Reconfigurable Rig Testing

[ra...@vt.edu]

Hi,

The Reconfigurable Rig is a low-cost, open-source KAP rig designed using readily accessible parts from the hardware store and a few laser cut or 3D printed components. 

As the name suggests, it has multiple configuration options such as vertical and horizontal camera orientation modes and a silly putty and rubber band powered pan mechanism. 

Here is a demonstration of the pan mechanism in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqkITRq71wE

The first version is now finished and ready for user testing! Those interested will receive a Reconfigurable Rig kit free of charge and will be asked to give us feedback/suggestions after testing. 

Please contact myself (at ra...@vt.edu) or Mathew Lippincott (at mat...@publiclab.org) if you're interested in participating.

Thank you!
