eMotimo PT (Pan and Tilt) is here

My name is Brian Burling and I am starting a new company called - eMotimo

The first product, eMotimo PT, a two axis motion control device that sits between your tripod and your DSLR or Video Camera. Right now, it does point A to Point B time lapse shots with a simple 3 minute setup. It will trigger DSLR shutters or move video cameras in smooth profiles.

eMotimo PT's design criteria were to be:

    User Friendly - You use a Nunchuck and LCD screen for prompt driven setup. No computer is required.
    Portable and Lightweight - Without a battery, the unit weighs in at around 5 lbs.

Timelapse Calculator v0.1 Released

Introduction
Timelapse Calculator was designed to help one decide the appropriate interval settings for timelapse applications. The unique thing about Timelapse Calculator compared to others you might find online is it's user specified dynamic interface.
This allows one to input the data that they already know, for example, the actual time you wish to allocate to shoot the timelapse sequence. Then the Timelapse Calculator does the rest of the thinking (or suggesting) for you. This allows for quick intuitive calculations so you can get the shots you want before the scenery changes and the moment passes.

iPhone Version (New)
Thanks Simon Loffer for his slick, and much more portable take on the Original Timelapse Calculator. Follow this link to download the iPhone app.

OpenMoco TimeLapse Engine 0.82 Released

After several months of experimentation and hard work, we are proud to announce the release of version 0.82 of the OpenMoco TimeLapse Engine. Of course, the engine still runs on the inexpensive and easy-to-buy Arduino platform, but we've expanded all of the existing capabilities and added new features to the engine that set it apart from any other open-source moco sketch you'll find, while making it more stable and useful for the timelapse experimenter.

Getting Up and Running with OpenMoco Slim

While the Timelapse Engine provides all the functionality needed to perform the motion control for your time-lapse video, you'll still need a way to interface with the engine. The engine can communicate with any computer that has a USB port, so we'll just need some software to tell it what to do. OpenMoco Slim is the first, and most basic interface to the time-lapse engine. It's a simple application that provides a low-profile way to interact with the engine and script complex sequences of motion in Windows, Linux, and OSX.

We'll cover how to get Slim up and running, and walk through the basics of using it.

The OpenMoco Reference Design

Here on the OpenMoco.org website, you'll find a number of open-source, free, and user-contributed software and hardware designs.  The core focus of the OpenMoco system is the Official OpenMoco Reference Design.  This design includes the system architecture, the system software components, and the system hardware components.
