I would like to add Pan/Tilt to a Tablet to be the Robot Interface

The tablet is 7" and the weight is 370g (0.82 lbs)

some questions/issues:

  1. Tilt servo (Lever Servo) can a EZR HD servo handle 400g ?
  2. I will need a frame similar to (thingiverse):

but with a female EZ-BIT

I'm not familiar with 3d tools, zero "nada" skills!,

  1. anyone did something like that ?

  2. can someone build or adapt an existing frame to support a 7" tablet (119.77 x 196.33 x 15.36 mm) ?

  3. other ideas ?

any help/ideas will be appreciated:)

I don't think so, still is a left/bottom connection, still looking for a back pivot...

You will want a 2 axis gimbal approach. The commercial gimbals pictured above are designed to stabilize the camera. You don't need/want that.

A simple bracket that will hold the tablet and let it tilt about center mounted pivots and that could be rotated at its center for yaw should do it. Maybe this will give you an idea:

@JD wow, nice design. What are the dimentions? for a samsung tablet? Is it possible to adjust the dimentions to fit a ipod touch? that would be cool...

Digi if you tell me the dimension i can resize it. It's simple to resize if you have solidworks - but i can do it if you just tell me the dimensions. width, length, thickness.
