Milo Motion Control Rig is a portable motion control system used for camera operation in motion control photography. Developed by Mark Roberts Motion Control, Milo is for those who need the quality that a studio system can offer in a portable system. Milo is the world's best portable system due to its stiffness and fast enough for direct action shooting. It can be ready to shoot within 35 minutes of arrival on set. It has a variety of options including different long sleeves and different track type rails.

Milo provides axes for Track, Rotate, Lift, Arm Extension, Head Angle (Pan), Pan, Tilt, Roll, Camera, Zoom, Focus, and Iris, while the system as a whole can control more axes for drive models and the like.

Milos are used every day in locations around the world, for widescreen movies, commercials and music promos. The rig is designed to be easily moved around a studio location or room with integrated floor wheels. It can be transported intact when traveling by road. For longer trips it is designed to be easily separated into 7 main sections (excluding rails) by only 3 people. Re-assembly of the flight case is a very quick and simple process and after being trained can be done by 3 people in less than an hour, to be ready with the first shot.

The Milo uses our Flair motion control software for all its functions and Flair integrates with various 3D and CGI packages using various file formats and methods. Exporting to move from Milo to CGI platform can often be done directly or using our MC Tools software or FBX file format is very simple and without fuss. Other complex movements designed in CGI software such as Maya can be pravisualized in a special CGI interface - IKTRIX - during pre-production or by SFX/post-production houses and then transferred directly to Milo for execution on set or later date.

Though Milo's arms are swinging in an arc around the center of the rig, a straight-line movement can be achieved vertically, horizontally or in any direction, through the use of the "Target Tracking" feature in computer software. For example, during a vertical straight line movement, the track automatically compensates when the arm is swung upward to produce the perfect straight movement.

Milo geometry allows it to move from ground level (or below) to a maximum height of 4.1 meters (13.5 feet) with minimum image shake. The elongated arm allows the system to be shortened for mellow or extended short distances for greater coverage.

Note that Milo Long Arm now gives the lens height of more than 6 meters.
