## Description

ZoeSync: A Precision Shutter Tool for Turntable Zoetropes (Phonotropes)<br><br>ZoeSync is a utility designed to reveal clear, stable 3D motion from zoetropes spinning on a standard record player (turntable). It acts as a digital shutter that synchronises your camera with the rotation to eliminate motion blur.<br><br>Support for Custom Projects<br><br>The app supports the three most common animation standards. You select the setting that matches your zoetrope:<br><br>Animation Cycles: Supports 12, 18, or 24-frame projects.<br>Turntable Speeds: Calibrated for 33, 45, and 78 RPM.<br><br>How to Use<br><br>1. Setup: Place your zoetrope on the turntable. Hold your phone in landscape (horizontal) orientation for the best view.<br><br>2. Configuration: Select the RPM of your player and the frame count that matches your physical animation (12, 18, or 24).<br><br>3. Sync Calibration: When you first start the app, it performs a Smart Calibration to ensure your phone’s camera sensor is perfectly timed with the rotation. You may notice a brief shift in brightness or a flicker—this &quot;handshake&quot; ensures that even basic or older phone sensors lock onto the correct frame rate for a blur-free image.<br><br>4. Lighting: Tap the built-in light button. Note: To freeze figures in motion, the app uses an ultra-fast shutter speed. This makes the screen appear darker than a standard camera app, but it is necessary to ensure the animation is sharp rather than a blurry smear. For the best results, use a bright desk lamp.<br><br>5. Capture: Record and save a video of the 3D effect directly to your phone.<br><br>Features<br><br>Frame Synchronisation: Precision timing for 12, 18, and 24-frame zoetropes.<br><br>Multi-Speed Support: Accurate viewing for all standard record player speeds (33, 45, and 78 RPM).<br><br>High-Speed Shutter: A precision-locked shutter to eliminate motion blur and ghosting.<br><br>Universal Compatibility: Intelligent sensor tuning ensures stable synchronisation works on a wide variety of hardware, from basic models to high-end devices.<br><br>Light Utility: Integrated torch control for high-speed camera exposure.<br><br>Privacy First: No accounts, no tracking, and no data collection. Your videos stay on your device.<br><br>Note: This is a utility app. You need a physical rotating animation (like a 3D-printed zoetrope) and a record player to use it.
