Another article related to OctoPrint.
OctoPrint supports to have a camera to monitor the print area, so that remotely is possible to see how a print is going on and eventually stop it if something wrong is going on.
I had around a nice Logitech Webcam C270 and it works perfectly with OctoPrint on Raspberry Pi.
So it was only matter to find a way to attach it permanently to the printer.
Here the camera :

It did come out not too bad, just a couple of pieces were not perfect but still usable.
Here's some pictures.
It is working, however the position is not ideal to see what is going on.
The camera needs to be placed more higher than that and possibly in a center position, behind or in front.
So probably a different approach is needed.
