The Animations List
On the left side of the Timeline, you'll find a list of animations in your active Lensmaster project.
Animation Types
Lensmaster supports four different animation types that can be keyframed alone or in groups of animations.
- Robot / Track / Turntable
Animation for the robot's X, Y, Z, Yaw, Pitch, Roll, Track and Turntable axes.
- FIZ
Animation for the Focus, Iris and Zoom axes.
- Dynamic Target
Animation for a dynamic target position (X, Y, Z, Yaw, Pitch and Roll).
- Motor Animation
Animation for motor's position or velocity axes. The supported motor animations are:
Stepper Motor Velocity
Stepper Motor Position
RC Servo Position
Adding Animations to your Project
Most animation types are handled automatically by Lensmaster, including the robot, FIZ, and Dynamic target animations, which are created and updated as needed.
However, for other axes, specifically those from the Camerabotics Action Server, you will need to add them manually.
Manually Adding External Axis
Right-click the animation list
Hover over , and select the type of external axis you want to add. The available types are explained in this article.
