Pi Camera Telescopic Holder

Pi Camera Telescopic Holder

Description

I was hunting for an easy way to mount my Raspberry Pi camera to my Mendel Max in such a way that I could adjust the height and pointing easily. Rather than try to print a full solution and get the fit just perfect, I grabbed an extendable mirror from a local store (Harbor Freight - Pittsburgh P/N 7361) and printed a camera holding head, with a base to fit the mirror handle into. To assemble it, unscrew the end of the mirror handle and remove the pocket clip, then slide it loose into the base stand (no adhesive). It fits snug, but can be rotated freely. The camera holder is attached to the back of the mirror with a piece of double-sided foam tape, and a bit more is used to stick the base to the printer. You could use this on almost any spot you wanted a Pi camera and have a more-or-less horizontal flat surface.
