Abstract
There is scientific research in several areas of knowledge that make use of the time-lapse technique. Tidal, rocks, and glaciers movements, which take up to months to occur, can be seen in a few seconds with this technique. Swamps, deserts, and even submerged areas are places of difficult access and need to be observed. There is always a high cost involved in the process of capturing time-lapse images. In this paper, a robotic tool is presented that meets the operational requirements to support these tasks. Among these new features is the ability to use idle time in the process of capturing images for this type of media. Its built-in camera is moved in different directions, being able to capture images for the generation of multiple time-lapse videos, using only one device. Because of this, this robotic tool is a facilitator to the construction of scientific, entertainment, and educational projects that make use of this type of unconventional data.
