So far I am impressed with how LRTL has been working. What I was thinking about was the issue with how I set up my camera with the qDSLR Dashboard wireless router control. The connectivity is not reliable so far.
Ok, so how does it sound if you made an Ardiuno based remote control that we could plug our camera into for full control. And using the computer based LRTL software to program what we wanted to do, then export those camera commands to the remote device. The remote device would also have an input from any motion control gear so that when the motion control device sends the trigger command, the LRTL device would just use that as its own internal trigger. The LRTL device would handle the ISO, Exposure time etc of the camera.
Is this possible with something along the lines of an Arduino based device. The reason being is that hooking a computer up and keeping it running is a power issue. Wireless control is not reliable. But a purpose built box that controlled the cameras basic functions based on the exported process from LRTL might make for a confident way to perform Holy Grail commands or even just basic stuff. The motion control devices seem to be more focused on moving your camera, than the important settings required for perfectly exposed frames.
Anyway, it was just a thought and I figured why not post it and see what people thought.
