Give Your Camera Work Robotic Cleanliness By Building Lewis Aburrow's 3D-Printed Slider

Maker Lewis Aburrow has designed a 3D-printable robotic camera slider for pro-level cinematic-grade operation, complete with optional battery for field use — powered by two Espressif microcontrollers, from the ESP32 and ESP8266 families.

"It's designed for live video work, product shots and motion timelapses, with programmable speed, acceleration, and movement time. You can build it for tabletop use, tripod mounting, mains power, or with an optional Ryobi battery adapter for portable filming."

The hardware used in the build is a combination of standard aluminum extrusion combined with 3D-printed parts, driven by a pair of low-cost TMC2209 drivers connected to NEMA 17 stepper motors. The theme of low-cost components continues with Aburrow's choice of microcontrollers: a Lolin Wemos D1 Mini, built around Espressif's ESP8266 microcontroller, serves...
