Robycam

Robycam system is operated by our employees, who received training from Movicom, Robycam’s manufacturer based in Russia, and obtained international licenses. Our staff carries out full-cycle operation starting from setting up the system, which is carefully considered prior to the event and individually for each shoot. First and foremost we value the voice of your imagination – what kind of image YOU want to create, and we then provide complete service to enable the delivery of outstanding footage to the audience – the kind they have never seen before.

Robycam is a 4 mounting points cable system that among other events was used during Sochi Winter Olympics opening ceremony. This is the only one system that is always available in Japan that can move with exceptional freedom in the 3D space, delivering incredibly immersive experience to the audience worldwide, overturning the well established standards of image-making.

Dancing in the air with multi-dimensional freedom, capturing moments of deepest emotions.

Robycam 3D system is a unique system which moves camera with exceptional freedom and safety in 3D space. This is possible due to fiber-optical transmission without delay, real-time control of 4 robotic winches, specially developed mathematical formula employed by the control station, most advanced gyrostabilization and motion control technology.

Robycam can work in 3D or 2D mode, as well as move camera vertically within working zone.

The supported cameras are SONY HDC-P1, and also such camera packages as F55＋FUJINON ZK4.7×19 or Red Epic. One of the latest software updates made it possible to read pan, tilt, roll angles as well as zoom and focus data and do live broadcast where image from Robycam is combined with CG in real time. We are constantly working on new functions to improve customer experience, such as making it possible to achieve much larger camera height given the same mounting points, or offering an option of permanent installation of the system at a venue.

Robycam Delivers AR World View

With Robycam 3D one can use motion control option and receive dolly position coordinates, camera angles, zoom and focus data in real time. The image from the system is combined with CG on the go and broadcasted live, offering for the audience spectacular footage where unique Robycam shots are integrated with the creativity of CG world.

Robycam Compact

Robycam Compact is a smaller, lighter version of Robycam 3D cable-suspended camera.
Same as its bigger brother, the camera can move freely through space in vertical and horizontal dimensions, allowing to shoot spectacular images from the view angles that no other camera can achieve.
Robycam Compact is aimed to cover TV studios and small and medium-size sport venues, such as basketball, tennis, swimming or table tennis halls.

Just like Robycam 3D, which boasts zero accident record, Robycam Compact has also achieved DGUV 17/18 Certificate by DEKRA*.

Robycam Compact is available both for fixed installation or in a mobile variant for multi-event applications.

*DEKRA is a European inspection company founded in Germany.
In Europe, all aerial products must undergo safety and reliability testing and certification by DEKRA.

Permanent installation

Permanent installation is available for both stadium and compact models.
Considerfor a moment theopportunity to permanently install a cable camera system that has been used at Olympics and World Cup class events.We offer you fascinating footage and excellent functionality in a variety of service packages that boast exceptional cost performance.
Robycam can be used for a wide range of applications: from sports, to studio setting, to venue monitoring and security.

Stadium Permanent Installation Showcase

Permanent Robycam installations can be found in several Europeanstadiums. KrasnodarStadium is Robycam’s latest installation. Itis privately ownedandhosts major sporting events such as Europe League and Russian Premier Leaguesoccer matches and international competitions.

Krasnodarstadium opened on October 9th, 2016, and is home to Football Club Krasnodar (a Russian soccer club)
