Normally, recording a cinematic-style video required the cameraman to move, often with a big, expensive rail to help stabilize the picture. The edelkrone DollyPlus is a compact camera robot, designed to move a tripod in a programmable manner.

The motorized robot can support up to 13 kg worth of camera equipment with the Pro version bumping the number to 20 kg. DollyPlus is connected wirelessly with a smartphone app, meaning controlling the robot’s movement is just a few taps away.

With a smooth surface, DollyPlus can help you capture a stable and fluid video like it was filmed with a cinema-grade rig. On top of that, this could eliminate the need to hire a cameraman and save money.
