laptop controlled camera flash?
I need to make a virtual briefcase bomb for airsoft matches. It will have a laptop with custom-written software. Is there a way to attach camera flashes to a laptop to simulate an explosion? or, is there a way to make the laptop trigger them via USB?
Why a laptop? Rather an expensive (and easily damaged) prop I would have thought...
You could always use a strobe light or a camera flash and rig it to a switch which is activated by opening the case.
