Michael at MitchTech has been busy. He’s written a tutorial, including wiring diagrams, on creating a pan-and-tilt face tracking system with a Microsoft LifeCam, a special bracket and a couple of servo motors.

I’ll look more at this in future posts as I’ll likely use a similar set-up for my astronomy project. (with the servos and bracket, but not tracking faces… though I wonder if I can track the moon, for instance…. hmmm….)
