Hall Sensing Technology

Traditional infrared sensor scanning positioning hole to locate position, this way positioning accuracy depends on the size of the positioning hole, the smaller the hole, the higher the accuracy, but the diameter of the hole must have at least 1mm diameter, otherwise it is difficult to manufacture.  But if use magnet on filter plate, Hall sensor will detect the center of the magnet, the positioning accuracy is better than infrared sensor.

Hybrid stepping motor

This super thin hybrid stepping motor can provide very smooth rotation, almost no vibration when change the filter position.

Type-C data port

Using USB Type-C port can reduce the thickness of red piece.

Support filters
