What is Reddit's opinion of Microsoft Hyperlapse?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

There's a PC version as well, http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hyperlapseapps/

You could try smoothing out the footage with Hyperlapse.

I just got a GoPro and am waiting for a part in the mail, but I hope to get some bike time lapses of Sydney soon. I've wanted to try all this since I learned Hyperlapse exists - I don't know if it works - but it looks super neat.

Nope (not sure if there's one planned either). I believe so far it's out for Windows as sort of a beta version, Android, and Windows Phone.

What's Hyperlapse?

> Microsoft Hyperlapse is a new technology that creates smooth and stabilized time lapses from first-person videos.

I took some footage from a recent group ride in Eastern WA and ran it through the Hyperlapse app. This is run at 4x speed and reduced 20 minutes of footage into a >5 minute clip. The only downfall is I couldn't get the Hyperlapse footage to export at 1080p due to the Android N beta I'm running.

Pretty neat stuff though. Great way to condense hours of ride footage into a quick clip!

This is what should be integrated with it, IMO.

I wouldn't think it would be too hard, and Microsoft has released an app for it on a few different platforms.

You can use <strong>Microsoft Hyperlapse</strong> to create fast motion videos after the fact.

Don't think there's really a way to do slow motion that won't look crappy after the fact. I suppose you can record at 60 fps and play back at 30 fps but that's only a half speed reduction.

That's un-watchable. Run it through the Hyperlapse software: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hyperlapseapps/

There'll be a watermark but it might result in something interesting.

A gimbal is a mount that keeps the camera stable so the video isn't so jerky.

Yes, Hyperlapse is a program, and I think it's still free for now. I've seen a few videos people have edited with it and it makes for a really smooth result. It's also a good way to compress a longer run to the point where people might watch it. I totally don't work for Microsoft btw, I actually just think this is a pretty cool thing they've come up with.

Yo! Awesome video! However you should see how well it works with hyperlapse video!

If it's a moving motion time lapse and you want to smooth out the frames so it's not jerky, I think Microsoft Hyperlapse might do the trick. I haven't used the pro version preview but you can check it out for free.

A chest strap is the most stable mount for the camera and has minimal impact on your running.

For post, check out Microsoft Hyperlapse for easy image stabilization.

lookin good, consider doing a hyperlapse of your video, it's fascinating to see your entire commute condensed to a couple minutes.

here's mine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F049j7YKojA

made with this: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hyperlapseapps/

That was absolutely epic. At the risk of sounding like a teenager, this is like the best moments of Battlefield and Cod Combined.

Btw, Microsoft just release their Video Stabilization software called Hyperlapse. I am going to rip the video and give it a try.

You made a timelapse if I am not mistaken (you shot images in a certain interval). For a hyperlapse you shoot the whole thing as video and then use Microsoft Hyperlapse (here you can either buy it or download the free trial) to create a Hyperlapse ;)

you have to make a new scrambled egg though.

I haven't made a cycling video using it yet, but Microsoft made a phone/pc app called Hyperlapse that takes video and makes a more fluid timelapse. You should try it with your original. I did it with a portion of a road trip and it turned out really neat.

To all those who are wondering, while I'm not OP, the moving timelapse shots were likely made with Microsoft Hyperlapse Which is completely different in it's technology to Instagram Hyperlapse. While Instagrams offering is great and works well for many applications, the Microsoft Hyperlapse is much more advance and uses an entirely different approach to the timelapse effect.

Here is an explanation of the differences from Microsoft. Though it's fairly technical.

Try throwing this into Hyperlapse:

Microsoft has already released a beta version that you can download for your android or windows phone/tablet. EDIT: I've tried it myself, and it works great!

The live map was a nice touch!

I'm guessing you sped this up afterwards? Have a look at software like this, it can be surprisingly different (example), though that one adds a watermark because it's in preview or something.

FYI check out This free Microsoft Hyperlapse software...

The desktop version is pretty neat, but I haven't tried the app.

Experiment with the various setting to see how the output changes, it's not entirely obvious! You also get better results if you shoot a certain way, basically steadier, but you'll see :)

Look for the stabilization plugin.

Alternatively you could try hyperlapse outside of Vegas and then import the resultant footage.

Haha ya my girlfriend mentioned it was a little nauseating for the sections where I turn my head. For the majority of the ride I had it on my helmet. Then it was switched to my brother's handlebars. But what makes it so smooth and fast is this software that Microsoft recently came out with called Microsoft Hyperlapse. You can download a trial version I'm pretty sure but you can only put videos shorter than like 5 min in the software so it makes it tedious if you want to compile a lot of videos like mine.

You should really check out Microsoft's Hyperlapse (esp. while the desktop version is a free 'preview').

I've played around with it and the videos take a long-ass time to generate, but the end result is pretty cool.

Oh, hyperlapse - keep on eye on microsofts hyperlapse project. I believe windows users can download a "preview" version that will watermark the output, but hopefully the full version will be available to purchase/download soon: http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/projects/hyperlapseapps/

But with recent advances, I feel confident in saying that in the next 10 years or so that this may become a thing of the past.

Microsoft Hyperlapse Pro. They removed the water mark that used to show throughout the video but they added a few seconds shot with their logo at the end of the video. I used Sony's Movie Studio 13 Platinum for post processing.

If you have access to after effects you can use the image stabilization effect in there. Otherwise Hyperlapse might be your best bet. It's specifically for sped up footage.

I'd be really interested to see this video in Hyperlapse.

This is a short demo video that made it to the frontpage a while ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOpwHaQnRSY.

I'll list them for you

&nbsp; 1) Record Video

&nbsp; 2) Install Microsoft Hyperlapse here

&nbsp; 3) Insert the video

&nbsp; 4) Choose the speed (ranging from 2x-16x)

&nbsp; 5) Render it!

> Sorry about the shake, there was nothing I could do

You could try either the instagram or Microsoft hyperlapse video creators. You might get a really cool result, actually.

I wouldn't think you would see much swaying if you're up to speed, but that's up to you.

If you're looking to use your footage for hyperlapsing, you should check out Microsoft's Hyperlapse software. It will automatically smooth out the video

Nice. Is this the new Microsoft Hyperlapse app?

I have been meaning to give that a try. Maybe I'll slap the GoPro on for a ride this weekend and give it a go.
