DIY Camera Slider, motorized, Arduino controlled, updated 2024-04

DIY Camera Slider for less than 100€. With object tracking and controlled by an Arduino Nano. Power supply with standard power bank (10,000 mAh). Thus mobile and flexible
usable.

Most bigger parts are printed with 15-20% infill.

All parts are listed in file “partlist.txt”

Updated the electronic schema. You need an additional resistor about 120 Ohm between +-, to prevent a used Power bank to shutdown.

I made a stronger rotary lever for the tripod with a much bigger bearing.
This result in a better and soft movement of the Tripod.

You need a bearing 10mm (inner) x 16mm (outer) x 5mm (thickness).
The parts are designed with less toleranz. Depending on your printer,
you might need some work with sandpaper. The bearing should be pressed
into the lever at the end. I added a picture, showing how it looks.

2024-04  Camera Slider Upgrade / Improvement, Verbesserung

Umbau der Rollen und Verwendung 3D Drucker Rollen. Dies führt zu einem deutlich ruhigeren und spielfreien Lauf des Sliders. In diesem Video zeige ich detailiert, wie der Umbau durchgeführt wird und welche Teile benötigt werden.

converting the rollers and using 3D printer rollers. This leads to one significantly quieter and play-free running of the slider. In this video I show in detail how the conversion was carried out
and what parts are needed.
