Systems and methods for providing stability support

Systems and methods are provided for providing stability support. The system may include a movable foundation that moves on a surface, and a base rotatably mounted to the movable foundation. A leveling platform may be adjustably mounted to the base and can pivot around a pivoting axis intersecting the base. A control arm connects the leveling platform and the base, and can effect the pivoting of the leveling platform by adjusting the length of the control arm. An alternative system may include a supporting scaffold that is adjustably connected to a movable foundation by at least three control arms. The at least three control arms can change length such that an angle of the supporting scaffold from the movable foundation changes.

Gimbal photographing device

A gimbal photographing device includes a machine body, a foldable mechanism connected with the machine body, and a gimbal camera connected with the foldable mechanism. The gimbal camera is configured to cling to the machine body through the foldable mechanism, and is configured to be positioned in an extended state or a folded state. The machine body includes a support wall configured to support the foldable mechanism and the gimbal camera.

Gimbal photographing device

A gimbal photographing device includes a body having a supporting wall, a folding mechanism connected to the body, and a gimbal camera connected to the folding mechanism. The gimbal camera fits to the body through the folding mechanism, having an expanded state and a folded state. The supporting wall is configured to support the folding mechanism and the gimbal camera. The rotating portion being connected to the supporting wall rotates around a rotation axis, to drive the gimbal camera to rotate relative to the body. The rotation axis is parallel to the supporting wall. In response to the rotating portion driving the gimbal camera to rotate to the expanded state, the rotating portion abuts against the supporting wall. In response to the rotating portion driving the gimbal camera to rotate to the folded state, the gimbal camera attaches to a side wall of the body adjacent to the supporting wall.
