3D Printed Hoverboard GoPro Mount
Get incredible shots with your hoverboard
by Ruiz Brothers
Self balancing scooters (hoverboards) can make an imagine stabilizer camera rig that can be used to capture smooth, low angle shoots. Mounting a small camera to the body of the scooter can be challenging because the center part of the board twists while in operation. With a 3D printed adapter, we can add clamp a camera mount to the middle of the board without obstructing riding or interfering with the position of the camera mount.

Genesis Poi: DotStar LED Persistence-of-Vision
High tech, all-season, water- and playa-resistant poi that you can build and customize yourself!
by Phillip Burgess
Persistence of vision (POV) is the illusion of a solid image where there is none — a task for which LEDs and microcontrollers are a natural fit. Poi is a performance art of spinning tethered weights. Some of the most dramatic performances use fire poi! We sought to create something with that level of “wow,” but safer and usable indoors or out. And so these “Genesis” POV-poi were born.
