A Raspberry Pi based camera with swappable body parts and camera modules #PiDay @Raspberry_Pi
Modular Pi Cam is a Raspberry Pi based camera that can swap body parts and camera modules developed by Jacob David C Cunningham.
This started out as just me wanting to try round displays and the 5D directional pad… but as I worked on the project I realized the body could be modular eg. swap the camera module/front plate or back plate.
The software used by the Modular Pi Cam 2 (mpi cam 2) is mostly the same as the Pi Zero HQ cam with some upgrades like different display and detecting camera.
See GitHub for details + files and there is more documentation on hackaday.io. Check out the video below.
