// esp32cam-enc.scad // // A pan/tilt mounting box for esp32-cam crafted in openscad for // a very cool wireless esp32 video/still camera board that only costs around $5. // // The enclosure can be printed for about $0.60 in filament. // // The camera board and lens are held securely in a recess in the top case and // are secured when the bottom half is pressed on. // // The lens is recessed to help eliminate glare and maybe prevent some lens damage. // // This version has no hole for the power cord as you may want to use everything from // a USB connector, a 2.1mm dc socket or a hardwired cable to provide 5V // to the board. A hole would be easy to add in the "module bottom()". // // // by L Glaister VE7IT 17 Dec 2019 // // // If you use the sd card slot, you may want to enable supports for printing // to get a cleaner slot. (slot needs to be enabled in "module camera()") // an additional slot would have to be added to "module bottom()" if you want access // to the card from outside the enclosure. I did not add this as the camera is // just used to stream video/stills to a recording server running zone minder. // // I was more worried about keeping the weather and bugs out of the camera enclosure. // // The enclosure is not waterproof, but should survive if keep out of the direct rain. // // I will mount mine under the eaves in 3 places to monitor the yard around the house. // // The enclosure was kept small and compact to make it less conspicuous. Printing // in a color that matches your soffits will help it blend in. // // All 3 parts needed for the case print nicely together on a small 3d printer.
