Build a motorized camera slider with Adafruit Feather and CircuitPython! Create HyperSmooth motion timelapse video with this build!Learn Guide: https://learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-motorized-camera-slider/This project uses the Adafruit Feather platform and CircuitPython to make an easy to control motorized camera slider. The build uses aluminum extrusion to support a linear rail system with 3D printed parts. A camera can be mounted to the platform and slide along the rail. You may use the joystick and buttons to trigger different time settings presented on a mini TFT display.FeatherWingsThe mini TFT FeatherWing is perfect for selecting settings and displaying modes! The MotorWing provides the Feather M4 with stepper motor control and makes it easy to connect. A Tripler FeatherWing keeps everything in place and makes it modular.FeaturesThe program features four timing presets to select from using the joystick and switch. 5-min, 10-min, 20-min and 60-min. The status of the slider is displayed while it's in motion. Time remaining is also displayed alongside a nifty graphic and icon. When the slide is approaching the end, a STOP graphic is presented.Circuit Python code by Liz Clark (@BlitzCityDIY)https://www.twitter.com/BlitzCityDIYhttps://www.instagram.com/BlitzCityDIYhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbAUKL7V6OOGumQEeDMYQvQCode on GitHubhttps://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Learning_System_Guides/blob/master/CircuitPython_Slider/code.pyDownload CAD sourcehttp://a360.co/2AMIomgFull Tutorialhttps://learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-motorized-camera-slider/Feather M4https://www.adafruit.com/product/3857Motor FeatherWinghttps://www.adafruit.com/product/2927Stepper Motorhttps://www.adafruit.com/product/324Mini TFT FeatherWinghttps://www.adafruit.com/product/3321Tripler FeatherWinghttps://www.adafruit.com/product/341712V Battery Packhttps://www.adafruit.com/product/875Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com-----------------------------------------LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discordAdafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruitSubscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribeNew tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/-----------------------------------------
