At NAB 2019, Gudsen Technology is presenting the new MOZA Slypod – the world’s first motorized monopod that can also function as a slider with motion control technology. MOZA Slypod Gudsen describes their new innovative product, the MOZA Slypod, as a 2-in-1 motorized monopod & slider. The carbon fiber body makes the Slypod weigh less than 1,000g (35oz), including its built-in batteries. Despite its low weight, the Slypod can handle a vertical payload of up to 18kg (40lb) and a horizontal payload of up to 12kg (26.5lb). MOZA Slypod motorized monopod and slider.

The embedded precision motion control algorithm enables repeatable and smooth motion. The telescopic length, sliding speed and programmable motion time-lapse can be controlled via the MOZA App and the optional MOZA Hand unit. The Slypod is designed to be maintenance-free, also protecting the fully built-in transmission system from wind, sand and dust. MOZA Slypod motorized monopod and slider.
