Creality Nebula Camera – Print Time-lapse & Monitoring

As superhuman as Makers are with our fantastical creations, we can’t keep eyes on everything at once. Even if you’ve printed the exact same object hundreds of times, there are some occasions in which the print simply fails. Either because of bed adhesion, unexpected problems or something left on the print bed on accident, print fails are never fun to deal with. Fortunately, Maker technology has given us an amazing way to catch these occurrences and stop the print before too much damage is done. The Creality Nebula Camera gives you 24/7 real-time monitoring and can create awesome print timelapses too.

A camera is always a great addition to any 3D printer. The Creality Nebula Camera is designed to be as easy as possible to plug in and play, just like a simple web cam. The USB connector plugs directly into the display case on the Creality Ender 3 V3 KE, CR-10 SE, or Halot Mage Pro 3D printers. If you wish your printer was one of those three, the Nebula Camera is also compatible with the Creality Sonic Pad, which opens its compatibility to almost all Creality printers. This camera integrates easily with your Windows PC and OBS systems, making it even useable as an actual web cam in a pinch.

Standout Features of the Creality Nebula Camera

• Night Vision – Monitor for 24 hours a day with a clear picture. The night vision on the Nebula Camera is a built-in 940nm infrared fill light.
• Time-lapse Capturing – Interfacing with your 3D printer, this camera lets you capture the whole print process, from beginning to end. Time-lapse photography is one of the most satisfying little benefit of having a camera by your printer.
• AI detection – The smart sensor within the Nebula constantly monitors for visible print problems, alerting you as soon as anything goes wrong.
• Manual Focus & Tilt– The lens is adjustable with a quick rotation, pulling everything into focus for your winning high-definition shot. The camera itself also easily twists and tilts up and down for you to get the best angle.

Upgrade your 3D printer and capture your prints in fun time-lapses and 24/7 monitoring with decant 1920x1080 resolution. The Creality Nebula Camera is ready to benefit your printing experience with a live video feed, accessible through Creality Cloud or the Creality Print App.

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
