Pan · Tilt
Two-axis active stabilization
Pan and tilt correct together, holding the line of sight where the operator pointed it.
AMAS Vision · Marine EO/IR Gimbals
Gimbals built for unmanned vehicles
The hull moves. The picture holds.
AMAS Vision designs stabilized thermal and visible camera gimbals for unmanned surface vessels and other unmanned platforms. While the platform pitches and rolls in a seaway, the line of sight stays on target, and every function is operated remotely from shore or a mother ship.

Stabilization
Stabilization tuned for heavy seas
Pitch and yaw at Sea State 5–6 are cancelled by the gimbal in real time. The bearing and elevation the operator locks stay put while the hull rises and falls.
Feed-forward
Reads hull motion first
The gimbal takes in the hull's attitude and compensates before the motion reaches the picture, instead of waiting for the image to drift.
Soft limits
Smooth near the limits
When a large wave pushes an axis toward the end of its travel, correction eases off smoothly instead of hitting the stop and jolting the picture.
AMAS Miro18
Search, identify and locate with one payload
AMAS Miro18 TV10L is our two-axis stabilized marine gimbal. Thermal, wide-angle, zoom and a laser rangefinder work together in one unit, taking the operator from wide-area search to target identification and location.

Built for Sea Service
Built for long service at sea
Salt spray, humidity, sun and constant vibration are the daily conditions on a working vessel. AMAS Miro18 is built to keep working in them.
Uptime
Back on task quickly
When service is needed, the vessel returns to its mission in short order. Less downtime for the gimbal means more time on patrol.
Designed in Taiwan
Developed in-house in Taiwan
Mechanics, control electronics and software are developed by AMAS in Taiwan, with direct technical support from the team that built it.
Faceted housing
Rugged faceted housing
A compact, rigid faceted shell that stands up to life on deck and sits cleanly on any mast.
Marine electronics
Marine-grade control electronics
AMAS designs its own control boards for life on board: humidity, salt, vibration and electromagnetic interference.
Open Integration
Works with CORUM Pilot and other unmanned systems
Select the gimbal model in CORUM Pilot and its dedicated control panel and on-screen information load automatically. An open architecture also lets it join other unmanned systems and third-party ground control stations.
About CORUM Pilot↗PTZ
Direction keypad
Up, down, left and right keys drive pan and tilt directly.
HUD
HUD overlay
The video shows model, resolution and field of view, plus live azimuth and elevation.
TGT
Target positioning
Gimbal pointing angles, laser range and vessel position mark the target on the map.
OPEN
Open architecture
Standard interfaces, including MAVLink, connect it to other unmanned systems and MAVLink-based ground control stations, not only CORUM Pilot.
MOD
Modular software
Gimbal control and imaging control are separate, so changing the sensor module does not affect handling.
