SOLOSHOT: A robotic cameraman
Pixel Perfect Precision - Companies innovating in imaging
SOLOSHOT is a company developing a robotic filming system capable of acting as a cameraman completely independently. Perfect for filming sports and other outdoor activities, it removes the burdensome role of having someone babysit a camera all day.
SOLOSHOT uses a base and GPS tracker to ensure the included camera maintains a clear view of the video’s subject, who is wearing the tracker as an armband. The new SOLOSHOT 3+ improves on its predecessors with more accurate sensors, which allows for near-instant usage without a long calibration or warm-up time to get started. The camera itself is capable of shooting in 4K 30 FPS, with a whopping 65x zoom! Soloshot is an impeccable example of the blend of two passions. SOLOSHOT uses robotics to better the solution to outdoor and sports filming.

As robotics is introduced across more industries and into more products, the importance of having proper imaging is becoming more apparent. Whether it is a camera's clarity, a sensor's accuracy, or the software onboard a robot, imagery is undoubtedly integral to a seamless operation within a robot. Today, we’ll go over 3 companies specializing in different aspects of robotics imaging, demonstrating the innovation and technology of imagery.
Skip Robotics: Software for automation
Polhemus: Motion-tracking leaders
Polhemus brings extensive experience and best-in-class technology to motion tracking. Their proprietary magnetic tracking allows Polhemus to service a wide range of industries, such as healthcare, agriculture, and even the military.
Polhemus is known for their tracking technology, which allows for both position and orientation to be tracked natively, without any additional hybrid calculations. This is made possible through small electromagnetic sensors that can be placed on or embedded into an object. Electromagnetic tracking provides advantages such as lower power usage, longer range, no lost data, and faster setup time when compared to motion tracking through cameras or other sensors. Polhemus’ extensive history of use in the military and healthcare industries is proof of the efficacy and applicability of electromagnetic tracking.
