Camera stabilizer

I've been working on new camera stabilizer, having watched Youtube videos of many DIY versions, I have made my own version of a gimbal (to understand the problem and what many think is the best solution and because it's important to walk a mile in another mans shoes) but I have an idea for a different version, so I've been back to the Lego box to create a quick prototype.  May times people have read my blog and thought it to be quite engineering based, but unless you are taking something that already exists and making it look different, this is how all product design begins.  You have to try things and keep experimenting, playing with ideas until something new suggests itself and in this instance, I find the best way to quickly prototype is with Lego. More to follow.

I got this one on Amazon. It doesn't work for heavy cameras, but for cameras about 2 lbs and under it does a nice job.camera stabilizer
