I downloaded the free app and use my iphone with the camera-robot. I am not very tech savvy and found it easy to set up. The first time I used it it worked without any problem after just a few minutes. The second time the camera couldn't follow the tag, then I found out that one of the beacons wasn't charged enough. After a fresh charge everything worked again. I use it for my own riding training or use it when I teach riding lessons. The student only needs to download the app and wear the tag. It is a great service for me as a horse riding teacher to provide to my clients that they can film each of their lessons without needing an extra camera person!
In the past I’ve used another (cheaper) system, but this was unreliable. Pixem never lets me down! Easy set up and it tracks you no matter the color of your horse, the position of the sun or other horses around or in the school. It stays with you. It’s easy to set up. I set it up first, then prepare my horse and just before putting the briddle on, I turn the beacons and camera on, fix camera on beacon 1, get on my horse, connect the watch with the robot and start filming.
Only had one issue when I had accidently swapped beacon 1 and 3, so my own fault.
Have now used the product a couple of times now. Very decent tracking. One thing that might be good to build into the next firmware update, is the ability to record at the end of the hockey pitch rather than side. This would probably be a good addition as I know many national hockey teams prefer this angle.
Last week my pix4team robot arrived and now I had a chance for a first test (handball). And I have to say, the results are better than expected. Yes, there are still some situations, that could be filmed better. But for me it was quite good straight out of the box. With some small adjustments and some firmware updates in the future it should get almost perfect I think
I have used the pix4team to film rugby for a whole season now and it has been great. That's once I stopped messing with the settings or actually understood what each setting does! I can set the camera up and leave it to do it's thing. The only thing that is a little annoying is that it misses scrums, lineouts and breakdowns when they are on the same sideline as the robot (it tends to focus on the fullback for some reason. Or maybe it is movement on the opposite sideline?). But as soon as the play moves it quickly switches back to where the ball is. After the game it is easy to take the footage off the robot and camera and review it however I like. And a part from the issue I mentioned, everything is there to review. Great product. Thanks Pix4Team.
Hello
Thank you for your message & your positive review on the PIX4TEAM rugby!
There are indeed still some actions like scrums, lineouts and breakdowns that could be tracked better and our R&D is currently working on that can for a next firmware update!
We have tried to record 3 games so far, 1st game only recorded 6 minutes, 2nd game did not record at all and the 3rd it recorded but the camera not once followed a play. iPad could not connect with equipment, kept getting the same message "UNALBE OT CONNECT". deleted the app multiple times and the problem continued. MOVE N SEE do not have a customer service number in the US. So if you live in the US I suggest you really consider buying this product we are really in our own for help.
There is no option or we have not found the way in the app to start recording from the app. You have to start recording 15 minutes before the game starts, extend the tripod to the high desired and then do all the steps to set up the camera. I hope next software upgrade you can do all that from the app, START, PAUSE AND STOP recording.
SO far I do not think buying this recording device was a good investment, I really hope things get better.
Hello, thank you for your message and very sorry to read this.
Our customer service is based in France but no worries, we are always here to help within 24-48 hours by email, tchat, phone, video call. And of course, our team is fully bilingual!
I confirm that ipad are compatible with the product, and you should also be able to launch record from the app, so we will help to check what is happening so that you can enjoy your PIX4TEAM robot as soon as possible.
Kind regards

I have had my Pixem 2 a few weeks. I love it. Best money i have spent.
I use it for my riding and yoga. Realized my plank looks more like a tent :) Being able to review my rides in private is so helpful as i am self conscious about being videoed and people watching me.
There was an issue with my phone not connecting to app after a Samsung update last week. Customer Service was wonderful and were super responsive, helpful and got it fixed with the app in short time.
I am sure my mare is appreciative too as after just a few uses i am riding better. Thanks
