Modula
Appearance
Modula is Mark Roberts Motion Control's multi-configurable motion-control rig. Rather than shipping as a single fixed arm, the Modula is a kit of roughly 15 components that can be combined into up to nine different rig configurations — from a pan/tilt head on track, to a head plus lift column, to a full arm rig — giving crews a single travel case that can become many rigs on location.
