IPi V2i

No silly commercial this time ;)\r\nSo this is a direct iteration of the original IPi V2 (https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-96079)Normally this would be considered a version 2.5, but there were so many small changes, along with a hardware change, that this is instead going to be a separate "Improved" version, so to speak.\r\nWith that being said, this is the list of design changes.\r\nExterior:\r\nThe camera system is significantly slimmer\r\nSeveral sharp corners have been removed from the camera system by chamfering many edges\r\nI/O ports are slightly enlarged for easier access\r\nTaller ventilation ports allow for better airflow\r\nCamera Base is thicker, enabling heavier loads from accidental cord pulls to be handled more effectively\r\nCamera base has been skeletonized and reinforced with an additional wall perimeter for added strength\r\n2 fewer screws are needed to mount the camera pcb\r\nCamera view port is significantly enlarged for improved visibility\r\nCamera sunshade has been lengthened for better protection\r\nCamera body assembly screw points have been relocated closer to the center. (See Note 2)\r\nInterior:\r\nMounting pegs for the raspberry pi zero w have been swapped out for a pass through screw mount (See Note 2)\r\nScrew mount towers now feature a higher chamfer angle relative to their base, making them more stable and less prone to breakage\r\nA bracket has been integrated into the bottom of the camera body to securely hold the camera in place, replacing the 2 previous mounting screws\r\nA socket was designed above the camera view port for the SMD plug to rest against, allowing the camera pcb to sit flush against the mounting surface (SMD socket fits both Camera Module 1.3 and 2.1 SMD Plugs) (See Note 1)\r\nHardware:\r\nThe original IPi V2 used a Pi Camera V1.3, this version has been upgraded to use camera version 2.1 (Both camera versions and their IR variants can be used due to the socket adapter update seen above)\r\nNotes:\r\n(Note 1) Before the socket was built in, the SMD connectors on the front of the camera pcb would cause the pcb to not sit flush with camera mount, and if pushed, would cause the camera to tilt upwards, the socket prevents this\r\n(Note 2) The original screws to combine the lower and upper camera halves were placed near the edges of the enclosure; this caused the walls around the outside edges to split after a short period of time. The new locations make more sense, and are more stable.\r\n \r\nHardware & Software:\r\nHardware:\r\nRaspberry Pi Zero WRaspberry Pi Camera V2.1 or V2.1 IRRaspberry Pi Zero Camera Ribbon CableHDMI to Mini HDMI CableUSB to Micro USB Adapter (for wireless keyboard initial setup before SSH)Micro SD Card (16GB)1A Wall Power SupplyM2 x 15mm ScrewsM2 x 8mm Screws\r\nSoftware:\r\nmotionEyeOS: https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneyeos/releasesVNC: Automatically with the Raspbian OS Image
