Phillips Hue Motion Sensor Mount

thingiverse

I designed a gimbal mount for the Phillips Hue motion sensor since it wasn't available on their website. Getting the socket to fit the ball with enough friction was crucial. The print process turned out to be quite reliable. Two millimeter picture nails are used to secure the mount to the wall, although you can drill out more room if needed by printing additional outlines. A magnet connects the Hue sensor - it's designed that way. I purchased 5 mm diameter neodymium magnets from Amazon, which are 3 mm deep. They hold in place due to friction, but gluing them down is also an option if desired. I printed this mount in ABS because that's all I had available in white, and I'm not sure how it would perform in PLA. PETG might work well though. There needs to be some flexibility so you can install the socket onto the ball. STL files are included, as well as Autodesk Inventor files if you need to make any adjustments. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00389VRZW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
