Abstract

Moves objects through two/three dimensional space via at least one movement line coupled with opposing sides of a platform. The movement line(s) control the horizontal and vertical (Z-axis) motion of the platform. Displacing a portion of the movement line(s) allows vertical displacement of the platform. There is no need for complex computer control since Z-axis displacement is substantially independent of horizontal movement. Nested embodiments utilizing one or more line allow for three-dimensional movement of an object or angular displacement of the platform with respect to the vertical axis. A mounting beam for positioning and supporting the Z-axis and horizontal axis motors may also be positioned independently of the platform. Many useful devices may be attached to the platform. Some embodiments may utilize two lines to provide redundancy and some of these embodiments may only drive one of the two lines for Y axis movement.
