Face detection and tracking with Arduino and OpenCV

Step 2: Attach servos and camera

I did not want to affix any of the project parts permanently because I like to take my projects apart after I am done.  So I used hobby wire, which is nothing more than a stiff wire, to tie the servos and the webcam together.

I wrapped the base of the webcam to the pan servo horn. Then I wrapped a cable around the horn of the tilt servo and the body of the pan servo.

To keep the whole servo/webcam assembly from moving randomly during operation, I used a clamp to tie it down to the soldering helping hands. It kept is steady during servo rotation.

It ain't pretty but it works.
