build instructions and manual for the FLO BYO-camera insect tracking/filming setup
Beetrax is an open-source printed circuit board by strawlab, from the strawlab/flo-hardware repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board of 50.8 × 36.8 mm with 26 parts on 28 nets, routed with 11 tracks and 0 vias.
It is built around the OPR5911. Its parts include 22 resistors, 2 ICs, 1 diode and 1 connector.
ℹ️ The main FLO repository is at https://github.com/strawlab/flo ℹ️.
This repository hosts build instructions and manual for the FLO Bring Your Own (BYO) camera insect tracking/filming. Included are hardware design files and other large, binary files.
FLO is a method for videography using a camera system that automatically moves to follow the subject.
FLO is described in the following publication:
Vo-Doan TT, Titov VV, Harrap MJM, Lochner S, Straw AD. High Resolution Outdoor Videography of Insects Using Fast Lock-On Tracking. bioRxiv (2023) doi:10.1101/2023.12.20.572558.

It measures 50.8 × 36.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
26 parts, built around the OPR5911. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
From the strawlab/flo-hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is beetrax-pcb/beetrax.kicad_pcb and its schematic beam-driver/dual-cam-pcb v2/dual-cam-pcb.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask strawlab before reusing the design.
