I'd love to see something like this made out of entirely recycled phones and their cameras instead of going with discrete components... any leads?

- mattowen_uk 5y agoI've just built a basic basic overhead 'rostrum' type rig using some wood, screws, and an older Android phone. The phone's camera points down at a height of about 20cm/8" and can see an area on the base plate big enough for the object I'm capturing (in this case, 3.5" floppy disks). I use an app called IP Camera (it's on the Play store for free) to serve the image via http. I then remotely grab it, process/crop it and store it. The project is in it's early stages, but is working quite well so far.
