e-Cube Pan-Bar
The e-Cube is an encoded fluid head pan-bar. This fluid head is designed to operate remote controlled head
or other devices in an intuitive way, achieved by the operator just as if he was operating a traditional Pan
and Tilt head. The movements performed on the e-Cube are mirrored by the remote controlled head.
The e-Cube is a smart alternative to Hand wheels (§4.5.2) or joysticks (§4.5.3).
The e-Cube head has a flat cover platform with multiple threaded holes to install a monitor and/or a
Console. A level bubble helps in mounting the device horizontally.
Two telescopic pan bars are coupled to the vertical shaft and carry 2 sliding counterweights to balance the
weight of lens controllers (§4.5.4 and §4.5.5) attached to the bar.
Pan/Tilt outputs connect (6) to the encoders connectors (11 on Table 2).
