I’m French, I’m very new in the world of robots and I need your help and knowledge
My goal is to have a remote-controlled device able to mount a camcorder on a metal pole to be able to film my soccer games or those of my children.
In fact I need a device capable of mounting a weight of about 2 kg by rolling vertically on a pole and holding it with a magnet.
I have already found such a device: https://palocam.com
Unfortunately this robot can only carry a weight of 0.5 kg (gopro)
This robot exists. I mean, you found one already I didn’t even know that these kind of robots exists. OK, this one that you found (seems like only complete solution out there) doesn’t suit you perfectly but that’s the other topic.
Of course it is possible to build it. Everything is possible But of course, this will take a lot of time and a little bit of money, especially if you want to make a complete product, well packed in nice design that you can sell to others.
But you already found a similar project, which is a good start. You can use the ideas from this project, do some improvements and make it suit you.
For example, this one robot carries 0.5KG, and you need 2KG. What would happen if you use 4 of them at the same time?
