James Schubert Received a PhD. from Rutgers University in 1991 and was a member of the Russian Academy of Science before retiring to do photography and acquiring an interest in timelapse movies. He has been doing timelapse photography using timelapse controllers from several manufacturers, running dollies and pan-tilt heads. He developed the current lensmotors over a period of three years, producing three previous variants before settling on the current design. He has also designed limited production and one-off accessories for motion control systems including custom tilt plates, extended tracks, quick change motors and magnetic timing belt clips. .
