Abstract
A remote control imaging system includes an independently controlled imaging platform controlled by a camera operator. A telecontrol unit includes a video preview monitor, camera and trim controls and an interface for attachment of a conventional camera control handle to permit selection of telecontrol zoom, iris, focus and camera on/off controls. An imaging platform is capable of motion about three orthogonal axes independent of the motion or control of a support vehicle, such as a crane or helicopter. The imaging platform may also accommodate rapid interchange of a variety of imaging devices using a standardized three point securing system, which may also isolate vibration from the support vehicle.
