The AutoDerp was designed to use one of the "camlink TP1" tripods acquired earlier in 2012. When in use, tripod's top-plate is to be removed and attached to the AutoDerp's camera mount point. The AutoDerp is then bolted to the plate-less tripod.

=== Current Status ===
Construction of AutoDerp stalled during 2013, with the mostly built frame sat on a table in the tech room. It was eventually completed in May 2014. Due to an abundance of tripods, and the fact that [[Sony HVR-HD1000E|one of YSTV's HD cameras]] is only capable of use in live shows, it is now permanently assembled atop a Camlink tripod with camera.
As of October 2013, the AutoDerp has yet to be completed. A mount for the top-plate is required, and various sockets require cables attaching: two BNCs for the camera and monitor (one may be replaced with a VGA connector), a 4-pin XLR for camera power, a pair of 3-pin XLRs and two 3.5mm TRS jack sockets for [[Wedge (Comms)|comms]], and a few more 3-pin XLRs for purposes known only to [[hist:Michael Chislett|Chis]]. A coat of black paint wouldn't go amiss either.
