What we do

Camera Systems Engineering

Custom camera rigs, stabilization systems, and motion control solutions designed for professional cinema production.

Cinema Gear Development

Bespoke cinema equipment design and manufacturing, from custom lens systems to wireless control interfaces.

Integration & Automation

Seamless integration of hardware and software systems, including cloud infrastructure, monitoring, and DevOps workflows.

Technology

Embedded Systems

ESP32, STM32, and FreeRTOS — custom firmware for camera control, wireless communication, and real-time sensor processing.

Mechanical CAD

SolidWorks and Fusion 360 for precision rig design, with FDM and SLA prototyping for rapid iteration.

Cloud Infrastructure

AWS and Cloudflare for device management dashboards, OTA firmware updates, and production monitoring.

Wireless Control

BLE, Wi-Fi, and ELRS protocols for low-latency remote control of gimbals, cameras, and motorised rigs.

Motion Control

Stepper and servo motor systems for repeatable camera moves, automated pan/tilt heads, and slider systems.

Projects

DJI Inspire Protocol Analysis

DJI Inspire Protocol Analysis

Deep-dive into the DUML protocol used by DJI Inspire 2 and Inspire 3 aircraft. Includes a multi-endpoint router built on the ESP32-P4 that intercepts, decodes, and re-routes command packets between the remote controller, gimbal, and flight controller — enabling custom automation workflows that the stock firmware does not support.

Video Input for Air Unit

Video Input for Air Unit

A hardware modification that adds a 720p60 HDMI-compatible video input to the DJI Air Unit. Designed as a compact dev board, it converts parallel RGB video into the Air Unit's MIPI CSI interface, letting operators feed external camera sources through DJI's low-latency digital video link.

Ronin Bridge Pro

Ronin Bridge Pro

A wireless remote controller for DJI Ronin gimbals that adds features missing from stock accessories — programmable axis mapping, adjustable response curves, and multi-gimbal switching. Built around an ESP32 with a custom PCB, 3D-printed enclosure, and BLE connectivity for sub-20 ms latency.
