In the last few years, the technology of time-lapse shooting of construction sites has gained great popularity and this is not surprising. Thanks to this technology, it is possible not only to create an impressive presentation film about construction, but also to provide continuous online monitoring of the construction site, creating a complete photo archive of construction, so necessary at every construction site.


When building certain objects, sometimes there is a desire (or sometimes even need!) to film the entire construction process from start to finish. Time-lapse camera a great solution to this problem.


Time-lapse construction photography is photography of a construction site taken from one point at a certain time interval and then combined into a video sequence. The goal of time-lapse is to show in an accelerated video in a matter of minutes what happened at the site over several months or even years.



A Time-Lapse camera is a complex system, the task of which is to carry out continuous shooting of a construction site over a significant period of time and in any weather conditions. It consists of a box in which the camera, power supply system, climate control, control and wireless data transmission are located. The box has an all-weather design and protects the camera from precipitation, wind, dust and a heating system to protect against low temperatures. The camera glass is also equipped with a heating system, which eliminates fogging and icing of the system. The control system allows you to control the camera remotely, adjust the shooting parameters and transfer the image to the "cloud". From the "cloud" the data goes to a picked server for subsequent data processing. Thus, you can not worry about the safety of information, and also at any time see how the shooting is going and, if necessary, adjust the parameters. The camera is also provided with ventilation for use in hot weather.


Timelapse Center is using high-performance equipment capable of producing excellent image quality, as well as a proven technology for monitoring camera performance and post-processing of the footage.





High-quality time-lapse cameras perform their functions in the most difficult weather and climate conditions. They can operate from solar panels, batteries, a 110 or 220 volt network, providing continuous transmission of professional photos via 3G, Wi-Fi or LAN, in conditions of minimally low signal level. In addition, the material has no expiration date - it is always possible to find out what happened on the construction site even a year ago.


The software package for time-lapse shooting, developed by Timelapse Center, allows you to maintain a structured photo archive, compare photos and create intermediate time-lapse videos in automatic mode. In the Personal Account, you can combine any IP cameras. In addition, the functionality allows you to provide continuous online broadcasting of the video stream to the customer's website.
