Ulti-Head shown with Dutch Roll Option |
The
Ulti-Head it is designed to be the
ultimate in low-cost yet precise and portable motion control head. But now it is
even more versatile as it is specifically designed to be a very modular motion
control system with easy addition of extra axes of motion. In particular, the
axis of Track adds a tremendous degree of freedom to the
Ulti-head and any shoot.
By adding a high-speed track motor and dolly system, as well as some industry standard rails, a whole new range of shots can be accommodated for very little additional cost. As an added benefit the track axis is "back-driveable" meaning that it can be pushed manually to record the motion**, just like a normal dolly, and then the motion can be repeatedly played back as often as required, or even the data exported to CGI.
There are a number of options for the Track system including:
 |
The choice of Rack & Pinion
drive for optimum accuracy and rigidity, or Belt & Pulley for |
|
|
Uprated Track drive for speeds in excess of 3 metres/sec |
|
|
Battery driven capability for the track system. |
|
|
Choice of Straight or Curved racking for track rails. |
|
|
Precision Bearing Rail instead of industry standard dolly rail for the Ultimate in performance. |

The UltiHead and any additional axes, like the Track, can be controlled using remote hand-wheels, joysticks, or pan-bars. Alternatively it can be programmed from the keyboard and mouse, it incorporates the advanced Flair software system with a highly graphical and user friendly interface. Flair also gives the operator the ability to pre-visualise the move both numerically and graphically and make adjustments as necessary before committing to the action run, as well as importing and exporting moves to CGI, such as Softimage and Maya.
If the system is not required for motion control but simply as a remote system then it can easily be connected to the MSA-20 controller instead of Flair. This gives the ability to operate or dry-hire the system with little or no training as the operation is so simple and intuitive.
This awesome system boasts several key features to set it apart from anything else currently available on the market, including:
|
|
Extremely high accuracy and rigidity for use in motion control applications |
|
|
Very high speed of movement |
|
|
Space-saving compact design for high portability |
|
|
Very Low-cost |
|
|
Fully adjustable for any camera or lens |
