Time lapse photography
|
To provide an extended test of the CM4 IoT hub platform shown above right and documented here, a time lapse photography project has been set up as shown above left.
The CM4 has been programmed with a cron to run every 20 minutes taking both 480x640 and 1080x1920 images and overlaying each with text showing the time and date using the convert function of imagemagick.
These images are stored locally on the CM4 and in addition both images plus some additional text data are then uploaded to the tracker storage capability of a Tiki system using the custom 'C' code functions discussed here.
An example captured image is shown on the right and the aim is to use the series of images to create a time lapse video of the bulbs coming into full flower.
