Moog Quickset

Rugged Pan & Tilt Positioners

Low Profile Yoke

The low profile yoke positioner is lightweight and designed to remotely operate thermal and/or visible cameras mounted on vehicles to accommodate driver vision enhancement (DVE) programs.

Other sensors, laser pointers/illuminators, etc. can also be mounted and deployed. Simple user interface and rapid “return to home” automatic home positioning provides the quick response a driver requires in emergency situations. A simple base mount makes deployment or relocation fast and easy.

The low profile yoke positioner is highly durable yet extremely reliable in even the most harsh environments.
