Arduino camera slider using a microphone stand

This video is again about camera sliding, but this time electronically with an Arduino UNO and a stepper motor. With this slider it is possible to move a lot slower than with the mechanical version. Another advantage is that it is possible to make a longer slide because the stepper motor can rotate continuously. However, the driver is getting very hot and I have solved this with a fan but a heat sink will probably do too.

The datasheet of the driver can be found here: https://reprapworld.nl/datasheets/datasheet%20drv8825.pdf
