The compact Ruggedized Stabilization Mount 400 targets the acquisition of perfectly stabilized offshore data.
Advantages
- Compact and lightweight design suitable for deployment on USVs and small buoys
- Adaptable to operational requirements with stronger motors and heating elements
- Most cost-effective marine Gyro Mount suitable for entry-level users
Better data with cost-effective gyro stabilizer
The RSM 400 is the smallest and most cost-effective of SOMAG’s marine gyro stabilizers. The ruggedized platform compensates roll and pitch motions of boats and ships moving in wavy waters. The two-axis gimbal boasts an innovative round shape, a small form factor and low weight suitable for capturing highly accurate footage even on smaller buoys and on ASVs/ USVs for unmanned missions.
Precisely adaptable to your needs
The electromechanical gyro stabilizer ensures highly accurate data capturing with electro-optical reconnaissance and surveillance camera systems up to 15 kg. Your sensor system weighs more than 15 kg? SOMAG offers a more powerful version of the RSM 400 with stronger motors, which keeps payloads leveled up to 25 kg. No matter which payload is combined with the Mount, the result is always the same – the Mount load remains perfectly balanced, even when the ground is moving.
The RSM 400 can be adjusted to meet your specific application requirements. For data collection in colder environments, SOMAG offers the possibility to equip the gyro-stabilized Mount with additional heating elements to guarantee a flawless operation down to -35 °C. High quality materials and a solid mechanical design ensure an effective use of this salt- and splash-water resistant gyro mounting system.
