A Different Perspective

New Camera Orientation

Overview

A new mount was needed for the bottom-facing OAK-D Poe camera on the sub such that we would have clear vision of any forward-facing manipulators we may put onto the robot, without interfering with the front facing camera's FOV.  This mount features a cantilever design such that it is mounted to the sub frame off to the side, while holding the camera steady above the middle front. The current iteration of this mount attached to our sub is made out of PLA, but will likely be remade in nylon in the future for increased rigidity.
