Claims13
A system for securing video equipment to an object, said system comprising:
- a gimbal assembly to accommodate at least one type of video equipment having an arm for attaching to said object;
- a dampener base disposed on one side of said arm of said gimbal, wherein said dampener base has vibration concentrating ridges/rings that focus vibrations of said arm into an attached vibration dampener;
- said vibration dampener positioned at a center of said vibration concentrating ridges/rings of said dampener base on said arm of said gimbal assembly such that said vibrations of said arm of said gimbal assembly are focused into said vibration dampener;
- a base facing end of said arm of said gimbal assembly;
- a quick release clip attached to said base facing end of said arm of said gimbal assembly;
- and
- wherein said gimbal assembly is attachable to said object via a base plate, wherein said object is a vibration causing object, and wherein said base plate is connected to said quick release clip attached to said arm of said gimbal assembly.
