The Hi Tech HT800 series of VTR and DDR controllers
provide a user-friendly remote control interface for
professional and broadcast videotape and disk
recorders.
The controllers now utilise a control wheel, called
“smartwheel”that is our first implementation of
Haptic technology –“Haptic” is Greek for the science
of touch. Our controller can be programmed to give
the operator different tactile and kinesthetic
sensations depending on the mode of operation, such
as jog, indented incremental shuttle speeds and so
on.
There are three basic models, a standard desktop
model with a crafted shuttle/jog control, an enhanced
model which adds a direct entry keypad and a deluxe
Slo-Motion Controller that adds a key pad and a T-
Bar control arm.
