Photos on one end,
Videos on the other end,
& Burst Photos,
preferably captured in High-Res with High-Precision Timing,
in the middle.

Apple has done well on the ends, but NOT so in the middle,
where (our) Photosets NOT ONLY competes,
but is (also) Light Years Ahead of ALL other Camera Apps.

News Update : 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 21, 2025

Cosmosent Labs, Inc., the leader in Burst Photo Camera App Technology & Domain/Application/Use-Case support, is today announcing that the next update of Photosets, v11.6, out soon, adds support for controlling the camera's Trash button via a BT remote.

As a reminder, this is the camera feature that enables a User to delete a just-captured photo set BEFORE it is written to NAND flash memory.

It is a Unique & Innovative Feature of Photosets' Capture Engine.

From an application perspective, for starters, think Baseball & Softball.

And specifically, capturing a batter's activity, with the User beginning a Long Press capture op just as the pitcher is releasing the ball.

When the op is started, one does NOT really know if the photo set will be worth keeping OR NOT.

That's the beauty of this camera feature.

It enables the User to delete it if they (quickly) decide NOT to keep it.

News Update : 6 AM (La Jolla-time) Monday, April 21, 2025

FYI, this has been making the rounds lately so we thought we'd make it public for ALL to see.

It illustrates what it would take for us to hit $1.5M USD in revenue this year.

The gist, 210.4K "Photosets Unit Sales" is what it would take.

Very doable, we believe, with a proper Marketing & Branding Campaign.

News Update : 5:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025

FYI, one more thing to announce today.

We want to clarify why some of our posts are related to what we refer to as
our prototype E90 M3 Lite project.

Simply put, we believe we can financially capitalize upon an opportunity if we can figure-out how to cost-effectively Rebuild N52 Engines.

And currently, we're up againsgt a Key Decision, what to do regarding the cylinders.

i.e., regardng the oil consumption problem that remains even after the Valve Stem Oil Seal R&R job.

As a reminder, the Cylinder Head work was completed a month OR so ago.

Also for clarify, we don't do the work, we farm it off.

i.e., we have other build to our Tech Specs.

And ideally, we would be selling Refurbished 2006-2009 BMW E90 sedans
(& most with a 6-speed manual transmission).

And naturally, with a Cosmosent-built N52 engine as the centerpiece.

News Update : 2 PM (La Jolla-time) Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025

FYI, here's two good Tech Articles related to our current task for our prototype E90 M3 Lite project:

BMW cylinder sleeves

Gen. sleeves & liners

And BTW, Ductile iron sleeves is the main take-away.

Probably NOT the route we'll take, but it is an interesting option.

E.g., Bore 0.5 mm over & add 0.5 mm-thick Ductile iron sleeves.

News Update : 10:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025

FYI, one more thing to announce today.

We're now trying to Drum Up support for our Baseball & Softball Marketing Campaign.

i.e., Corp Partners.

And Yes, it's more along the lines of Business Dev than Marketing.

News Update : 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025

FYI, we're on track to release our Baseball & Softball App Note + its companion Video Tutorial by month's end !

And BTW, we estimate the the Total Addressable Market (TAM) for just this Domain/Application/Use-Case to be ~1.5M End Users.

And that's just here in the States.

And, as a Heads Up, it's one of Photosets' under-the-radar Camera Features that makes it special for this Domain/Application/Use-Case.

Specifically, the ability for an End User to delete a captured photo set BEFORE it's processed & written to NAND flash storage.

Consider this scenario, you start capturing just-BEFORE the pitcher releases the ball.

At that point, one does NOT know if the batter will swing, OR hit the ball.

If neither occurs, OR if one is just concerned with hits, the End User hits the Camera's "trash" icon to delete the just-captured photo set.

And BTW, it's this feature plus the app's custom Photo Set-based filesystem that makes it ALL possible.

That and the unique & innovative High-Res, High-Precision Timing Capture Engine, that is.

On a side note, today we'd like to point-out that one of Trump's main weaknesses is that he is NOT a Detailed-oriented person, he is a BIG picture ONLY person.

i.e., kind of the opposite of an Engineer, Scientist, & (Technical) Economist.

As such, it is our very strong opinion that he should be surrounding himself with Engineers, Scientists, & (Technical) Economists.

(1) We're Car Guys & Girls, so we're now referring to this as the Redline version.

Notice that for 10-bit 422 4K photo capture, v11.5 matches Redline.

(2) Prior to v11.5, we were referring to this as our In House "Advanced Features" feature set.

And importantly, prior to v11.5, NO End Users had access to it.

Now, with v11.5, ALL End Users have access to it !

And BTW, our decision to fold it into the Base version of Photosets is strategic.

📌

Click on the graph to view its 4K Res version.


The difference between the Orange line & the Burgundy line represents (our estimate of) the high-end iPhone revenue Apple "left on the table," due to iPhone Upgrade Cycles being longer than they could have & should have been.

i.e., the decision by iPhone owners as to when to upgrade.

And for clarity, it's a direct result of Apple intentionally supressing knowledge of 1/3 of the Camera Tech in every iPhone.

i.e., the Burst Photo Camera App Domains/Applications/Use-Cases.

Important Note for Sun, March 30, 2025

The following describes how the different versions of Photosets used to stack up:


📌 High-Level Overview

Note: Neither of Photosets' two IAPs are currently available for purchase.

Both are relatively new & neither has had ANY sales.

(3) v11.6

(4) v11.7

(5) Super Producer ONLY: 30 photos/set,
Both IAPs: 45 photos/set.

-----


📌 Quick Overview:

i.) The "Base" version of Photosets is a solid, full-featured Burst Photo Camera App.

Its ONLY drawback is limited Captured Durations.

ii.) The "Producer" version has 2x the Capture Durations.

That makes it Easier-to-Use,
& makes it possible to craft "credible" Short Form, Multi-Scene Videos
from your captured 8-bit photo sets.

In large part because of the High-Precision Timing (HST) nature of the app's Burst Photo Capture Engine.

And BTW, the Base version has the same Short Form, "60" scene Video Maker as the Producer version.

The ONLY difference is the sizes of the photo sets used as inputs.

iii.) The "Super Producer" version adds 10-bit 422 4K photo capture support.

Plus, the ability to craft 10-bit ProRes 422HQ 4K video "scenes" from your captured 10-bit photo sets.

Please note that 10-bit 422 4K photo capture can ONLY be enabled on iPhones that support it.

Currently, ONLY the "four" newest "Pro" iPhones.

i.e., the 15P, 15PM, 16P, & 16PM.
