There are provisions for webcam installation, allowing users to incorporate additional functionality into their setup. The EyePod is located at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3314268. This dual mount design replaces two separate mounts with one convenient solution, making it an ideal choice for those who need a reliable and efficient way to manage their EyePods. It's perfect for Inmoov replacement projects, offering a seamless transition from existing setups. Actuation is achieved through standard servos, providing users with a familiar and trusted interface. Video of the dual mount in operation can be viewed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnNXrlJtmyA. Additional parts required for assembly include: - Timing belt: a standard 3D printer 6mm GT2 belt - Eye bearings: four 15x10x4 units - Idler bearings: two 11x4x4 units - Belt bearings: four 11x4x4 units Note: If users prefer not to use bearings, they can print their own using the provided dimensions as a guide. This was done during setup until bearings were available, and fake ones worked well in place of actual bearings. Assembly Notes: Assemble the dual mount with just a bit of slack in the belt. Once screwed together, apply belt tension via the tensioner using a 5mm bolt for optimal results.
