Gimbal for Dummies
A smart and intuitive AutoSteady design is truly a Gimbal for “Dummies”. Simply insert a cell phone into the clamp, turn on the gimbal and you are ready to shoot super smooth videos. Should you accidentally knock the gimbal out of alignment, automatic recovery is instantaneous. Unlike traditional gimbals, with the AutoSteady there is no complicated startup procedure or frustrating downtime between shoots.
Brushless FOC Encoder Motors
Implemented with state-of-the-art FOC technology, extra light and compact AutoSteady brushless motors possess almost twice the power of stock brushless motors, giving you more versatility and durability. And when high precision sensors are supplemented with state-of-the-art encoder technology, this intelligent device is able to track and constantly align all motors for proper orientation in real time.

Cutting Edge Gimbal Controller
Programmed to intuitively follow your every move, the AutoSteady also smooths and filters out undesirable jitter for stunning video action. Whether following someone up a staircase, taking a ride on a skateboard or poking out of a sunroof, you will get amazingly stabilized footage.
User Friendly Ergonomic Features & Options
For easy mounting and removal, AutoSteady’s spring loaded clamp features dual rubber grip that won’t scratch your phone. To prevent fatigue and maximize comfort on extended shoots, the AutoSteady ergonomic handle is rubberized with a slip-free grip. Unlike typical lethargic gimbal startups, the AutoSteady is an opportunist by design. Power up and the gimbal instantaneously and automatically levels off to capture that fleeting moment. Mobilize your shoot by following subjects while the gimbal compensate for any uneven shoulder turns and arm movements. Extend the AutoSteady's reach and movement with a selfie stick or take it on wheels. The possibilities are endless.

Development Process


Our goal is to create a hassle-free gimbal that allows an operator to freely move around and create production-quality videos with an everyday phone. Reflecting our core principle in providing the ultimate end user experience, every Neuvison product starts with a robust structure, utilizing premium parts and components. Then, we load an endless array of versatile functions targeted for different applications. And with meticulous attention to detail, we finish each model with ergonomic features that are both practical and visually appealing. From conception to prototype to manufacturing, the AutoSteady is an intensive project that has taken more than 9 months.

Neuvison Brushless Gimbal Development
Before the invention of brushless gimbals, Neuvison had been a prolific developer of brushless motors and stabilizing components for gimbals. Hence, it was a natural move for Neuvison to leverage that experience in developing the AutoSteady.
