Time in your hands

Time control has always been one of man's main whims. Although the time machine has not yet been invented, there are tools that allow us to control our time and make us feel like the kings of our own world.

Last week saw the light Hyperlapse for Instagram, a free application for iOS that, using the technique of time-lapse, allows you to create moving photographic compositions. The new application uses Apple's built-in gyroscope camera to create cinematic quality videos. In addition, and thanks to its technology, Hyperlapse facilitates the stabilization of the video using the Cinema video algorithm, which allows us to record without worry while we are moving, and to choose the playback speed between 1x and 12x. Thanks to this, we can obtain videos of less than 6 seconds that initially lasted minutes. And, of course, we have the possibility of uploading the result on Facebook or Instagram, where we can also add a color filter to our video.

Simplicity is what makes this app a great tool. So far, making a composition with the technique of time-lapse required special equipment, tripods and editing programs. Today, we only need to have the application on our smartphone and press a button to get a souvenir of the sunset or the birthday of the little one in the house.
