Ender 3 Rear Camera Mount and Housing with LED Lighting

prusaprinters

Pi Camera Housing and Mount with integrated LED Lighting. Removable Mount Joint to allow for alternate options. Mounting the Camera at the rear keeps the camera out of the way and is an easy guide for the rear clearance needed for the bed wiring (Designed to be about as far back as those cables go). LEDs are hooked up to the 5V power from my PI with a resistor and are set-up on a photo sensitive relay so they only turn on when the LEDs in the Enders frame turn off (PI cuts power to Printer with a second relay after print job for safety). Version on my printer is an earlier revision , added more clearance for the bed , added an overlapping to the housing to stop light leakage and updated the hinge, could not be bothered reprinting as its currently working with a bit of filing and a zip tie. Updated version would not require either of these. 1X 12mm M4 bolt for the Joint along with a wing nut . 5X 7-8mm M3 Bolts to attached the hinge to the bracket and mount. 4X 12mm M3 Bolts to Close the camera housing and Bracket to Y stepper motor. 10X 5mm White LEDs for lighting 1X V1 Pi Camera and Cable Optional Relay - Need to de-solder the Photo resistor and add in some longer wires to where ever you main light source is. Edit - 25/11/2019 Updated Rear of the Camera Housing to add more clearance.
