Universal Wheelchair Camera Mount

Written By Enabling Engineering

Building a universal wheelchair camera mount for filmmakers who sit on wheelchairs.

The Need

The client who is a filmmaker, she sits on a wheelchair and always requires some sort of assistance when filming. They asked to build them a universal camera mount that would attach to her wheelchair easily and allow the client to fully develop her own film without asking for help fro external sources

The Solution

Designed a high adjustable camera mount with a clamping mechanism to be attached and removed from the wheelchair footrest as needed. The mount telescope pole is approximately 2.5’ - 3.5’ to allow the camera to sit eye-level. The pole clamps onto the footrest of the wheelchair and is easy to remove. Using a pivot joint at the top of the pole, a camera tripod can be attached so the camera can be adjusted in front of the wheelchair user.
