  • Main panel:
    • Left column (top to bottom): record, sensor, alerts.
    • Right column (top to bottom): preview (cameras + sensors), total frame rate trends.

Mobile​

Open the same URL on your phone. Bottom tabs (left to right):

Record screen

Settings
  • Record: record, alerts, total frame rate trends.
  • Preview: preview (camera and sensor data visualization).
  • Files: file manager.
  • Settings: sensor, Wi-Fi management, Chinese/English toggle, upgrade.

Use the icon at the top-right to sign in to the data platform.

System status​

Shows Recording, Preview, or Idle.

Record panel​

Start/stop recording and related status.

Alerts​

Lists issues such as sensor count mismatch, missing devices, or low disk space.

Sensor panel​

Used to configure sensors, enable/disable sensors, and view sensor information.

Shows how total frame rate across sensor streams changes over time.

  • Preview only: trends for sensors you have enabled for preview.
  • Recording only, or preview + recording: trends for all connected sensors.
  • During recording, if frame rate is abnormal (much higher or lower than expected), the chart segment for that period is shown in red.

Preview panel​

Controls and tiles for camera and non-camera sensors.

Pre-flight​

  • Sensors are preconfigured at the factory; with correct wiring the alert panel should be clear.
  • Check the sensor panel and confirm every sensor you need is enabled.

Capture​

Preview​

Preview UI

  1. Select cameras/mics/sensors in the dropdown.
  2. Click Start preview / Listen next to the dropdown to start the preview for the selected sensors:
    • Camera live preview tiles appear in the preview panel.
    • Microphone audio plays through the speaker in real time (only one microphone preview at a time).
    • Other sensor data is shown as visualisation charts:
      • IMU data: shows real-time acceleration and angular velocity trends.
      • Encoder data: shows real-time joint-angle trends.
      • Click the data name or icon above a chart to show/hide that data stream.
      • Click the Pause button in the top-right corner of a chart to freeze the view at the current moment.
      • With Dynamic axis on, the vertical axis auto-scales to the data; with it off, the range stays fixed.
  3. Refreshing the page does not stop preview.
  4. Toggle sensors in the dropdown while preview runs.
  5. Click the button again to stop.

Record​

Record UI

  1. Start recording: 3-second voice countdown, then “start”.
  2. Refreshing does not stop recording.
  3. Stop recording ends all selected streams.
tip

When using a gripper, you can open and close it twice in quick succession to start or stop recording (a second trigger is ignored for 3 seconds after the first).

During recording, the gripper indicator LED switches to a flashing green state.

Drop detection​

  • A steady “deng” prompt indicates drops on a stream; other streams keep recording until you stop.
  • No hot-plug recovery mid-take: reconnecting hardware will not resume that stream; voice prompts continue until recording stops.
  • Dropped takes show a red detail icon in Files.

Preview + record​

  • Preview and recording can run at the same time.
  • You can start the other function while one is already running.
  • While both are active, refreshing the page does not interrupt either.
  • Starting or stopping one function does not affect the state of the other.

Local files​

Files

Storage stats​

  • Shows how much storage is currently in use.
tip

The system reserves space for data processing before export or upload, so it dynamically adjusts the free-space threshold based on the current size of stored files to trigger a low-storage alert in time.

Inspect​

Open the detail icon for size, duration, sensor mix, and drop flags (red = drops).

Data playback​

Click the playback icon on a data item to enter its playback view.

Data playback

Use the sidebar to select the content you want to view.

Delete​

  • Single, multi-select, or select-all; click the Delete button to remove the selected files.
  • A confirmation dialog appears before deletion. Cannot undo.

Export​

  • Single, multi-select, or select-all export.
  • Export format is .mcap; you can choose whether to skip video compression:
    • Video compression: re-encodes MJPEG to H.264 at about 6% of the original size (lossy / not reversible).
  • When exporting multiple files, you can choose whether to merge them into one file.
