Bottom bar — camera status & controls¶
Always visible at the bottom of the window, regardless of the selected tab.
🚧 TODO: screenshot with callouts.
Controls¶
- Per-camera status — green/red connection indicator, Connect/Disconnect toggle and battery level for each camera. Serial numbers are read from
go2kin_config.json. - Resolution and FPS dropdowns — global; applied to all connected cameras simultaneously. Options are currently hardcoded for the Hero 12 Black with 50 Hz anti-flicker (Australia): 1080 / 2.7K / 4K and 25 / 50 / 100 / 200 fps. See Known issues for 60 Hz regions and other camera models.
- Trial timer — red mm:ss timer shown beside the record button while cameras are recording (Recording-tab trials and the Calibration extrinsic/origin flows). It starts once all cameras confirm recording and stops the moment you press Stop, before the download/sync processing runs.
