I would like to add Pan/Tilt to a Tablet to be the Robot Interface
besides the rotation & lever servo i will need: Clip'n'Play Adapter Plate Extension Cube
similar too:
The tablet is 7" and the weight is 370g (0.82 lbs)
some questions/issues:
- Tilt servo (Lever Servo) can a EZR HD servo handle 400g ?
- I will need a frame similar to (thingiverse):
but with a female EZ-BIT
I'm not familiar with 3d tools, zero "nada" skills!,
anyone did something like that ?
can someone build or adapt an existing frame to support a 7" tablet (119.77 x 196.33 x 15.36 mm) ?
other ideas ?
any help/ideas will be appreciated
Your call
@ptp, If you can pivot the tablet around the balance point you will put minimum strain on the servos. For ideas, look at drone photo gimbals.
That's a good point boy builder. Should I add the clip to the back? Rather than the bottom, so it's balanced weight distribution?
@DJ,
Why not put a mount clip at both places? A pivot point at the center of each edge would allow gimbal like movements.
Good idea. Here... PanandTiltTablet.STL
I found this setup interesting:
"Zero" position
"Down"
"Right"
The bracket on the right side will allow the top cameras located on front & back to work without being blocked by a vertical frame.
It seems a nice fit, but instead of a lever servo, is needed two rotation servos, but is need also a special bracket to connect the top rotation servo with the horizontal servo or i'm missing something ?
@DJ, Do you think the Gimbal setup will minimize the servos force ?
wow, while grabbing the pictures and uploading Speed DJ put a new post!
@DJ/Oldbot
the gimbal setup to a back pivot is something like this:
or there is any alternative to vertical frame blocking the back camera ?
