I crafted an articulated camera mount specifically for the Raspberry Pi's camera, incorporating marvelous joints from TinkerPlay into a system that lets you choose how many joints you need in your mount. This build is largely based on a previous project with some significant tweaks: nearly all parts were created anew. The only exceptions are the case and pieces of the camera bracket. Notable updates: 17 January 2016 - I added a through hole to frame_clip.stl, allowing users to secure elastic with a knot to facilitate articulation. 31 December 2015 - The 'Work in Progress' flag was removed as this design has worked exceptionally well, necessitating minimal additional development. 7 July 2015 - An enhanced 8020 clip was introduced that attaches internally rather than externally; the original is now named external_frame_clip.stl. 23 April 2015 - I have personally tested this design with excellent results. Try it out and kindly share your feedback. Instructions Print one of each part, except for arm_joint.stl which you'll need several; I recommend starting with three and adding more as needed. Assembly is relatively straightforward: the camera fits snugly into case_front.stl, while case_back.stl simply clips on. Secure the two parts together with M3 screws and nuts via camera_bracket.stl's holes. Then, insert as many arm_joint.stl pieces as necessary and attach it to the frame! One useful tip is to employ some rubber material (from a hair tie or rubber band), forming a knot at one end and guiding it through the joints before tying off on the other end. This enables smooth articulation by countering joint forces.
