Lahundo Prompter

A Raspberry Pi powered teleprompter for video recording

Similar projects worth following
This is a configurable, pedal-controlled, Raspberry Pi-powered teleprompter for recording videos.

I've used this to record several videos and it works perfectly. The text is not visible in the video at all.

I needed a teleprompter.  I heard good things about Elgato and had about $1000 worth of supplies in a shopping cart on their website before I decided to verify that I would be able to use this in Linux.

So I decided to build my own.

    Assemble your crew

    See the components list for links to what I used.

    You'll need:

    • A Raspberry Pi Zero 2W (and SD card)
    • A 7" HDMI display
    • PCSensor-compatible USB foot pedals
    • 5x7" picture frame glass
    • 1/4" heat set inset connectors (at least one, probably several)
    • Cables:
      • USB OTG
      • Female Micro USB to 2x Male Micro USB
      • HDMI to Micro HDMI (optional: use flat right-angle cables for best fit)
      • Micro USB female to male (optional: use flat right-angle cables for best fit)

    If you want to mimic my tripod and camera mount:

    • tripod
    • 1-2 11" camera flash bars with screw mounts
    • Optional phone camera mount

    Print the case

    The STL file is in the GitHub repository.

    I printed this on an Ender 3 with no raft/skirt.  The only support that should be needed is on the open sides of the case and the upper section of the cutout (above the hole for the camera).  The angle on the back of the case is 45 degrees and should be printable without support.
