iPhone 6/6S Security Cam Stand

thingiverse

Goal here was to craft a straightforward, robust camera holder that would keep my old iPhone 6 firmly positioned at a 90-degree angle on a flat surface. Many people might not be aware that you can repurpose old phones, tablets, iPod touches, etc. as home security devices. The app I use, presence, enables both rear and front-facing camera views when accessing remotely, so having both cameras at a useful angle was crucial. If it's tilted up or down, only one camera is functional. I'm planning to create another version that incorporates a small mirror which can be attached at a 45-degree angle to allow watching around both sides of a corner. Another enhancement would be a small 5v motor operating a swivel back and forth. This same concept can also be used as a DIY baby or pet monitor. Please let me know if you'd like the file enlarged for your personal device, I'm aware that I need to create another for iPhone 7 since it is slightly wider. Thanks and please post pictures of your creations!
