Our latests edition is the QdtSequencer. You define a dimension and then you can play the sequencer every x number of seconds and a selection will be made to the engine. You can stop and restart or even move forward a frame.
You basically define the type, the delay in seconds and if you want a key to control the play/pause like spacebar
<QdtComponent type="QdtSequencer" props={cols: ['Date'], keyCode: 32, delay: 1} />
Here is a live example
