Mounting

Trinet cameras use a standard action-camera style mount and ship with a head strap. Wrist cameras in a Wrist Kit are worn on the wrists.

Tips

  • Tighten the mount so the camera can't wobble — motion data measures the camera, and any play in the mount shows up as vibration.
  • Keep it level and forward-facing for egocentric recordings, roughly at eye height.
  • Route the cable along the strap and secure it at the back so it doesn't tug the camera when you turn your head. Carry the power bank in a pocket or on a belt.
  • Don't cover the camera with hair, hoods or fabric for long periods; it needs some air to stay cool (see Heat).
  • Don't twist the lens when mounting or cleaning — the focus is set at the factory.

Calibration and mounts

Calibration describes the camera itself, so moving it between mounts doesn't change it. If you need the position of the camera relative to your body or a robot, measure that separately.
