Meet ‘Transporter’

Posted by Karim Saad

‘Transporter’ will be carrying a 360 degrees video rig. It will be controlled from a distance to avoid being filmed! Below your find some pictures and a sample video. This is the first video made with the prototype and will definitely be improved with time.

The base is a 1/10 RC crawler.

Pneumatic Mast for Elevated A/V Works

Posted by Karim Saad

This is an eight meters mast that can be deployed in places where access to platforms and elevated areas are limited or non existent. Being mounted at the back of my truck, it gives it more versatility since it can be deployed in remote areas where ever  my truck can go!

Can shoot, panoramas, gigapixel imagery, spherical images as well as 360 video.

DIY Defender Cargo Barrier

Posted by Karim Saad

I have decided to go for a sliding partition rather than a metallic barrier for the following reasons:

1- Reducing the cabin volume —-> increasing the efficiency of the AC

2- Better visibility

3- Access to the cargo area from within the cabin

4- Reduce noise coming from the back side of the truck!

Partition is made from polycarbonate, 40 times stronger than glass.
