The Lelantos family is Overview’s line of high-performance, direct-drive Pan & Tilt units, engineered for applications requiring ultra-precise, agile, and maintenance-free sensor or imaging payload pointing.
These systems deliver true zero backlash, continuous rotation, and a broad speed range — making them ideal for defence, security, broadcast / Pro AV, free-space optical or RF comms, environmental sensing, and more.
Lelantos units power a wide range of pointing and imaging systems, for example:
-
Surveillance camera systems and PTZ imaging rigs
-
LiDAR / volumetric scanning payloads
-
Free-space optical or RF communication terminals
-
Tracking systems, radar / sensor pointing
-
Lighting or illumination systems in remote or mobile installations
-
Environmental monitoring platforms
Because of their direct-drive design, Lelantos units excel where smooth, silent, and repeatable motion is critical.
