Triggertrap Mobile update adds WiFi control for device-laden shutterbugs

Triggertrap's automatic shutter release kit has come a long way since its humble [Kickstarter debut](http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/05/insert-coin-triggertrap-open-source-automatic-camera-release-v/), and today, yet another feature is being added to its [iOS](http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/30/triggertrap-remote-activated-dslr-iOS-app/) and [Android](http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/13/triggertrap-now-available-on-android/) apps -- wireless mode. The good news is that you can now control all of those advanced trigger settings from a phone or tablet over WiFi, but the bad news is, you'll need two of them. One remains bound to the camera by cable and dongle, acting as a slave device that carries out orders given from a second, master device. You don't actually need a _real_ WiFi network to make use of the new feature, though, as connecting the slave to a wireless hotspot running on the master will work the same.
