|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing a **Wrist Camera** (alternate "McGartoll-Fung" design) on the SO-101 robot using a **Camera Module** and a 3D-printed **Hex-Nut Recess Camera Adapter**.
|
||||
|
||||
This adapts the [Wrist Camera (MF) UVC Module](../Wrist_Cam_Mount_32x32_UVC_Module/) and [Wrist Camera (MF) UVC Plug‑on Module](../Wrist_Cam_Mount_32x32_UVC_Module/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Comparison to Main Design
|
||||
#### Advantages:
|
||||
- adapted to use the hex-nut recesses on the wrist of the SO-101 follower arm
|
||||
|
||||
#### Disadvantages:
|
||||
- still requires adaption to the new camera
|
||||
- requires two screws and two nuts which are not included with the servos
|
||||
- not backwards-compatible to the SO-100
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Components
|
||||
### Hardware:
|
||||
- **USB Camera Module** (1) - this is the [recommended model](https://www.amazon.com/innomaker-Computer-Raspberry-Support-Windows/dp/B0CNCSFQC1/ref=pd_lpo_d_sccl_3/132-7372155-9780230?pd_rd_w=eYz4L&content-id=amzn1.sym.4c8c52db-06f8-4e42-8e56-912796f2ea6c&pf_rd_p=4c8c52db-06f8-4e42-8e56-912796f2ea6c&pf_rd_r=XC3EXZRSSXKDB1G0Z5D7&pd_rd_wg=1wTpn&pd_rd_r=932b1976-9ac7-4cef-9774-f0f9c3acb804&pd_rd_i=B0CNCSFQC1&psc=1), but any 32mm x 32mm USB camera module with min 720p / 30 fps spec will likely work
|
||||
- [3D-printed Hex-Nut Recess Camera Adapter](stl/SO-ARM101_camera_wrist_mount.stl) (1)
|
||||
- I recommend printing it as oriented in the STL using tree supports. 40% infill is recommended to increase sturdiness and avoid wobbling
|
||||
- **M2 Screws** (4) - these are the smaller screws that came with your Feetech servos.
|
||||
- **M3 x 8mm Screws** (2)
|
||||
- **M3 Hex Nuts** (2)
|
||||

|

|
||||
## Assembly Instructions
|
||||
### Step 1: Attach the Adapter to the Gripper
|
||||
|
||||
1. 3D print the **Hex-Nut Recess Camera Adapter**.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Remove Motor 6, you can leave the [Moving Jaw](../../STL/SO101/Individual/Moving_Jaw_SO101.stl) attached.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Insert the hex nuts into the recesses in the [Wrist Roll Element](../../STL/SO101/Individual/Wrist_Roll_Follower_SO101.stl).

|
||||
|
||||
4. Reattach Motor 6, secure it with its original M2 screws again.
|
||||
|
||||
5. Secure the adapter with the two M3 screws.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Install the Camera
|
||||
1. Take out the **Camera Module**.
|
||||
2. Align the 4 holes of the **Camera Module** with the **Camera Adapter**, and attach using 4 **M2 Screws**.

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 3: Configure Software and Adjust Focus
|
||||
1. In your software, set your resolution and FPS.
|
||||
- **Note**: You will likely want to set your resolution to *640 x 480* and FPS to *30* even if the camera module's max resolution/frame rate is higher, as most models work with lower resolutions and any higher will just be data bloat.
|
||||
2. Turn on your arm. Look at the video feed from your newly installed camera (On Mac, you can also use *QuickTime*->*New Movie Recording* to see this feed).
|
||||
- **Note**: The focus on the camera is manual and will look very blurry initially. Adjust the focus by twisting the lens counterclockwise or clockwise until the video feed is clear.
