We needed to be able to remotely focus some of our IR cameras in the lab so we came up with this solution using ~$100 worth of gear purchased from Sparkfun that uses LabVIEW and Arduino. This little build is extremely useful for situations where we can manually operate the camera on location (For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjAIwtdAyQA). If there is enough interest, I would be happy to share the code. All of the parts described in this video are available at Sparkfun (minus the IR camera of course).
