Method and apparatus for stabilizing payloads, including air chambers

air monitoring apparatus (110) comprising: a camera (111) having a camera aperture configured to receive radiation along a devision line, the chamber having also an image field with a first axis image and a second axis substantially transverse to the first axis of the image laimagen, a gimbal system (120) holding the camera, including the gimbal system: a first support (121) coupled to a first actuator (123) to rotate about a first axis (124), wherein the first actuator (123) a first speed capability of action, a second support (122) disposed on the first support and coupled to a second actuator (127) for giraralrededor a second axis (128) transverse to the first axis, holding the second support chamber, presentandoel second actuator a second rate capability performance, a third actuator (131) disposed on the second support to rotate about a third axis (132), pudiendoseacoplar the third actuator operatively camera to rotate the camera relative to the second support being tHE tHIRD axis substantially parallel to the first axis when the second support is at a first posicionangular the second axis, the third axis not parallel to the first axis when the second seencuentra support in a second angular position relative to the second axis, the third actuator one terceracapacidad speed greater than the first rate capability of acting performance; yun operatively coupled to the first, the second and third actuator (123, 127, 131) and estandoconfigurado for directing the movement of the actuators so that controller: when the second support (122) is in the first angular position, the first actuator moves the devision line along the first axis of the image (151) and the second actuator moves the line of sight along axis delsegundo image (152); yWhen the second support (122) is in the second angular position, the actuator moves the devision third line along the first axis of the image and the second actuator moves the line of sight along the segundoeje image.
