Carl, I completely forgot about the horse photography, and I even did the
exact same experiment at university for a photography project 10 yrs ago
with a Human runner and a set of cameras DOH!!!
I think I’m going to do this and stuff the patent, as your 100% right, there
is no difference from what Muybridge did in the 1870s, to what these patents
cover or I have proposed to do.
The only thing I’m a little worried about, is that the cameras he used
weren’t activated all at the same time; they were activated as they tripped
a hair wire a few milliseconds apart.
I have also just emailed a gentleman called Stephen Herbert who wrote a book
about Eadweard Muybridge, to ask if he knows of any movie which was produced
by Muybridge with the cameras in a circle to show the same object in the
same place but from different angles.
If I can find anything like that at all, the patents are 100% squashed in my
uneducated opinion.
Thanks again guys for all your help, my unofficial legal advice team :)

A patent? For what?

Scott is right, those "patents" are a joke.
