Flowshutter is a custom camera remote. When used in conjunction with readily available hardware, this results in a flexible and reliable external camera motion logger for Gyroflow. It can provide precise synchronization of camera video recording and motion logger (betaflight/emuflight FC) recording.
Flowshutter aims to make all cameras ready for stabilization with Gyroflow software to provide you with one of the best open-source video stabilization experiences.
Flowshutter has the following features:
with many more features on the way!
Currently we are wroking with NeutronRC for a small range of sales in China. Subsequent versions are in production, please stay tuned.
At the same time you can try to DIY your own flowshutter hardware. We have two open sourced designs:
For more information about support camera list, please check the list on the documentation website.
*Note: We need an extra Arduino board to send the Sony LANC protocol, triggering mechnism is based on momentary ground, but needs to add opto-coupling module between arduino and flowshutter to prevent overvoltage.
FC is short for flight controller, more specifically with betaflight/emuflight running on.
The micropython firmware we used is v1.19.1, You can find a copy in the /tools
directory. Also, a uPyCraft
windows version is also provided in the /tools
directory. You can try to use that to flash your ESP32 without the help of ESP-idf.
Pre-requisite:
node
Visual Studio Code
Pymakr
extension in Visual Studio Code
address
in pymakr.conf
to your flowshutter's COM porthttps://github.com/gyroflow/flowshutter
TBD
pymakr.conf
to match up with your flowshutter's COM portpython build.py debug
to prepare the debug environment (move modules to /obj
directory)Note:
python build.py debug
: copy modules to /obj
directorypython build.py debug clean
: clean the /obj
directory. Useful when you are suffering from memory leak.There's a CI that can help us to this. For compiling it locally, please check build.py
for more information.
