GoPro remotely controlled with Raspberry Pi

The connector on the back of GoPro has three working pins: GND, Power/mode button and Trigger button. In order to emulate the button press, I short the corresponding pin to the ground, using raspberry GPIO port for that. I wrote a little python script which gets the user input (via raw_input() function) and emulates the press'n'release sequence on one of gpio pins (used RPi.GPIO lib).
