 ====== Streaming Box / Photobox v3 ======
+As a teacher, I was recently (due to the Coronavirus restrictions) forced to teach only half the students in class, the other half would be at home. I decided to live-stream my classes and looked for an easy solution.
+In the end, I used my Photobox knowledge to build something similar for live streaming, but with a few different components/requirements:
+  * Good video quality
+  * Capable of connecting to MS Teams
+  * Wired and Wireless connection
+  * Wireless microphone receiver
+  * Easy to correct around, quick to set up
+I built a box containing (once again) a Canon DSLR, but this time I also included a wireless microphone receiver and put a docking station for a notebook on top. Once I don't need it anymore, it will be re-purposed as a photobox.
+Because I built it in rather limited time (a weekend), there was no time to order mounting brackets and other hardware components. Therefore, I used my 3D printer to produce the mounting parts. All parts are printed from PETG which works quite well!
