Compact Camera Slider – Motion Control, Vertical Operation, Shareable Presets and 3-Axis Capability

Story

Trexo Slider is the world’s most compact camera slider and uses a lead screw to operate. Unlike other bulky sliders on the market, Trexo Slider does not use a belt operated system, which is often responsible for problems such as vibrations, jitters, bumps and noise.

 

You can program your Trexo Slider with the intuitively designed Trexo Motion App, or take advantage of the onboard menu for setting and teaching movements to Trexo Slider.

 
Simply move the Trexo Slider by hand and set starting and finishing points to move the slider between these two points without using a mobile device. Or, move the Trexo Slider with the arrow buttons and set points with the onboard menu. Speed up or slow down, set loops, and modify parameters of movement with just a few buttons!
 
 
 

Trexo Slider can be taught newly programmed movements like start and stop points, incline and decline motions, and loops, all from the onboard menu!

Teach and set two positions and manage speed via the onboard menu to have Trexo Slider move between these two points on speed controlled loop mode.    

The points you set are synchronized instantly with the Trexo Motion App, so you can monitor and change the parameters of the movement.  It’s also possible to save these parameters as presets and convert the movement to a motion time-lapse to push the limits of your creativity!

Th team at Trexo Innovation designed the Slider to be used right out of the bag without the need for a mobile device. With learning mode, you can easily program Trexo Slider starting and finishing points by hand and set the speed of the movement via the onboard menu. The only thing you need is your creativity.

Trexo Slider has a powerful motor and high precision encoders for perfect slide Shots. Trexo Slider can carry 1.5kg on 90° vertical shots and 2.5kg on incline shots up to 45°. You can set Trexo Slider to incline mode directly from the onboard menu!

You can simply change the speed parameter directly from the onboard menu and find the optimal speed for your shot. Either program the Trexo Slider by hand, or create a looped movement to avoid disrupting a recording. 

 

Although not required, the Trexo Slider can be operated with the intuitively designed Trexo Motion App. You can set multiple points and create multi-point timelines with those keyframes. The Trexo Motion App can also be used with all upcoming Trexo Motion Products.

With the help of the Trexo Motion App you can create multi-point movements with a timeline principle similar to common video editing software. 

The Trexo Slider and Trexo Motion App have dual synchronization dynamics so that Trexo Slider synchronizes the points you created on your mobile device instantly. With the timeline mode button, you can play the last timeline you created, so you can use your phone for shots while triggering the movement from the Trexo Slider. 

The Trexo Motion App lets you save and share your presets. When you record a movement, save it and share it with friends using the Trexo Motion App or use it again on your future productions!

 

At just 20cm or 8in, Trexo Slider is the world’s most compact camera slider. It will easily fit into most backpacks or day bags for lightweight portability that means you never miss the shot!

With outstanding vertical operation and a fast motor that moves up to 2.5cm per second, Trexo Slider can perform 90-degree vertical shots with any mirrorless camera on the market at a wide range of speeds suited for any shot, whether looping, single point-to-point, or time-lapse. 

Trexo Slider does not include a gearbox and belt mechanism. Instead, it has a unique leadscrew design that eliminates all the issues of belt-operated sliders such as jitters, jumps and vibrations and allows you to have precise speeds as slow as 0.001mm/second and as fast as 3cm/second.

Trexo Slider is perfect for interviews and wildlife photography! With its ultra-quiet motor drivers, you can create stunning videos where audio recording is crucial. 

The team at Trexo Innovation listened to feedback from numerous creators to understand the market and create a product that fulfills those needs. After countless iterations in development, Trexo Slider is equipped with critical features in a compact form factor. 

Trexo Slider is a versatile motion control solution with different mounting options with the help of the 1/4 and 3/8 mounting ports on the bottom and on the side.

 

With the Timelapse feature, you can shoot Motion time-lapses. Easily convert any of your programmed movement to a Timelapse shot and trigger your camera with the built in 2.5mm shutter release port. 

Trexo Slider can also be combined with a power bank for unlimited hours of amazing time-lapse shots!

 

Trexo Slider has a built-in 3250mAh 18650 battery that is good for 6 hours of continuous movement.  The operating software automatically shutdowns if the Slider has not been used for 10 minutes in order to prevent the battery from running out accidentally. 

 

Trexo Slider Bundle comes with the Trexo Flex Arm and Ball Head, which are great for positioning your camera for the ideal shot. 

The Ball Head helps you position the angle of the camera and the Flex Arm helps you move the center of the camera far from the slider to get majestic flyover shots.  

Trexo Pan & Tilt Module makes Trexo Slider a 3-axis system in a very compact form factor. Each module weighs 390 grams / 0.85lbs, and the complete 3-axis system can carry 2Kg / 4.4lbs in horizontal usage. The Pan & Tilt Module can be used for 360 shots, and with the built-in shutter release port, the Trexo Pan & Tilt module can be used for timelapse shots as well!
