[Issue 50] Remotely control your camera or other workshop gadgets with this handheld intervalometer, with Bluetooth Low Energy, and gesture sensor.
This project won’t expand the inbuilt wireless processing of your camera but will provide another point of control for using it conveniently.
There are typically four separate settings available on an intervalometer.
The first setting is Delay and is simply the time in seconds, between activating the intervalometer and taking the first photo.
The second setting is Exposure, or “Long” as it’s sometimes labelled, which is how many seconds your camera’s shutter is open for.
The third setting is Interval and is how long the intervalometer waits between consecutive photos.
The fourth and final setting is Count, or “N” – simply the number of photos you wish to capture.
We build a prototype on a breadboard, and then make our main build with a custom PCB and laser cut case.
