Camera Focusing

Prepare Camera

Warning

Refocusing your camera will make your calibration inaccurate, make sure to recalibrate after focusing.

To ensure that your camera is focused properly, mount it to a secure surface and ensure it does not move drastically. Point your camera at a detailed surface like a calibration board, and make sure that it not too close to the camera.

Using Focus Mode

Important

When you enable Focus Mode, it will assign a Score to the current focus, this score depends on your environment and the lighting. This score cannot be compared to a focus score collected from other environments.

  • In the Cameras tab, turn on Focus Mode.

  • Rotate the lens on your camera to try and get the focus score as high as possible.

  • Once you cannot get a higher score, this indicates that your camera is fully focused and can be set in place using glue if desired.
