Abstract:
The invention comprises a small, easily transportable, specially programmed, wirelessly controlled camera mounting device. The camera mounting device is equipped with a ¼-20 stud, the standard type of stud used by tripods, so the user can easily mount a Go-Pro camera or any other kind of presently available small camera on the camera mounting device. Embodiments of the device can rotate the camera up to 360 degrees, left or right, at any of multiple speeds, and can pause, and rotate the camera up or down. Embodiments of the device can attach themselves to other surfaces, by several methods, and can be charged wirelessly. The invention also includes a method that eliminates the need to use multiple cameras, while making a video, and splice the video together after the fact. This invention also comprises security systems using the camera mount.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for holding a camera to allow said camera to perform filming, said apparatus further comprising;\n a base and a means for wirelessly commanding said base; said base further comprising a base wireless receiver ( 9 ) and a base memory ( 5 ) and a rotating mechanism and a screw mount and a base battery ( 7 ) and a base motor ( 12 ), where said base motor is a stepper motor, said base further comprising a base program ( 13 ) and a gear drive ( 14 ) and a means of camera attachment; and said base further comprising that said base motor ( 12 ), said gear drive ( 14 ) and said screw mount are parts of said rotating mechanism; said base battery ( 7 ) being operatively connected to, and providing power for, said base wireless receiver ( 9 ) and said base memory ( 5 ) and said base motor ( 12 ); said base wireless receiver ( 9 ) being capable of receiving wireless signals from said means for wirelessly commanding said base; and said base wireless receiver ( 9 ) being operatively connected to said base memory ( 5 ) so as to be able to transmit said signals to said base memory ( 5 ); and said base memory ( 5 ) being specially programmed with said base program ( 13 ) to have the capacity to interpret such signals from said means for wirelessly commanding said base; and to command said base motor ( 12 ) to perform an action based on a signal received by said base memory ( 5 ) from said base wireless receiver ( 9 ); and said base memory being operatively connected to said base motor ( 12 ) so that said base motor ( 12 ) can receive commands from said base memory, and said base motor ( 12 ) can turn said gear drive ( 14 ) in response to commands from said base memory ( 5 ); and said gear drive ( 14 ) being connected to said screw mount so that, when said gear drive ( 14 ) is turned by said base motor ( 12 ), said gear drive will turn said screw mount and cause said screw mount to rotate; and said screw mount being able to rotate; and a means for attachment being attached to said screw mount; said means for attachment being capable of holding a camera affixed to said means for attachment; so that if a camera is affixed to said means for attachment, and said screw mount rotates, said means for attachment, and said camera will be caused to rotate in a predictable manner by said screw mount.
