A3S/A5S OctoPi on a PiZEROW

Cedric

Hey !

I know there are countless tutos about how to make an OctoPi on the web, but here's my take 

I wanted something that did not require modifiyng or opening the printer ( there is another excellent tutorial about adding a Raspi 3 inside the A5S )

My tutorial is using a unconventionnal PiZeroW + Cam + official case, and a custom 3D printed holder that fits on two screws on the A3/A5s





The webcam is a Raspberry "official" V2 cam that fits inside the small case as well.

You could also use an infrared Raspi CAM ; actually I have both. The advantage of using an IR cam is that you can see your print easily during the night (doesn't even require IR lightning in most cases)


The tutorial (still in progress) is here

And I'd be glad to answer all questions.

I'll put the 3D printed support on Thingiverse, it's just a remix of an existing one to which I added two holes and shortened a few parts.

Hi,

could you please post the link, where I can find the support on thingiverse?

Thanks
