GIMBO

Redefining Mobile Filmmaking: AI-Powered Gimbal for Seamless, Professional-Grade Shots

Overview: GIMBO is a narrow AI-powered, wheeled gimbal designed to work with smartphones. The project focuses on enhancing smartphone camera functionalities by offering automated positioning and shot optimization, making it ideal for content creators.

Applications: GIMBO is tailored for professionals, large-scale influencers, videographers, and tech enthusiasts. It provides a modular gimbal experience that optimizes camera positioning and composition, targeting the needs of creators in real-time shooting environments.

Unique Selling Points:

6 Degrees of Freedom (6 DOF): Unlike conventional gimbals limited to 3 DOF, GIMBO allows more fluid and flexible movement.
AI-Powered Scene Enhancement: With narrow AI, GIMBO automatically adjusts camera settings for the best composition based on the scene, reducing the need for manual adjustments.
Modular Operation Modes: GIMBO can function hands-free or on-hand, allowing creators to switch between different usage modes as needed.
Technology: GIMBO utilizes hollow shaft motors, a high-capacity battery, and a gimbal mechanism optimized with AI for dynamic content creation. It also includes real-time object tracking, adaptive positioning, and modular control to deliver a versatile and high-quality filming experience.

Sustainability Focus: The project aligns with green transformation standards, particularly the European Green Deal, by repurposing smartphones and leveraging their processing power. This approach supports sustainability goals through advanced upcycling techniques.
