Various attempts at the casing
Problems faced:
1) too tight to be able to slide in/ hold the module parts up; did not give enough tolerance / allowance
2) different machine have slightly different settings/ tolerance; exact same  STL file could fit perfectly when printed on dreamer and too tight when printed using dremel.
3) the  cylinder extruded part used to hold up the rpi camera module are fragile and might break easily.
4) Always check that there is sufficient filament to complete the printing or the printer could be printing out air.
5) Try design the parts such that they require the least amount of support, otherwise remember to set the support and fill setting properly.

Placement of device

Bright test settings where the device is place under a street lamp
Vehicles would slow down due to the hump. This help ensure that the rpi can take a clear video since prior testing show that it is not capable of high speed recording.
