SteadyStream Tracker

SteadyStream Tracker is designed to work primarily with DJI smartphone gimbals, such as the DJI Osmo Mobile 6 and the OM 5, using Bluetooth connectivity. Because it utilizes standard gimbal motor commands, it may also work with other Bluetooth-enabled smartphone stabilizers like the Zhiyun Smooth series. However, full functionality is best guaranteed on DJI hardware.

Yes, the SteadyStream Tracker software uses advanced vector mapping and predictive algorithms to anticipate a subject's movement, making it far superior to the native tracking apps on most gimbals. This allows you to keep a runner perfectly centered in the frame even if you are running behind them. The software pre-emptively moves the gimbal motors to avoid jerky, delayed panning.

No, once the SteadyStream Tracker software is downloaded to your smartphone, it operates entirely locally using the phone's internal neural engine and camera processor. It does not require a Wi-Fi or cellular connection to track subjects or control the gimbal motors. This makes it highly reliable for shooting video in remote, off-grid locations.

Because the software requires constant screen-on time, heavy CPU/GPU usage for vector mapping, and active Bluetooth communication with the gimbal, it is a severe battery drain. You will likely notice your smartphone battery depleting significantly faster than when using the native camera app. It is highly recommended to carry a power bank if you plan on filming for more than an hour.
