Triggering Pilot Remotely

You can trigger Pilot's programmed movements remotely via the TRS Trigger Input port. 

- This input port is designed as a relay closure connection - no external voltage is needed to trigger the action. Please do send a powered signal from your motion control system!

- We also make the Pilot Connection Kit, which makes it easy to connect to most motion control systems

Compatible With Pilot

If you’re a photographer shooting stills & GIFS:

In ecommerce one of the most common tasks is 360° views, exposures divided equally and repeated over many products or set-ups.  This repetitive work is simplified and made identical with Pilot combined with Pour, Spin or Twirl.

If you’re shooting stills and normal speed motion:

You may be able to avoid using specialized, keyboard operated software/hardware such as Dragonframe DMC-32,  Arduino, etc.No need to DIY — sequences, from simple to multi-Rig complex, are controlled in your hand.

If you’re shooting with a motion control system or robot arm: 

-Pilot accepts low voltage relay trigger signals from many motion control systems. Pilot receives the signal, then runs the program you create. 
-Pilot provides a convenient separate method of control, outside the robot system, allowing our Rigs to be coordinated without disturbing the motion control system operator.  Each can work independently and increase efficiency.
-Depending on which motion control system you use, you may or may not be able to output step & direction signals to our Motorized Rigs.  Pilot is that solution.
