Furio SkyDolly

Ceiling-Mounted Camera System

At a Glance

Furio SkyDolly adapts our industry-leading robotic technologies to a ceiling-mounted system.  By removing the camera from the floor, SkyDolly frees up space and renders pedestals, cranes, and jibs unnecessary.

Combining unmatched stability, speed, and accuracy, SkyDolly delivers smooth, dynamic, repeatable on-air quality presets and movements, perfect for live, automated, and virtual and augmented reality productions.

Practical Performance

Furio SkyDolly delivers much more than just beauty shots. With the payload capacity to support a full-sized prompter, it can also serve as the primary camera in a newsroom production.

Integrated Safety First

The SkyDolly cannot fall thanks to its specially designed wheels and secondary safety rails, as well as tether points for every element of the system, including the payload.

Complete Package

The SkyDolly package includes everything required for a complete ceiling mounted rail system, including optional inverted lift, custom trusses, and an integrated cable management system.

Fully Compatible

Fully compatible with our existing Furio VR1, VR600 and X350 heads, SkyDolly integrates seamlessly with other elements of the Ross Robotics family, including CamBot XY pedestals, Furio floor dollies and BlackBird pedestals, all under SmartShell or Vision[Ai]ry Ft control. All Furio‘s unique features come standard on all SkyDolly Studio systems (including Furio API, remote E-stops and field-replaceable electronics unit).

Always On Track

Furio SkyDolly’s perfect for virtual and augmented reality with its absolute rail encoder technology which provides reliable, accurate tracking data regardless of traction, accumulation of dust and dirt, and without the need for homing or recalibration.

MotionDirector

Furio SkyDolly unleashes the full power of MotionDirector, combining the unequaled beauty of naturally smooth and synchronized key-frame moves, with the flexibility to make in-flight manual corrections from the joystick panel. Create even more unique signature shots by recording manual (joystick) movements overtop of keyframed moves.

Models

Furio SkyDolly with X350/VR600 Head

Mounting an X350 or VR600 head directly under the SkyDolly with an 18cm (7”) fixed height column provides a unique perspective, ideal for beauty shots where usually jibs were being used.

Taller or shorter fixed height columns can be custom built, depending on the studio requirements.

Furio SkyDolly & S2 Lift with X350/VR600 Head

Mounting an X350 or VR600 on an inverted S2 lift under the SkyDolly allows for some spectacular studio shots by combining smooth vertical movement with long sweeping dolly shots.
