SNAKECAM ™
SNAKECAM™ is a telescopic camera-motion system that pairs a telescoping crane with a multi-axis, gyrostabilized camera head. It enables low, crowd-level travel without entering other cameras’ frames and continues in a single move to elevated wide coverage. In addition to in/out telescope, SNAKECAM executes smooth, snake-like trajectories for dynamic shots in live broadcast, film, and scripted television.
