I have a robot that generates 160images in a pano, at 3 exposures.  I shoot up to a 10 or so sets that way.  I try to remember to do something in the photo stream to mark the start of each one, but in the heat of the moment I often forget.  I'm looking at writing a simple c# command line program that looks at the time between each exposure, calculate the median, which is typically 8 seconds for me, then write a file that fits consectively based on name , like DSC0700-NEWSeries.txt when it sees a break in time between photos that 2x median size.  Just looking for way to streamline workflow especially when I'm pretty tired after a shoot.

Does anyone have a good alternate way?  just doing my due diligence before i code.

Hi Ken,

Have you tried the Batch Builder in PTGui Pro? It can create projects,
grouping the images based on a maximum number of seconds between shots.
See screenshot.

It's just a fixed threshold, not your statistical approach, but perhaps
it would work.

Kind regards,
