Hot off of the crowd-funding heels of the Astro comes the Radian, a time-lapse and motion control device for photographers looking to spruce up their work without emptying their wallets. The attachment works with digital SLRs and any camera with a trigger-release input, and can even be used with smartphones. The Radian is programmed by a special app developed for iOS and Android, which allows photographers to set precise time and motion intervals, as well as bulb-ramping for seemless lighting transitions for Canon cameras. Photographer Kris Cheng and company plan to implement a rechargeable lithium ion battery and external USB power pack connectivity, which should help out in the case of long photo shoots.
Radian adds another affordable panning time-lapse camera attachment to Kickstarter
Radian, a time-lapse and motion control camera attachment, is looking for funding on Kickstarter and wants to give a unit to anyone who donates $150 to the cause.

Unlike the Astro, the Radian does not include any physical controls, making the unit unusable by anyone without an iOS, Android, or web-enabled device. While it support horizontal pans, users can also enable vertical rotations using an optional $40 L-bracket. The team behind Radian hopes to reach their goal of $178,750 by August 19th. Anyone who donates at least $150 will get the device, a USB cable charger, and a camera cable shipped to them in December.
