The 'Cinebot Max' boasts performance that far exceeds traditional camera robots. It is expected to break the limits of filming with its ability to handle heavy equipment and perform acrobatic movements freely in the air, which was previously unthinkable.
Robust Performance of 'Cinebot Max'
As the name suggests, 'Cinebot Max' extends the capabilities of its predecessor, 'Cinebot Mini', supporting larger camera kits and enabling shooting over a wider range. It can support cameras up to 20 kilograms, reach heights of up to 3.2 meters, and move freely within a range of 1.75 meters.
Imagine this:
Filming with a 20-kilogram camera moving freely in the air is something humans could never achieve. However, robotics technology has made it possible. This is truly a technological advancement that expands new possibilities in filming.
Simple Operation Supporting Creators' Vision
Have you ever thought, 'I wish I could shoot from that angle'? With 'Cinebot Max', that 'if only I could capture it' becomes a reality.

Designed with a focus on simple operation, filmmakers and content creators can control smooth tracking shots accurately and seamlessly. Even without special skills or knowledge, the camera can be controlled intuitively. Additionally, using an interface called 'Push Moco', specific camera movements can be manually keyframed in a motion control setup.
The unprecedented freedom breaks the technical limits for creators, expanding the scope of production.
A Glimpse into the Future of Video Production
How will technological innovation change future video production sites?
MRMC CEO, Assaff Rawner, announced, 'With the ease of use and simple motion control of Cinebot Max, we aim to streamline the video production process and deepen visual storytelling.'
As Rawner states, in future video production sites, creators will be freed from technical operations, allowing them to focus more on creative storytelling. It is expected that the quality of video will improve, delivering more moving works to audiences.
The release of 'Cinebot Max' is an example of a good chemical reaction created by the fusion of technology and creativity, imagining the future of video production sites.
