Description
ABSTRACT
This work is on 360 degrees tracker pod standis designed to effortlessly follow and track moving objects or people within its viewing range. This system finds applications in various areas, from security surveillance and live events to sports broadcasts, video conferencing, self-improvement, and more.This system is an arduino based which is connected to an Ultrasonic Sensor which is attached on a DC Motor. The system is built with a built-in 10000mAh rechargeable lithium battery, this can be charged with both ac and 5v dc charging unit.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Pods have been an essential tool for photographers for decades. In landscape photography, a camera pod ensures that the camera remains stable, preventing blur caused by camera shake or wind. It also allows for longer exposure times, which can be useful for capturing a wider dynamic range or creating intentional blur effects such as motion blur in waterfalls or clouds. In astro photography, a camera pod is even more crucial. Because of the long exposure times required to capture the night sky, any movement of the camera will result in blurry and unusable images(Hameed et al., 2019).
Another advantage of using a pod is that it allows photographers to take their time and carefully compose their shots. With the camera securely mounted, photographers can experiment with different angles, perspectives, and framing, knowing that the camera will remain in place. This is particularly useful in landscape photography, where small adjustments to the camera angle or composition can make a big difference in the final image(Hameed et al., 2019).
Presently due to technological advancement camera pods have been invented in different forms but this work is focused on 360-degree motion tracking pod which is innovative device that have revolutionized various fields such as photography, videography, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), security surveillance, sports, and more. This pod automatically follow and capture the motion of a subject or object, providing smooth and continuous tracking without the need for manual adjustments.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Traditional camera pod only stand a point which is only used to ensures that the camera remains stable, preventing blur caused by camera shake or wind, but the challenge with this type of camera is that the user will always find it difficult to snap a selfie in that when the user move out the camera coverage it doesn’t have the feature of positioning the camera according to the person’s movement. In other to overcome this challenge a 360-degree motion tracking pod was invented. This pod automatically follows and captures the motion of a subject or object, providing smooth and continuous tracking without the need for manual adjustments.
1.3 AIM AND OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
The main aim of this work is to build a 360 degrees tracker pod stand with both ac and 5v dc charging unit with integrated 10000mah inbuilt battery for external usb support. The objectives of the study are:
- To build the system prototype
- To provide seamless and consistent tracking of moving subjects to ensure high-quality footage
- To eliminate shaky and unstable video, resulting in professional-grade recordings.
- To maintain precise focus on the subject, even during rapid movements.
- To ensure that the subject remains clear and in focus, enhancing the visual appeal of the content.
1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study will serve a means of providing an automatic tracking without the need for manual adjustments thereby allowing the user to concentrate on their activities rather than operating the camera, improving productivity.
The study will serve as a means of providing easy-to-use interfaces and quick setup processes thereby reducing the time and effort required to start capturing motion, making the technology accessible to non-professionals.
This work will help photographers in ensuring a reliable performance whether indoors, outdoors, in low light, or bright environments.
1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The scope of this work covers building a 360 degrees tracker pod stand using ultrasonic sensor as the human motion sensor with both ac and 5v dc charging unit with integrated 10000mah inbuilt battery for external usb support.
CHAPTER FIVE
CONCLUSION
At the end of this work the aim of this study was achieved. When the object moves,the sensor along with the phone on the phone holder goes along with it. Direction of the object was also observed with the best efficiency. The object size and distance are important variables in the shape analysis.Overall,the system can provide 100% efficiency unless of the distance is less than one centimeter and the size is extremely small. However,it important to note that the experiment was done in a constant environment.
