Vivo Labs and Alpine Labs Merger Announcement
Radian and Michron are now under the same roof of Alpine Labs! For those who aren’t familiar with Michron, it is a stationary time lapse intervalometer that shares the same smartphone interface as Radian and fits in your pocket.
Now that we have a bigger, more experienced team, we will be able to provide more tutorials, more app updates, and just better support the time lapse community overall. We are also really excited about our increased ability to focus on making time lapse and motion time lapse more accessible to photographers.
