Hi,
I am probably going to make a robot tripod head controled by an arduino.
I already the arduino and I am going to test some motors soon. Using
this kind of thing can't you put some kind of position sensors in the
tripod head to get the ypr parameters? I thought about some axial
sensor, like some based on resistance or something like that. Don't
really know how precise they can be. They could be connected to the same
arduino on the robot to register the movement. Another possibility is
using step-motors. I also don't know how precise they are, but they do
preset known step rotation. I also don't know if they would be strong
enough to be used on the arm that moves the camera vertically. I was
thinking about using a servo there.
A motor+sensor+feedback combination IS a servo!
