I build a compact DIY Teleprompter that uses an iPhone, Android, smartphone to display text. Has a built-in camera mount. I provide you with a parts list and a PDF of the plans I used, plus I show you how make regular glass more reflective. There are also links to the 3D printed parts I designed for the teleprompter.
