The creator spent four months adding features including a Dynamic Mode that captures frames in ~0.02 seconds with burst support (3/5/10/20 frames), improved battery monitoring with 5% auto-shutdown to protect the SD card, a self-timer, photo metadata tagging, and intentionally overdesigned visuals. All firmware, 3D print files, and an assembly manual are available on GitHub for anyone to build their own. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
