Embodiment Construction

[0025] The apparatus and methods of the present invention provide a vehicle for stabilizing or positioning payloads. The carrier may include one or more components configured to be coupled to each other and / or to the payload. A carrier as used herein may refer to a pan / tilt, and the terms "carrier" and "pan / tilt" may be used interchangeably throughout. The pan / tilt of the present disclosure may be ideally suited for mobile use, be compact and low weight. Each gimbal component may be configured to permit rotation of the payload about an axis of the payload (eg, a roll axis, a pitch axis, or a yaw axis). The payload may be directly coupled to a gimbal component configured to permit rotation of the payload about the roll axis. In some cases, the gimbal may permit rotation of the payload equal to or greater than 90° about the roll axis.

[0026] In many cases, the payload may be an imaging device, such as a camera. In some cases, the controller may receive a desired orientatio...

Abstract

The invention discloses a device and method used for enabling effective loads to be stabilized. A carrier can be provided, and can operate the effective loads, the effective loads can rotated by 90 degrees or more around the roll axis, under some conditions, the carrier can be directly connected to a part (like a pan tilt part) configured to allow the effective loads to rotate around the roll axis, the carrier in the invention has compact configuration allowing the size and the weight to be minimized and being ideally suitable for moving use, specially, the carrier can be mounted on a UAV, under some conditions, an imaging device can be collected to the carrier, and an image with horizontal orientation, vertical orientation or orientation between the horizontal orientation and the verticalorientation can be captured and processed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of pan and tilt, and in particular, to a pan and tilt for image capture. Background technique [0002] Gimbals with a variety of configurations, sizes and capabilities have been developed for a variety of applications. For example, gimbals can be used in applications related to inertial navigation, rocket motors, photography, and imaging. In some cases, a gimbal may be used to provide stability to the payload it supports. For example, gimbals can support payloads such as imaging devices. For images captured by the imaging device while in motion, the gimbal can counteract the effects of unwanted movement and help capture sharp images without motion blur (eg, a smooth sequence of images). [0003] However, the existing gimbal configuration may not be ideal. In some cases, gimbal configurations may have to be bulky and heavy, which is not optimal for mobile use. In some cases, the pan / tilt mechani...
