1. A method for dynamic synchronization of a frame rate to a detected cadence, the method comprising:

  • configuring a camera to operate according to an initial frame rate;

    initiating capture of a time lapse image sequence on the camera, according to the initial frame rate;

    recording motion data of the camera during the capture of the time lapse image sequence, the motion data recorded by one or more sensors tracking motion of the camera while the camera captures the time lapse image sequence;

    converting the motion data in a particular window of time from time domain data to frequency domain data;

    determining a dominant frequency in the frequency domain data;

    determining a modified frame rate that is within a predefined tolerance range of the dominant frequency;

    continuing capture of the time lapse image sequence according to the modified frame rate; and

    storing the time lapse image sequence to a storage medium.
