Halo-Explorer

Nail Focus, Every Time
Solve the challenge of accurate subject focus with the Halo Explorer. For the first time there is an affordable accurate system that can automatically track and keep your subject in focus on any lens* and any camera. For focus pullers, Halo Explorer gives you better tools with hybrid focus and focus acquisition, while still giving you complete control over your focus.

Automated Focus Tracking for Any Camera and Lens
When used with Eclipse products including Atlas and Navigator, Halo Explorer transforms into a powerful focus tracking system that keeps your subject locked in focus at all times. As the subject moves, Halo measures the distance in sub-inch accuracy and moves the lens motor to keep your subject focused, updating continuously. Great for tricky shots that combine camera movement (like dollying) with subject movement. Halo can identify and track subjects up to a distance of 100'.

The World's First Hybrid Focus Tracking
Automated focus tracking can be incredibly valuable, but operators still want manual control at any time. Halo delivers the ability to move between automated focus and manual focus seamlessly and without notice. For the first time you can combine automated focusing with manual focusing within the same shot using any camera and any lens including cinema lenses.

You can also use this feature for push-button focus acquisition to quickly set up initial focus, or to measure distance in different parts of your scene to set up your focus marks in a fraction of the time.

Use as a Rangefinder for a Great Focus Puller's Companion
For reference, Halo Explorer delivers an incredibly accurate distance information, showing real-time sub-inch accuracy on the built-in display or on your smallHD monitor overlay via the MissionControl app. this can be used to calibrate your remote, or as a helpful reference when setting focus marks or pulling manual focus.
