Abstract

In photography and videography, it is a challenge to align a sight toward the target continuously and steadily, as considerable practice and experience are required. Blurry photographs are often captured by camera users who lack the necessary skills. To address the problem, stabilizers have been developed. However, conventional stabilizers involve a steep learning curve because they are designed to be mass produced, and thus not tailored according to an individual. We herein present the design method of a three-dimensional printable personalized stabilizer. It is optimized ergonomically through topology optimization, which is a typical method to optimize the shape of materials.
