This Thing is Humongous

As one of the largest cinema robots in the world, the SISU C31 offers filmmakers high speeds and an enormous working area. Its wingspan of over 20 feet and maximum height of almost 14 feet provide enough range to reach up and over even the largest subjects.  This powerhouse cinebot breaks down limitations and gives directors unmatched versatility on set.

With SISU Lab's fast and intuitive interface, programming your shot doesn't get any easier. Instead of spending hours on a shot, SISU Lab makes it simple to program and perfect your camera move in a matter of minutes. Not only does this mean more shots per hour, but it opens up new worlds of possibilities for creators that were previously unreachable without extensive knowledge and training.

Hardware

FIZ Motors

We know your job depends on the tools you use. That's why we include two ARRI cmotion lens motors with every robot.

Camera Mount

We provide a universal dovetail mount with a custom cheeseplate to mount to your robot. Also see the OmniBracket.

Combo Cable

Easy access at the end of the arm to camera power, FIZ power and comms, SDI, start-stop, and bloop light connections.

Industrial Servo Motors

Precision is everything when it comes to moco. Our C20 arm is repeatable to 0.04mm - that's half the width of a human hair.

Removable Weights

Forget sandbags, the C31 comes with three solid steel 900-lb weights that are optionally removable.

Simple Tripod Base

The C31's base is the simplest in the industry. Just move the bot into position and drop it down - no leveling, cranking, or tightening.

FAST AND EASY

We've made programming a robot so intuitive we hesitate to even call it "programming". Squeeze the trigger, move your hand, and the camera will follow your exact movement. Or you can just drive it into position with the joystick. Once you're there, just press a button to save the keyframe to your timeline and voilà, you're ready for the next one.

Safety

We take safety seriously.

E-stop Buttons

Each system comes with two permanent and two optional emergency stop buttons for max safety.

Enable Switch

If this three-position button is not held down, the robot will not move. Prevents dangerous accidental robot moves.

Mastering Switch

During setup, optionally use this to ensure the robot is actually exactly where it thinks it is.

Mode Switch

Switch between programming mode (safety-speed limited) and run mode (full-speed).

Watchdog

In programming mode, redundant processors monitor robot speeds in real-time and perform a safety stop if it tries to go too fast.
