• Zooming Out: Conversely, to zoom out and widen your view, find the minus sign icon. Similar to zooming in, you can also accomplish this by double-clicking on the area you want to reduce in size. Just point your cursor to the region you wish to zoom out from and double click to adjust the perspective accordingly.
• Marker Button: The marker button allows you to mark points of interest on the map. Click on the marker button and place it precisely where you want by executing a left click. This enables you to highlight specific locations for reference or emphasis.
• Polyline: Utilize the polyline tool to draw lines on the map. Start by clicking on the Polyline button, then left-click on the map where you want to begin drawing the line. Continue left-clicking to plot additional points along the desired path. Once you've outlined your route, complete the polyline by clicking for a final time.
• Rectangular: When you need to demarcate a rectangular or square area on the map, employ the rectangular tool. To draw a square, initiate the action by left-clicking and holding the cursor, then drag it to encompass the desired space. Release the click when you've reached the desired dimensions to complete the rectangular shape.
• Polygons: For more complex shapes or boundaries, utilize the polygons feature. This tool allows you to draw custom shapes with multiple sides. Simply select the polygons option, then left-click to define each vertex of the shape you want to create. Continue clicking to add additional vertices until you've formed the desired polygon. Finally, complete the shape by clicking on the starting point or selecting a closing option. This enables you to accurately outline areas of interest on the map with precision.

Mission Planning

Creating and planning missions can all be done through the HUD. Creating Points of Interest (POIs), setting camera capture settings, and detailing the route can be done remotely through teleoperation or on site with a local connection. The first step for creating a mission is first mapping out your operation environment. This is done using breadcrumbs, which designate to the robot safe paths of travel and localization routes.
