Shotoku USA, the North American operation of Shotoku Broadcast Systems--an international manufacturer of advanced camera support products--is returning to the NAB Show NY. The manufacturer will showcase its range of robotic pan/tilt heads and height drives at the show in Booth N743.

Shotoku USA’s robotic support specialist Matt Servis will be on hand to demonstrate some of the most popular pan and tilt heads from the company’s full range of robotically controlled configurations, as well as discuss any aspect of the system, from initial design and specification through installation, commissioning and U.S.-based after sales service.

Shotoku’s robotic pan/tilt head series will be represented by the TG-18 that combines high-accuracy, smooth movement, silent operation and high payload with a full manual override capability. The TG-18 will be joined by the small, lightweight TG-27 head, ideal for parliaments, legislatures and small TV studios.

The company will also show its height drive capabilities via the cost-effective Ti-11 fully integrated elevating column for robotic applications such as weather studios, news-desks and other open-area camera positions where manual operation is not a primary requirement.
