3D model description

Do you want to avoid answering callers at your front door?
Do you want to interact with them remotely?
Do you want extra security?
KickStarter projects too expensive? Too much Hipster BS?
Want something free? (CC-Attribution)

Well you can 3D print a housing to mount the Xiaomi IP camera with Night Vision (Xiaomi Ants) at your front door!

The camera itself cost roughly Β£20 (US$30?), and you do need some hacking with the hardware, mainly just soldering skills, extra parts required...

Undaunted? Read on!

Bill of Material:

1) Xiaomi NightVsion Wireless IP camera

2) Micro USB breakout board, a specific one, dimension is important!

3) 4 x 8mm, Countersunk Screw, M3

4) 1 x 30mm, Socket Cap Screw, M3

5) 1x 25mm, Hexagon Stand-off Spacer, M3

6) Almost forgot, 1 x 3mm, M3 screw, preferable flat top to screw Hexagon spacer in place

Item 4 and 5 will depend on your door thickness... e.g. Steel Reinforced Meth Lab

Void Warranty Section
You have to enlarge the original Mic opening on the camera to allow wiring

Don't be a dummy, flip and print largest flat surface down on print bed!!!
