Image Sensor (CMOS) Ring

The image sensor is an essential part of all digital cameras and it always shines like a rainbow.

These sensors work like a film and convert the image into digital data. You can find different size of sensor in different cameras (Webcams, Photo cameras, security cameras, fpv cameras etc.) I used old webcam circuit.

First of all I desoldered large parts and cables from circuit.

I cut off the legs of sensor because I don't have a hot air gun :(

I got the measure and prepared 3d design.

I printed the ring as two part for better quality and fit.

I placed the sensor and started to rough shaping.

I cut the strip from thin carbon fiber sheet and and wrapped it around the ring.

Complete shaping with files and sandpaper.
