Chase Robot — flexible smartphone tripod companion
Chase Robot is a mobile application built to pair with the IJOY Chase 360º smartphone robot. Together they form a motorized phone mount that follows faces and objects automatically, so you can film without asking someone else to hold the camera. The system targets creators who make short-form clips, vlogs, product demos, dance recordings, pet videos, and portraits.
Core capabilities
- Real-time face and object tracking that keeps your subject centered in the frame.
- Fully motorized 360º head for smooth panning and dynamic motion in your shots.
- A wide, adjustable clamp that fits most phone sizes and secures your device while it turns.
- Built-in image filters and visual effects to polish clips before exporting.
- Simple, touch-friendly interface and reliable wireless pairing with the IJOY Chase unit.
Typical ways to use it
- Shooting dance routines and movement-heavy content where continuous tracking matters.
- Capturing pets and wildlife without having to manually reframe each shot.
- Producing short social clips for platforms like TikTok or Instagram Reels.
- Filming unboxings, product demos, and hands-on tutorials.
- Recording vlogs, selfie videos, and other personal footage for YouTube or social profiles.
- Taking landscape or cinematic footage that benefits from smooth automated motion.
Setup and compatibility
Pair the app with the IJOY Chase robot via Bluetooth (or the method specified by your device). Attach your phone to the clamp, open the app, and select face or object tracking. The Chase unit’s 360º moving head will follow the selected subject while the software applies filters or stabilization as configured. The clamp’s adjustability makes it compatible with nearly any modern smartphone.
Why creators pick Chase Robot
Chase Robot streamlines solo production by automating framing and camera movement. It reduces the need for a second person, enables more dynamic footage, and speeds up content creation with an intuitive workflow. Whether you want consistent framing for talking-head videos or smooth follow shots for movement-based clips, the combined hardware-and-app package is designed to simplify the process.
Free editing alternative — CapCut
If you need additional editing tools after capture, CapCut is a widely used free editor that complements what the Chase Robot records. It provides trimming, transitions, effects, and audio tools so you can finish and share polished videos without purchasing extra software.
