Daniel Norée, instigator behind the popular OpenR/C Project, shared a down-and-dirty camera slider that is outfitted with pockets for Lego motor mounts for LEGO Mindstorm camera automation!
Shared On YouMagine — Simple Camera Slider by Daniel Norée:
I needed a simple camera slider and so I made one. This is basically a quick´n dirty design done in Fusion 360. I´m sure there are tons of designs out there that are a lot better! Anyway, it designed for bronze bushings 16x10x16mm on two 10mm axles. The bushings will snap into place on the camera carriage and I use it like that. It´s possible to secure them using zip ties as well… I also made a pocket to fit a Lego motor to fit in the side brackets for motorized motion of the camera.
