Bike Cam MK3
This is my third attempt at making a camera mounting system for my bicycle, constructed using parts from a satellite dish and some extra hardware.
I had a few goals in mind that I felt other designs didn't address well:
* Camera needs to be mounted to the frame for stability, handle bar mounts are too shaky
* The camera should be mounted where it has a clear view
* The closer the camera is to the ground, the more exciting the footage will be
* Should be sturdy enough to support large cameras
Here is a video of the mount in action:
1:00 - Going fast
3:30 - Avoiding pedestrians
4:00 - Riding down stairs (!)
7:00 - A little too close
