In a bold move destined to reshape the landscape of studio broadcasting, MRMC has announced the debut of its latest innovation — the RPS Roaming Pedestal System — a marvel of engineering that merges fluid mobility with studio-grade precision. It’s not just a camera platform; it’s a statement of intent. A commitment to unlocking creative freedom without sacrificing control.
The RPS — short for Roaming Pedestal System — is MRMC’s answer to a growing need in the broadcast world: dynamic movement with uncompromised safety and intelligence. For years, production crews have been bound by fixed-track systems and clunky dolly rigs. With RPS, MRMC delivers an elegant, free-roaming solution that doesn’t just meet the moment — it outpaces it.
A New Era in Studio Mobility
At the heart of the RPS lies a simple, yet revolutionary principle: movement should empower creativity, not restrict it. The RPS platform is designed to glide freely within complex studio environments, enabling directors and camera operators to execute challenging camera angles that were once deemed impractical or too risky.
What truly sets the RPS apart is its configurability. Whether you’re looking for vertical versatility or horizontal grace, MRMC has you covered. Choose the RPS-C2, equipped with a smooth lift column for height dynamics, or the RPS-LT, fitted with an articulated arm that brings sweeping, cinematic motion to the studio floor. Each version is tailored to meet the needs of different production demands — from fast-paced newsrooms to high-concept entertainment shows.
Intelligent Choreography, Seamless Safety
The RPS doesn’t just roam — it thinks. With built-in collision avoidance technology and intelligent choreography, multiple RPS units can dance across the studio floor with confidence and precision. Gone are the days of production staff nervously watching mobile rigs weave between talent and set pieces. The RPS anticipates its environment, ensuring operational safety without sacrificing momentum.
For MRMC, known for its leadership in robotic camera systems, this kind of autonomy is nothing new — but what’s fresh is the application. Bringing this level of free-roaming motion into mainstream studio production is a leap forward that opens up new storytelling possibilities and redefines how broadcasters approach shot design.
Exclusive Debut at NAB 2025
Want to see the RPS in action? You won’t have to wait long. MRMC will be offering an exclusive first look at NAB 2025, the year’s biggest broadcast technology event. Attendees can witness the RPS’s range, flexibility, and intelligence up close — and even test it for themselves.
Use code NS6898 when registering for NAB to get an early peek and secure your place among the first to experience the future of studio motion. And if you’re hungry for even more, MRMC will also be exhibiting at the JB&A Pre-NAB Technology Event, taking place at the Horseshoe Las Vegas Casino on April 4th and 5th. It’s an ideal chance to engage in one-on-one meetings, receive hands-on demos, and dive deeper into MRMC’s full range of solutions.
Among the highlights will be the ATLAS MOCO BULLHEAD Kit, another stellar example of MRMC’s precision robotics in action. Together with the RPS, these systems represent the next phase in intelligent, motion-driven storytelling.
Final Thoughts
In a world where content is king and visuals rule the court, the tools that bring stories to life must evolve. With the RPS, MRMC is not just introducing a new product — it’s opening a door to a creative revolution in studio production. Whether you’re an engineer, a director, or a broadcast visionary, the message is clear: movement matters, and with MRMC, movement is finally free.
