In a world where the demand for video content is rising dramatically and more start-up production companies are incorporating than ever, we feel there is a disparity in the prevision of affordable motion control solutions for productions that specialise in product cinematography in studio settings. Robotic automation allows filmmakers to create precise and repeatable shots that have the potential to create stunningly unique visuals however, the barrier to entry is costly and technically challenging. We want to utilise the affordability of the universal robots combined with intuitive control software to make this technology accessible for non-technical creative professionals. We'll be developing bespoke mechatronic hardware to integrate the robotic arm with the production equipment, as well a native UR app to enable quick and hassle-free changes to the control sequence.Building a software and hardware package that is affordable for smaller production companies around the world, we hope to make the process of creating motion control shots more accessible for everyone.

在当今世界，对视频内容的需求急剧增长，并且比以往任何时候都加入了更多的初创制作公司，我们认为，在为专门从事演播室环境中的产品摄影的制作提供经济实惠的运动控制解决方案方面存在差距。机器人自动化使电影制作者能够创建精确且可重复的镜头，从而有可能创造出令人惊叹的独特视觉效果，但进入的障碍是成本高昂且技术上具有挑战性。我们希望利用通用机器人的经济性与直观的控制软件相结合，使非技术创意专业人士也能使用这项技术。我们将开发定制的机电一体化硬件，以将机械臂与生产设备集成，以及本地 UR 应用程序，以实现快速、轻松地更改控制序列。通过构建世界各地小型制作公司都可以负担得起的软件和硬件包，我们希望使每个人都能更轻松地创建运动控制镜头的过程。
