Hi there,
Some time ago I made a system using pd + arduino to trigger my Pentax via infrared at specific time points. The goal was to take shots of paper objects jumping in a paper bed attached to a speaker. It is part of a series of studies of paper design and photography. See some photos here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dlbh1642r4h0vtj/f-k8i1R23f (and work here http:// paperdesign.naveda.info)
It didn´t work well because there were hidden delays in the chain from PD to the Infrared led ...and the speaker was driven by pulses around 10 hz. I don't know if the patch is useful but the arduino code was based on the code from:
http://sebastian.setz.name/arduino/my-libraries/multi-camera-ir-control/
So, if you have no problems with latency, just build a arduino-pd system (see pduino), get an infrared led and have fun!
Let me know if its clear or if you need any help.

Has anyone been able to capture images from a Nikon DSLR with Pd?
I have a student who is able to control her dslr with osx "image capture" (space bar takes an image) but we can not seem to figure out how to capture directly with/to pd OR even trigger "image capture" with pd might work also for now....
BTW this is through the USB cable.
thinking out loud - can pd send a system wide event like "space bar" though shell maybe to "image capture"?
that is if pd can not control dslr directly
