50M Seamless Focus, Limitless Possibilities
Powered by Advanced AI & Virtual Lens Modeling
LIVE AIR 4 SMART features a dual upgrade in hardware and intelligent algorithms, breaking through the autofocus distance limits of the previous generation LiDAR motor. It now supports longer-range autofocus and unlocks a wider range of creative applications.
20000+
Since the release of REMOTE AIR APP in 2015, users have shared over 20,000 sets of lens data with us
512+
Through analysis and extraction of the data, we have built a set of 512 virtual lens models
Simulated Lens Data
During calibration, the system selects the lens model that most closely matches the actual lens. U sing AI algorithms, it then generates accurate virtual lens data.
Data Integration
Via the motor’s Type-C port, control protocols and even LiDAR data can be shared with third-party devices such as robotic arms or virtual production systems—enabling seamless collaborative workflows.
Smarter with Dual LiDAR
A Classic, Upgraded
The LiDAR motor has been fully upgraded—introducing the all-new MOTOR SMART with improved indicator layout and enhanced torque. While retaining all core features and the precise LiDAR ranging module from the previous generation, it now adds an innovative long-range LiDAR module. This groundbreaking dual-LiDAR system delivers a new level of performance in both short and long distances.
Short-Range LiDAR
Max 5M Autofocus Distance
28° Scanning Angle
Long-Range LiDAR
Max 20M(AI-virtualized to 50M) Autofocus Distance
6°(AI-virtualized to 12°) Scanning Angle
Incredible Range & Precision
Whether shooting indoors or outdoors, under bright sunlight or in complete darkness, LIVE AIR 4 SMART delivers consistently accurate LiDAR autofocus.
Up to 20m autofocus range in indoor environments
Up to 15m autofocus range even under strong outdoor sunlight
Built-in Gyroscope
AI-Powered Virtual Focus Tracking
Equipped with a high-performance LiDAR module and built-in gyroscope, LIVE AIR 4 SMART integrates AI-based virtual learning technology to intelligently record and learn focus paths during shooting. Using this data, the system can simulate and predict focus within a 12° tracking field of view—enabling virtual autofocus performance at distances up to 50 meters. This ensures smoother and more stable focus transitions, even with fast-moving subjects.
Once the object moves out of the scanning range, the AI's virtual 12-degree field of view will quickly predict and lock onto the focus, preventing sudden drastic changes in focus that could damage the image.
When the subject moves beyond the LiDAR's physical range, the AI uses lens modeling to estimate movement and automatically shifts focus to 50 meters or infinity—preventing sudden focus drops or visual glitches.
Dual LiDAR Modules for Enhanced Autofocus
Wide-Area + Narrow-Beam Focusing Technology
Multiple Focusing Modes to
Empower Your Creativity
Hybrid Focusing Mode
Simultaneous Use of Short and Long-Range LiDAR Modules
In Hybrid Mode, both the short-range and long-range LiDAR modules work together:When the subject is within 5 meters, the system prioritizes data from the short-range LiDAR for precise measurement. Once the subject moves beyond that range, the long-range LiDAR seamlessly takes over—maintaining stable and accurate autofocus across varying distances.
Narrow-Beam Focusing Mode
Long-Range LiDAR Takes the Lead
Narrow-Beam Focusing Mode uses only the long-range LiDAR for distance measurement and autofocus, reducing power consumption. Its key advantage: regardless of subject distance or complex environments with multiple nearby objects, you only need to align the LiDAR beam with the intended subject (e.g., when the motor is mounted directly below the lens, the beam aligns just below the monitor’s crosshair) to achieve accurate focus lock. This mode effectively prevents focus shift caused by multi-target interference, making it ideal for capturing small objects or scenes that demand high-precision focusing.
Double Power Mode
Higher Frame Rates, Every Frame in Focus
When the MOTOR SMART is powered via USB-C and the battery level remains above 95%, the system will automatically enter Double Power mode. In this mode, the LiDAR ranging refresh rate can reach up to 960Hz, and the motor's peak instantaneous torque can reach 1.2Nm, ensuring frame-by-frame focusing as long as the LiDAR detects a subject—every frame remains sharp and clear. (As long as the USB-C power supply remains connected, the Double Power mode can be sustained for extended periods. This mode requires the motor to operate in the high-speed focus gear.)
Fore/Back Focus Switching Mode
Focus lock on the nearest or farthest object within the LiDAR scanning range.
It is possible to configure the autofocus logic within the short-range LiDAR scanning range by connecting a control handwheel, allowing for either foreground focus lock or background focus lock.
When the controller is rotated to the nearest focus position
The motor locks focus on the background
Master–Slave Mode
It can both transmit and receive—functioning as a follow focus and a LiDAR controller.
The LiDAR motor on the LIVE AIR 4 SMART is more than just a follow focus—it's also a rangefinder and controller. You can mount the LiDAR motor anywhere, adjust its angle, use its ranging function independently, and connect it via Bluetooth to older Bluetooth motors or the PD4-HT controller to drive other motors for autofocus.
Manual Control Mode
An ultra-low-latency, fully wireless follow focus powerhouse.
At its core, the LIVE AIR 4 SMART is a powerful yet easy-to-use wireless focus system. When LiDAR autofocus isn’t needed, it supports manual wireless control with high torque and ultra-low latency—giving you a hands-on, traditional shooting feel.
Open Data Protocol
The upgraded MOTOR SMART features a USB-C port for both power and data transmission. With SDK support, control access and LiDAR data are open to third-party systems—ideal for integration with robotics, arms, and other large-scale mobile rigs.
LiDAR in Real-World Applications
The LIVE AIR 4 SMART is highly versatile—ideal for professional film crews, small indie studios, or solo shooters—delivering stable and efficient focus control for any setup.
Gimbal Orbit Shots
Handheld Freestyle Shooting
Car-Mounted Filming
Three Adjustable Focus Speeds
High Speed
Fast and responsive—instantly locks onto the subject. Perfect for capturing fast-moving action.
Medium Speed
Balanced and versatile—ideal for most general shooting scenarios.
Low Speed
Smooth and subtle transitions—perfect for cinematic shots with gentle focus shifts.
Compatible with Most Manual Focus Lenses
The LIVE AIR 4 SMART autofocus system works with most manual-focus cinema and DSLR lenses that have built-in focus stops. It also supports certain electronic DSLR lenses without hard stops—especially those with depth-of-field scales and linear manual focus capability.
Up to 6 Hours of Extended Battery Life
