Summary

These camera mounts are designed to be used with the Microsoft LifeCam HD‑3000 Web camera on an FRC robot. (but can be used on anything).This camera normally has a heavy, rubber coated, hinged stand which is quite annoying to deal with when you use it in any way except on top of a desktop monitor.

Update: as of Finals Match 3 on the Einstein Field, this camera mount was featured on "Optimus Climb" (created by The Beach Bots, Team 330), the 2016 World Champion.

Both mounts are designed to be printed on their backs.
They have been printed several times without issue.

Post-Printing

The mounts require the original stand to be removed from the camera. This can be done by unscrewing the two small Phillips head screws in the recession on the back of the camera (they can be hard to see, you may need a light), removing the front plate, removing the screws on the PCB, carefully moving the PCB to the side, and removing the pin that holds the original stand in place. (allowing it to simply fall out)

The mounts are designed to hold the camera in place using a friction fit, but you could more permanently mount it using superglue. (at your own risk)
If you do not have a tight enough fit with the camera on the part you printed, try using some small pieces of electrical tape to increase the thickness of the tab.
