DEVLOG 002
Complete CAD and assemblyI completed the CAD models, printed out the second version of the front mount, and assembled the whole camera by disassembling the outer frame, screwing the PCB into the main front case, and then finally using superglue to secure the back cover. I then tested out the camera in SharpCap, where it worked perfectly, but with a few mistakes that could be improved.

I must have accidentally smudged the sensor a little bit, as I can see a pretty large portion of the screen being slightly hazy or with small impurities all over it, so I will have to remove those by taking calibration frames, as it is not possible to clean a sensor easily without damaging it. Another mistake is that I forgot to take off the small green LED light, which might have some small effects on the performance, as it can be slightly seen in full darkness, so I will again have to resort to using calibration frames to eradicate any imaging quality issues.

There will likely be one more DEVLOG, in which I will create the official repository, BOM, and prepare everything for publication, and publish everything. Then I will test the whole setup as well in my final devlog.
