Clem dreams of making his own Stop motion movie, just like the claymation films he loved as a kid. But creating these kinds of movies is very difficult and tedious. So he builds a machine that makes it much easier, is controlled with his smartphone and even moves on its own to make the stunning Hollywood shots he dreams of!

    sure thats a theroretical concern, but in practice this relay proved to work fine on the super8 project and this one beeing driven by a gpio pin, it operates within the safety margin). On a product indented for production run this should be adressed, thnkas for pointing it out!

     

    One way to do this would be to use the latching mode of the relay to avoid having to power the coil for longer than absolutelly needed to engage it ,but it posed a challenge for my programming I was not willing to conquer because of time constraints.

    it is like the late Niki Lauda said about formula one racing: to finish first, you´ve got to finish first. so imabuild stuff that plain works and make it pretty in the second iteration.
