There are definitely a number of motorized gimbals you can mount a camera to. Gives you more flexibility. Just need to rig up a remote shutter release.

How many other toxic and highly volatile chemicals do we let 15 year olds squirt out of a hose with no supervision? Hell, we even have little TVs to distract them while they do it.

6·2 days agoLooking for a new job. Tried out Indeed’s new “Career Scout powered by AI.”
It’s not AI. It can’t even maintain a conversation. It just responds with canned responses.
And you realize that it’s taking a while to delete that small handful of files.
Second only to the Seven Hours War.
Ironically, the three trades you listed are in high demand right now specifically because of the rapid rollout of the data centers needed to power AI.
Conical wheels don’t work if the wheels can move independently. There’s nothing to stop the car from rotating and falling between the tracks.
Wouldn’t you have to lock the diff to make this work?
It’s a sad fact that those systems seem incompatible with human nature as it stands.
Eh, I’d say 20% human nature, 80% propaganda.
End users aren’t the customer.

























Oh, they’re highly configurable. I use a DJI video camera (tiny 4k camera on a stick), but I assume the larger SLR gimbals can do the same. You can hold a button to lock the angle to the stick, lock the angle to the environment, set it to only stabilize vertically (if you’re tracking a laterally moving target), quickly re-center, and even tweak how quickly it responds to movement.
Of course my gimbal has all the camera controls on the handle. Not sure how it’ll work if you’re using an SLR. Especially with manual zoom/focus. But it’s a good start.
