The best part of haunted houses and amusement park rides is getting to see pictures of your friends screaming in terror. To get these kinds of pictures requires perfect timing. The best way to get this is with an electronic control circuit. So in this project, I am going to show you how to make

This instructible will show you how I built (and you can also build) an Arduino Timelapse Panning controller for GoPro cameras. There are obviously some refinements that can be made to the design, but in general I am very happy with the results that I’ve captured with it. Check out the video below for a

This instructable will show you how to construct a laser tripwire that can twitter and grab an image from a webcam, as well as execute any command you can put in a bash script. This instructable is actually quite simple and is even suitable as a beginner arduino project. It requires a GNU/linux (or possibly Mac) operating

High speed photography is generally carried out in a dark room with dedicated equipment (controlled remote flash for example)… The instructable proposed here enables to make high speed photography outside (and enjoy the sun!), in less than 2 hours with some generic DIY basic tools. The principle is the following : A marble is dropped in a repeatable way. During

2000 pictures compose this piece- that is, 2000 perfect different water drops into which we mapped an animation. Droplets that behave and look strangely similar at the stage of less entropy, and become more disorderly as they splash. The final result of the piece you have seen has absolutely no CGI, and was shot in

I wanted to make a photbooth for a Christmas party. I wanted it to be simple to operate and only be one click easy so that even a guest who was chemically uncoordinated could even operate it.I wanted a solution that would take a photo and post it on facebook. Guests could later tag themselves

Simple digital cameras can produce remarkably good quality photos and are now cheap enough that it doesn’t hurt the wallet too much to buy one with the intention of modifying it for use in a project. You may even already have an old digital camera that you don’t mind sacrificing for a good cause! Modifying

So my sister managed to break a pan and tilt camera mount and naturally thought daddy can fix this. After sitting on my dads workshop bench for a while he had a go at it and couldn’t work out how to fix it so it was passed on to me as broken. So I decided

This post is a guide for people that are interested in my previous posts about dual monitor VGA hacking (see 1, 2 and 3). You will need: • A laptop or a computer with a VGA output • A breadboard (optional) and some wires or a strip board for soldering • Wire and breadboard jumpers

Today I’m going to show you how I made my “light painters palette” aka light box. If your into electronics and photography than this is probably something you are going to like. Supplies: -Arduino (I’m using a arduino pro mini which requires a ftdi basic to program, But an uno or leaonardo… would work just fine) –Tri
