The Pan&Tilt setup for NetCamera. This is the final prototype for the time being. It runs on a PIC16F876 and connectors are available to program and configuere the system.
Source code in C
Here you find some of the code that is used in this project: Sample sourcecode
Pan&Tilt system, engine detail
Here you can see the setup for the X and Y engines The engines have a power line and a pulsewith input. Pulses range from 1 ms to 2 ms in 1 us steps. An internal circuit matches the engine angle to the suppied pulse.
Pan & Tilt system
View of the camera pan & tilt. Standard servo motors are used to drive the camera horizontaly and vertically. For first tests a Basic Stamp BS2 and a breadboard are used (not shown). Later a PIC16F876 will do the job.
Prototype 1b, overview
Top view Here you can see the camera, some of the pan & tilt, the new blue box and the electronics prototype (Basic Stamp).
Prototype 1b
Pan&Tilt mounted on its box. The blue box will hold electronics and batteries for the servo motors.
