Abstract
A mount comprises: a bracket assembly for holding an image-capture device; a drive shaft rotatably coupled to a stationary wheel for rotation of the drive shaft relative to the stationary wheel about a drive shaft axis; a support member coupled to the drive shaft to rotate about the drive shaft axis therewith, the support member extending radially away from the drive shaft axis; a rotational wheel rotatably coupled to the support member for rotation of the rotational wheel relative to the support member about a rotational wheel axis radially spaced apart from, and parallel to, the drive shaft axis, and coupleable to the bracket assembly such that rotation of the rotational wheel about the rotational wheel axis causes corresponding rotation of the bracket assembly about the rotational wheel axis; and a belt entrained around the stationary wheel and the rotational wheel.
