Somag RSM50

Ruggedized Stabilization Mount

The RSM 50 is the smallest and most cost-effective of SOMAG’s marine gyro stabilizers and targets the acquisition of perfectly stabilized offshore data. The Mount features a compact and light-weight design and suitable for deployment on USVs and small buoys for sensor stabilization up to ≤± 20.0° in the roll and pitch axis. 

The ruggedized platform compensates roll and pitch motions of boats and ships moving in wavy waters. The two-axis gimbal boasts an innovative round shape, a small form factor and low weight suitable for capturing highly accurate footage even on smaller buoys and on ASVs/ USVs for unmanned missions. High quality materials and a solid mechanical design ensure an effective use of this salt- and splash-water resistant gyro mounting system.

The electromechanical gyro stabilizer ensures highly accurate data capturing with electro-optical reconnaissance and surveillance camera systems up to 40 kg (88.2 lbs). No matter which payload is combined with the Mount, the result is always the same – the Mount load remains perfectly balanced, even when the ground is moving.

The RSM 50 can be adapted to your specific application requirements, including upside-down hanging installation. In addition, the successor of the RSM 400 now also offers an energy-saving mode for long-term applications as well as a failsafe braking system to securely lock payload during power outage. The new Ethernet communication interface allows for an integration into existing networks as well as a control and monitoring of multiple mounts within a network.
