CineShooter Remote gives users incredible control of their Kessler CineShooter motion control system. We've refined the user interface to simple and easy-to-use dashboards. Programming a move has never been easier. Move the motors into position and record a keyframe. CineShooter Remote now allows for up to 12 keyframes. Once ready, select a playback option such as live, time lapse, or stop motion. You can also manually move individual motors via a virtual joystick or slider. Emulation mode, new to version 2, allows you to move motors by changing the orientation of your device. Taking cues from kOS, Mini Event Mode allows you to go to specific programmed positions with a tap of a button - even change the transition time to speed up or slow down on the fly. We've also added full support of PlayStation and Xbox controllers. The remote app is a no-brainer for anyone who has a CineShooter.
