The V BOT Robotic Pan & Tilt Head from SalrayWorks is a motorized pan/tilt robotic head boasting very smooth and quiet operation and supporting cameras up to 6.6 lb. The V BOT stores up to 10 preset positions that can be quickly recalled with an accuracy of 0.1°, and it can memorize the exact position of the previous subject for immediate shooting.
The head features a panning range from 0 to 340°, and it tilts down 35° and up 20° at up to 15° per second. The unit supports HDMI passthrough with reclocking at up to 4K60 resolution. It also supports powering the head via PoE+ (Power over Ethernet) to facilitate powering it from a distance. Zoom, iris, and focus control of the camera being used can also be achieved by connecting via the integrated LANC port, or you can utilize IP control protocols, including VISCA over IP or Canon XC.
The V BOT is also compatible with Sony's LANC protocol for remote control of basic camcorder functions, including start/stop recording and zoom. The Sony Multiport interface provides data transfer and power delivery for Sony cameras, such as the Alpha series, RX series, Handycam series, and FX3, using a separately available LANC-to-Multi cable.
You can also utilize VISCA-over-IP for control as well as the Sharon proSTICK controller.
