Get to know Bolt & Milo.

Bolt — High speed camera

The Bolt High-Speed Camera Robot is the fastest of its kind – capturing images in crisp focus that would be impossible by hand or any other method. The precision cinema robot adds an entirely new perspective to filming – whether shooting commercials, tabletop work, film or television.

Milo — Motion control

The Milo is the ideal solution for achieving studio-quality motion control with a portable system. Stable enough for macro work, fast enough for live action shooting and ready to go within an hour of arriving on set, the Milo delivers all the flexibility and control required for filming on location.
