I’m uncertain of how accurate gps may be but I am wondering if a calibration routine could be engineered to fine tune the signals allowing it to automatically aim the camera to something like the controlling cell phone. This motorized pan head fastens between any tripod head and video camera. (These items depend on line of sight and have issues in direct sunlight because of their use of IR.) Thinking about it, though, the use of phones and the capacity of a device to control the pan-tilt device it occurred to me that the use of the phone’s GPS may create a way to do the follow me capability of the soloshot device possibly with greater capability. I am pleased that you’re working in this area and also disappointed that there is not greater progress (this is not a criticism of your work but a lament that there has not been more work in this area.)

I find the movement to be very smooth (not jittery like in the sample video-I think that's just because it's on the web) and also very quiet. What a great addition that would be…dial in settings X=. Although the Bescor MP 101 comes with a (wired) remote control that has a slider that seems to indicate that it has variable speed control, it really only has 2 speeds: slow & fast. My ears perked up when you mentioned a timelapse option. Your ‘virtual’ joystick is intriguing (as was your other explorations with the hardwired joystick).

The joystick that they use is a fairly rudimentary CTS Series 252 switch…a ‘mini’ joystick…that does not come close to the smooth control offered by the joystick on a Nintendo Nunchuk…but it does work as designed and gives good measure of control.
but at 85 british pounds it is not cheap.

Smooth control of the Bescor pan/tilt head, from a standstill to full speed. They appear to have designed a fairly simple circuit that does a decent job of extending the control of the bescor beyond the standard remote.
