SpydaBot SCORPION Thermal Mount - SmartRest
SpydaBot Scorpion – 3-Axis Wireless Gimbal Mount for Thermal and Optical Devices.
The SpydaBot Scorpion by SmartRest Australia is a high-performance, 3-axis gimbal system designed for precision scanning with thermal monoculars, cameras, or lights—ideal for pest control, livestock monitoring, and vehicle-based surveillance. Featuring full wireless control via a mobile app, this rugged unit provides seamless camera movement and stability on even the toughest terrains.
With 3-axis stabilization and leveling, users can pan and tilt smoothly while viewing live footage through a connected smartphone. iOS devices sync perfectly, while Android users may need to orient their phones upright for accurate gimbal alignment due to differing gyroscope configurations.
The gimbal is securely mounted in a durable Australian-made housing with six powerful magnetic legs, offering rock-solid attachment to any metal surface—especially effective when mounted on a vehicle. No need for permanent vehicle modifications or bulky fixtures—just set it up, scan, and pack away in seconds.
