3-Axis Camera Slider

This is a build to make a 3-axis camera slider from scratch not only the software but also all the hardware. The concept involves a control panel with a TFT LCD as an interface and a few potentiometers. This will then send all necessary info to a custom PCB card that will drive the slider's 3 axes.The settings this will enable:<ul ><li >Calibration mode - to set up the stepper motors to step 0</li></ul><ul ><li >Manual mode </li></ul>Drive all 3 axes by joystick to, for example, make a movie.<h3 >Timelapse mode </h3><ul ><li >Set the amount of pictures you would like to take</li></ul><ul ><li >Set the interval time</li></ul><ul ><li >Set the exposure time</li></ul>You will also have the option to set the start and endpoint of the camera movement on all 3 axes.This is my very basic test set up. As I make progress, this rig slowly gets more complex.<figure><img src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/76b852b7-c5e9-458d-98d5-e8cc0e6e2fd5.jpeg /><figcaption> </figcaption></figure>The Tilt and Pan function is the next I will work on, both the mechanical part and the coding.The PCB design is well under way.<figure><img src=https://projects.arduinocontent.cc/881c9b95-13c5-4597-a274-568d5a35a13b.jpg /><figcaption> </figcaption></figure>All of this is, at the moment, not working and not started yet. This is where I would like to end up when it's done but a lot of work is left to do.

3-Axis Camera Slider

A camera slider with both timelapse and manual control - all via a TFT LCD and Bluetooth. There is still a lot of work to be done.
