Ikan EG25XR-PRO XR Virtual Production Tripod Kit

Professional XR Tracking Tripod Kit for Virtual Production

The Ikan EG25XR-PRO is a complete virtual production tripod solution built for tracking pan, tilt, zoom, and focus in real time. Designed for XR, AR, and VR environments, this kit includes everything you need for advanced camera and lens tracking. From integrated encoders to an XR processing device, it delivers broadcast-ready precision in any virtual studio setting. Whether you're filming for a live production, virtual event, or real-time compositing, this kit provides the data backbone required to sync physical camera movements with digital environments.

Encoded Fluid Head Supports Real-Time Pan and Tilt Tracking

At the core of this kit is the GH25XR Fluid Head. This robust video head features high-resolution encoders built directly into its design, capturing pan and tilt position with incredible accuracy. The data is sent through an 8-pin cable to the XR processor, which then outputs the tracking feed via RS-422 or RJ45. With support for payloads up to 61.7 lbs and adjustable counterbalance, pan, and tilt drag, this head is built to handle everything from lightweight cameras to large-format cine rigs.

XR Data Processing for Free-D Protocol Compatibility

The included XR Data Processing Device is engineered to interpret both tripod and lens encoder signals and output them using the widely adopted Free-D protocol. This ensures seamless integration into XR systems, allowing virtual environments to match real-world movements with pinpoint accuracy. The processor supports both UDP over RJ45 and RS-422 serial data output, giving you flexible deployment options for any virtual production workflow.

Heavy-Duty Carbon Fiber Tripod Built for Broadcast Loads

The tripod legs in this kit are made from 12-layer carbon fiber and feature a 100mm leveling bowl for fast and secure head mounting. With a massive 220 lb capacity, they can handle large camera builds, teleprompters, jibs, or PTZ systems. The dual-stage design includes a mid-level spreader, flip-locks with safety latches, and rubber feet that detach to reveal spiked ends—making this tripod just as effective on location as it is in studio. The height range of 30" to 60" provides flexibility for standing or low-angle shots.

High-Resolution Lens Encoders for Zoom and Focus

To complete the tracking system, the EG25XR-PRO includes zoom and focus encoders that clamp onto most standard broadcast lenses. These encoders feature 65,536 counts per revolution, enabling precise tracking of even the smallest lens adjustments. Mounting options include direct ring attachment or 15mm rod support, with interchangeable pitch gears (0.5, 0.6, and 0.8) to suit a wide range of lenses. Combined with the Free-D output, they deliver rock-solid performance in XR pipelines.

Comprehensive Kit for Production Efficiency

This all-in-one kit is tailored for demanding production environments. It comes with a padded carrying bag for safe transport and quick setup, an adjustable mid-level spreader for added tripod stability, and support hardware for fast rigging. Whether you're in a green screen studio, on an LED volume stage, or running a hybrid production, the EG25XR-PRO ensures your real-world camera data is always in sync with your virtual assets.
