www.teehanlax.com/labs/hyperlapse/Hyper-lapse photography – a technique combining time-lapse and sweeping camera movements typically focused on a point-of-interest – has been a growing trend on video sites. It’s not hard to find stunning examples on Vimeo. Creating them requires precision and many hours stitching together photos taken from carefully mapped locations. We aimed at making the process simpler by using Google Street View as an aid, but quickly discovered that it could be used as the source material. It worked so well, we decided to design a very usable UI around our engine and release Google Street View Hyperlapse.

But, this is with a fixed camera on a tripod, so no sweeping camera motions for me. (*) I can programme my camera (Nikon P100) to take a photo every one, five or 15 minutes  GvS |
