Moving forward we will now want to move the camera (pan/tilt) in response to the movement of the object of interest. I do this using the Sunfounder pan/tilt hat. You can order the hat I am using at this affiliate amazon link:

If you are able, I suggest you consider getting some spare servos for the pan tilt hat. During development if you are not careful, it is possible to damage a servo by crashing the camera into something. I like to keep a couple spares on hand:

Announcing the Most Awesome Raspberry Pi Lessons of All Times! This time we RUMBLE!

In this class series, we will be using the most excellent Sunfounder Ultimate Raspberry Pi kit, available here: (Affiliate Link)

In today's video we will be discussing the direction we are taking moving forward in this class. Up to this point, we have developed the skills necessary to track an object of interest in OpenCv on the Raspberry Pi based on color. The next major step forward for us will be to be able to adjust the camera position to keep the object of interest in the center of the frame. That is to say, as the object of interest moves, the camera position is adjusted. We will do this with a pan tilt hat for the raspberry Pi. 

If you want to grab those cool little straight jumper wires I am using to keep my breadboard builds neat and clean you can snag a box of them here:

If you guys are interested in the oscilloscope I am using, you can pick one up here (affiliate link):

You guys get your hardware ordered so you can follow along at home!

You will also need a Raspberry Pi. I suggest the Raspberry Pi 4. If you do not already have one, this is the most suitable gear I could find:

The Raspberry Pi's are sort of pricy right now, so you can look on ebay or elsewhere to see if there are any deals. You will need a SD card. If you do not already have one, this is a good one:

I like using a wireless keyboard and mouse to have fewer wires. You can certainly use your USB keyboard and mouse, but if you want a nice wireless one, this one works on the pi. We demonstrate this by using a button switch to control a LED.
