Ideal for a mini CCTV system, this set of horizontal and vertical motion servos will give you Pi camera movement with minimum fuss.

Pan-Tilt HAT lets you mount and control a pan-tilt module right on top of your Raspberry Pi. The HAT and its onboard microcontroller let you independently drive the two servos (pan and tilt), as well as driving up to 24 regular LEDs (with PWM control) or NeoPixel RGB (or RGBW) LEDs. There's also a handy slot through which you can route the servo, LED, and camera cables. The module pans and tilts through 180 degrees on each axis.

Use Pan-Tilt HAT with a Pi camera for face-tracking. Or mount it on top of your roving robot as a set of eyes. There's absolutely no soldering required (unless you decide to use the optional NeoPixel strip or ring), as the servos on the pan-tilt module have female jumper wires attached and we've soldered a strip of right-angled header pins to the underside of the HAT to connect them up.

They've also included a handy little acrylic camera mount to hold your camera snugly in the head of the pan-tilt module.

Please Note: 

  • This does not include a Pan-Tilt module
  • The servos draw a lot of current and thus we recommend a good quality 2.5A power supply.
  • Connect the brown wires of the servo cables to the GND pins on the servo channels.
  • Servo channel 1 controls pan and servo channel 2 controls tilt, although you can easily swap these in software.
  • You may require a set of standoffs to use Pan-Tilt HAT with the Raspberry Pi 3B+.
  • The software does not support Raspbian Wheezy.
  • Pan-tilt module (180 degrees motion through each axis) with two servos
  • HAT with two servo channels, one PWM or NeoPixel RGB (or RGBW) LED channel
  • Right-angled header pre-soldered to the underside of HAT for servo and LED channels
  • Slot to route servo, LED, and camera cables through
  • Acrylic mount to hold Pi camera and NeoPixel strip (with diffuser) in place
  • Pan-Tilt HAT pinout
  • Compatible with Raspberry Pi 3B+, 3, 2, B+, A+, Zero, and Zero W
  • Python library available
  • Comes fully assembled

They've put together a super-simple Python library to make it super-easy to control Pan-Tilt HAT. Just tell Pan-Tilt HAT to which angle you'd like it to pan or tilt (from -90 to +90 degrees) and away it goes! There are even a couple of examples showing you how to pan and tilt, and control connected NeoPixels.
