Designed with broadcast studio settings in mind, Vinten has introduced two new robotic pan-and-tilt heads, the FH-155 and FHR-155, that can handle heavy payloads while still giving users plenty of maneuverability. 

The FH-155 and the FHR-155 are designed to be lightweight and near-silent options with a maximum payload capacity of 155 pounds, and a 3-port Ethernet switch built-in for robotic pedestal integration. The FH-155 has both a manual and robotic modes, while the FHR-155 only has robotic. A fully integrated StarTracker module option is also available to offer absolute-reference tracking system for floor-roaming pedestal combos.
