Time lapse is cool, but an arduino powered motion control time lapse would be better. I’ve been playing with a fellow Maker’s new product and it is a fun little pan / tilt motion control time lapse camera rig that is actually configured using a wii controller. It’s called the emotimo PT and it is the quickest and easiest way to start shooting time lapse shots with motion control http://www.emotimo.com
