Discussion on Conceptual Form of The Third Generation Camera Robot System

Abstract

By reviewing the development of camera robot system, this paper extracts function and applicative characteristics of the first two generation systems. According to the actual requirements of film shooting and the evolution path by nature, this paper proposes the conceptual form of the fully automatic third-generation camera robot system suitable for photographer control. To explain major differences between the third-generation and the earlier two clearly, this paper uses comparison methods in narration procedure. With consideration of the application, development status, on-site requirements and engineering technology limitations of camera robot system in recent years, the design principles and functional advantages of third-generation system are discussed, and the corresponding key research directions are proposed.
