Time-lapse turfing
Friday, August 8th, 2008In a change from my normal subjects of repositories and related systems, now for something completely different… My first YouTube video! I spent this afternoon turfing the back garden, and decided to take a time-lapse video of the process. 3 hours of turf laying compressed into less than a minute and a half of video.
The technical details:
- Camera: Cheapo Sony DV video camera, connected via firewire to…
- Computer: MacBook Pro, running…
- Gawker open source time-lapse software
The software takes a screen shot from the camera every x seconds, and creates a pretty neat video file.
