Pi - iP Cam

cults3d

I've been wanting to install an IP camera on my CR-10 Printer for a while now. With multiple projects piling up and increasingly longer print times, I need a way to monitor my printer remotely. Why not use Octoprint, you ask? Well, I've been printing for about 5 to 6 years, and in the past, I tried Octoprint but encountered several issues. Although I'm not sure how the latest version performs, maybe I'll give it another shot in the future. For this project, I aimed to make the camera case as compact as possible. Fortunately, a Raspberry Pi Zero W was lying around, which is perfect for this endeavor. To control the Pi, I opted for GPIO pins, providing a push-button to turn the Pi on/off, an LED indicator to show its status, and a separate power supply to avoid using USB. Since it's been a while since I last used my milling machine, I decided to utilize it as well. If you don't own a milling machine, don't worry; I've included both STL and DXF files for printing and milling respectively. Shopping List: * Raspberry Pi Zero W * Raspberry Pi Cam * 1x Low-current 5mm LED * 1x NO push switch * 18x 2.2 x 6.5 mm screws * 2x M4 T-nuts * 2x M4 x 10 hex bolts For the transparent pieces, I used 3mm polycarbonate. I'm using Motioneye for this project: https://github.com/ccrisan/motioneye/wiki If you're unsure about anything or have questions, feel free to reach out at bishop-creations@ziggo.nl.
