Almost trivial, if you're prepared to make the mirrors a bit bigger. I've got a 7-element array on my workbench right now. You want two servos per mirror, one for each axis. I'm using flexures for linkages between the servos and the mirrors, and universal joints made of magnets and ball bearings to hold everything together. The mirror tiles I'm using are 110mm across, flat-to-flat, which are bigger than this example, and that makes layout and assembly straightforward in a way that it wouldn't be if everything was smaller. Everything's printed in PETG, raspberry pi pico for brains driving a pca9685 PWM driver over i2c. The linkage geometry is the only hard part, the CAD and printing was pretty much a one-weekend project. |
