Arduino DSLR Camera Pan-Tilt-Slider

Published by Bonzo on

This project was a collaboration with my friend Alex, who built an automated Pan-Tilt-Slider for any camera, capable of moving a decent weight DSLR.
The system had 3 motors that needed to be controlled by a low cost microcontroller [Arduino], same that received signals via Bluetooth through an Android app.
I was responsible for the serial communication via a Bluetooth module, as well as the main logic for the Arduino code.

The Pan-Tilt system without the rail looked like this:


Here are some timelapses that Alex made with the system:
