Automated camera arm (is it really a fail if I learned something?)
pileofstuff
I decided to challenge myself and build an automated camera arm without using a microcontroller.
Spoiler: it didn't quite work the way I wanted, but the problem is not what I expected.
On the upside, I did learn quite a bit.
Here's some info about the stepper motor driver I used: https://lastminuteengineers.com/a4988-stepper-motor-driver-arduino-tutorial/
And a previous video I did looking closer at stepper motors: https://youtu.be/XLzlw4YoTRE
