Motorized pan & tilt head for panoramic photos. It is controlled by a Arduino like board and is put in motion by two Tower Pro SG 5010 servos through two worm gears for smooth motion and high torque

Laser cut parts

In the mean time i've quit using the quadrature mouse encoders for horizontal and vertical position

and i started the implementation of a 9DOF IMU from SparkFun and a MediaTek MT3329 GPS in order to transform

this panoramic and tilt head in to a astronomy head.
