Webcam Tower

thingiverse

This is a automated two-axis webcam! It's also called the "Sauron Tower". The Webcam Tower is powered by two 28bjy-48 5V Stepper motors and an Arduino. Arduino source and desktop client (windows) is attached to the source files. My (very simple) software is also capable to make simple Panorama Images. Often you have to edit the "settings.ini"-file to specify something. My printer is a Reprap Prusa. The camera is normally attached and The Webcam and the stepper motors are buyed from Ebay. if you have any questions about the software or other things, just write me a comment :) Instructions Just print the parts. There is nothing special here. Minimal wall-thickness is 2mm. If you start the Software an "settings.ini"-file will be created and you probably will see a message that its failed to open com connection- that's normal. Close the Software and edit the created "settings.ini"-file and change the value "com=36" to "com="[your com Port] and restart the Software. if you start the Webcam and there is a white image click on "Settings..." and change the codec to "YUY2". if you found an error, yust write it to the comments.
