Description

This is my creation to mount a camera on the A1 Mini stepper. The main reason for doing this is 1) because the camera on the A1 is so poor and 2) so I can use spaghetti detection in Obico (you can read how to do this here). Theoretically, you could put any camera on the GoPro mount, but the picture and BOM's is designed around the Arducam USB camera (which natively works in OctoPrint/OctoPi).

 

Update: Now includes built in Nut and printable bolt. If you already have a GoPro bolt, you can use yours.

 

BOM:

 

My setup:

  • I have a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W (frequently available for $15 - Pishop.us)
  • Running Octopi OS (This Youtube video has a decent walkthrough on what is needed to get Octopi and Octoprint running on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W).
    • You will need a Micro SD card
    • Micro USB to USB-A adapter (for Arducam)
    • Micro USB power supply/adapter
  • After installing Octopi, follow my instructions here to get the plugins and files needed to “fool” your Bambu printer into working with Obico. Obico has a free plan and also has a self-hosted option.
  • I also have a Tasmota-compatible plug to plug my Bambu into. Cloudfree has a number of options pre-flashed with Tasmota and work well with the Octoprint Tasmota plugin: Sonoff and CloudFree Plug.

Just curious coach, along with spaghetti detection, can you also still do time lapses just like with bambu studios a1 camera or is that all sorta in that coding stuff you linked us too. i have an a1.. This is something i would really like to do to upgrade my experience on it..

Yes, with Obico or with Octoprint itself, you can get the timelapse and I don’t have to get it off the SD card.
