviews, or capturing documentaries, Phone mode will keep you at the center of attention.
Recording
Simply attach your phone to HeadONE v2. Once you activate Face Tracking, HeadONE(s) will elegantly keep the face within the frame, delivering smooth panning and/or tilting for your phone. Both Front and Back cameras of phones are supported in both horizontal and vertical orientations.
By attaching the phone to your camera's shoe mount, you can leverage your phone's face tracking capabilities while recording to your beloved camera. Again, both front/back cameras and both orientations are supported.
360° Mode
The 360° mode allows you to take panoramic gigapixel photos as wide as 360°. You take many photos next to each other line by line, then stitch them on the computer to get ultrahigh-resolution and wide-angle shots of any environment. The 360 mode becomes accessible on the edelkrone App when you connect to either HeadONE v2 as a stand-alone device.
Wireless Connectivity
When the HeadONE v2 is combined with a slider, jib, or dolly, you can easily program 3-, or 4-axis camera motions. You can record motion time-lapses and visual effects shots with any combination you choose. The devices pair instantly in the background.
