I don't think I'm alone when I say I cannot wait to see the images taken from the 10 metre tripod.

Thank you for your interest Nick...
It is possible to take pictures with a 10m tripod without much high-tech equipment...
You can trip the shutter from a laptop or Phocus mobile... I hope long fire wire cables work with the new firmware... I am thinking of getting a Claus VR station remote pan-and-stitch system... but my Manfrotto Agnoscope tripod has a powered tripod head as standard, and came with a CCTV system for viewing the viewfinder of a V-sys Hasselblad!
When using a tech camera you can calculate the tech camera movement settings and set them before you raise the camera... but electronic shutters would help, and shift-and-stitch would not be easy without a powered remote system... and it would be nice to have remote powered focus too, but this is versatile kit that can also be used for macro, which is what the thread is about.
Daylight live view without having to use ND filters would be very useful, so you might not want this discussion on your forum?
