- I built a camera slider with a stepper motor controlled by an Arduino. Made with inexpensive parts intended for 3D printers and made with 3D printed parts. This project combines mechanics, electronics and programming in one useful and functional package

Your construction seems very efficient and robust. Special mention for the software part and speed control. I can't wait to build it!
That menu system is awesome. Great job, mate!
Love it! Also, I am so glad I am not the only one who gets everything done then makes one small mistake and destroys everything the moment just before getting to use it for the first time. I thought I was the only one, really I did. Thank goodness I'm not. :) Awesome video and design. Thanks for sharing.
Cool menu and graphics 👍🏼
Great animations, explanations, demonstration of the utility at the beginning. I really like your waypoints and implementation, wonder if anyone ever got that done.
This is AMAZING !! The graphics are great as well as the entire build. Good Job I cannot wait to see the end product with everything working. Mating it with a 3D printer would be insane. Maybe a simple laser ranging circuit that keeps track of the build plate on printer. I am sure you have this all planned and waiting for the time to attack. Thank you
I love your project I will make one soon and then make all the files free for people to use too. Thank you
This is a great idea!
looks like the SLIDER of all prusa machine haha
Great build, and I love this idea! There are two tweaks I might make. First, a shutter release, which would be easier with some models of camera than others, but mine just uses a TRS. Ground the ring to focus, and ground the tip to trigger the shutter. Second would to move the manual control over to a serial input, e.g. use a script on a PC to define where to move, how fast to move there, and when to activate the AF/shutter.
I'm definitely going to revisit this when my 3d printer gets here. I think there are more applications here. Imagine a fully automated dolly zoom...
Rreally interesting idea! And beautiful menu too! Outstanding ^_^ Auto timelapse mode?
that is relay nice keep going
Awesome work man! Was wondering if you can edit the STL file without the nonfunctioning buttons? Like a more simplified version?
Hey, is there a part 2 of this? this is awesome. I'd like to see what you do with all the parts that are not being used
I can imagine how much time you spent on animations xD Probably more than assembly :P
Sounds about right 😂
Really nice build! Way underrated channel. What is that arm on top of the slider? Is this a magnetic arm? I would appreciate it if you would have a link to that. Thanks and keep up with your videos!
I like this a lot! Though it looks like using a peg on the slider to tension the belt would cause higher tension around the end of the slide than in the middle.
Then again, it probably doesn't even matter. I mean it's a camera slider, not a high precision laser gantry.
Much. thank you for the video!
Only today I managed to buy all the electronics to start the assembly and I had a doubt.
I don't know how to program and that's why I can't make the code to happen an infinite loop between the points A B. Can you help me? Thanks again!!
you have the fusion files ?! i will try to edit the mounting point from the main case (im not so good to edit a stl file in fusion..)
nice!
but I dont understand why on my arduino 328P , graphics is slow.
Hi, this is amazing. I have a manual slider I've wanted to motorize for ages... have you completed the waypoint system code, or you have you moved on from this ;-) Great video. New sub.
BTW one question: I have a DJI Ronin-S gimbal for my camera, and I was hoping to use it on the camera slider... my camera is quite heavy (Panasonic GH4 plus Sigma 18-35mm lens is over 1kg). Will this work with the stepper motor you used? I'd like to be able to pull a 45% incline with this setup, so that I can use the Ronin app to programme moves as the motor slider moves... hence my interest in your waypoints, which would be just too good to be true!
The waypoints were never completed unfortunately. The motor should be able to move camera you've mentioned
@@Gyro1 thanks for the reply! I'm going to use your working code as the base, to have a manual and auto mode. I already have an Arduino One and a Keypad Shield LCD1602 that I bought with this project in mind ages ago, so thanks for the inspiration!
I think I'll have a go at implementing three waypoint buttons: Left, Middle and Right. Perhaps the buttons would be on an infra-red remote, so I can operate it whilst being in the video. I've never programmed an Arduino, so I've no idea how difficult or easy it will be, but my idea would be to have a pre-programmed acceleration profile/curve setting and then just enter a travel time in seconds with the jog wheel. For my purposes, the travel time is the key setting control I want to have. The buttons would then set the distance, and speed will take care of itself. I'll have a look at some of the commercial products available and see how their menus work for clues.
So in use, the idea would be that if the slider is in position Right, and I press button Left, it would travel to the left in the 'travel time' entered. If I press the Middle button, it will travel there in half the time; and pressing Left after that it would then proceed to the left. Or pressing Right would take be back to the start position. The LCD could display the acceleration mode (if there is one, I'm not sure if I need this or not) and the travel time, perhaps showing elapsed time as well.
If I can figure out how to do it, it would be nice to be able to move the "Middle" button position by selecting an X value, or even better by moving the slider to a position and capturing that position... the formulas could then be calculated with this X value... but maybe that's too ambitious! I'll have a look at your unfinished waypoint code to see if that can be adapted for this use.
The rest of the parts would be copied from your specification. For the manual use jog wheel, I think I'll use an off-the-shelf CNC hand wheel pulse encoder. Since I have the LCD1602 keypad/display, I'll use the buttons on that for setup and manual control. Does this sound like a doable plan for a complete novice at arduino programming? I plan to start with some Arduino programming tutorials I've found online, and of course study your code. Then I can experiment. Any pointers most welcome!
Good luck man. If you're familiar with any kind of programming, it shouldn't be too hard. You don't really need any acceleration curves if you have enough torque. Maybe a bigger motor wouldn't be a bad idea
@@Gyro1 thanks... I'll go for the bigger motor then I think, and explore from there. No programming experience at all! So I may have to just drop the waypoint idea if I get stuck lol... I'll let you know how I get on.
@@Gyro1 you may want to check out Stephen Hawes' channel if you haven't discovered him yet: he's an automation guy, into 3D printers and cameras too. He has a video controlling a camera slider with 3 axis gimbal (3D printed of course) via Klipper-controlled microcontrollers, programmed in Blender! No kidding: he uses Blender's animation software to create a move in 3D space, and he's created a plugin that converts the coordinates data into G-code that Klipper can use to control his camera slider! Thought you'd love it...
Hi can this be done on an already bought cheap slider? And also, is there a tripod mount file too? 😅
Yes. You can modify existing slider. There is no file for the tripod mount. I just attached the tripod to the aluminum profile
Please build a 2 axis orbiting camera mount for 3d printer time lapse :)
Damn. I was actually thinking about that 😂
@@Gyro1 That would awesome. I am just a pup in this game, more of a data guy (work). I've see a few people on youtube doing some sort of 2 axis videos. I've been thinking about 3 but decided it would be to hard to pull off and still use octolapse or a pi connected camera. One thought was halve circle axis' that look kind of like a gyro (no pun). Would have to be size for your printer (hopefully an MK3 :p )
What nice♡♥♡♥
Кросавчик,такой слайдер разработать,я хочу повторить!!!
Work it
Thingiverse link? :)
Dude you're too quick :D Im working on it :D
