Camera Frame Controller Node

Type: Connector

Compatible with: Connector Graph

Description:

The Camera Frame Controller Node is designed to display images from your robot's camera directly within the Neutron interface. It receives image data in base64 format and renders it in a designated UI element, providing a real-time visual representation of the camera's view.

Input:

• msg.payload: A string containing the base64-encoded image data.

Output:

• (None) The node does not have any explicit output connections. It renders the received image directly in the associated UI element within the Neutron interface.

Example Usage:

1. Add to Interface: Drag and drop the Camera Frame Controller Node onto your Connector Graph.
2. Link to UI Element: Connect the node to an Image UI element in your interface.
3. Send Image Data: Ensure that your robot's software is configured to send base64-encoded image data to the msg.payload input of this node.
4. View Image: The received image will be displayed in the linked Image UI element.

Important Considerations:

• Image Encoding: Make sure the image data sent to the node is correctly encoded in base64 format.
• Image Size: Large images may take longer to transmit and render. Consider optimizing image size or compression for smoother performance.
• Frame Rate: The node will render each new image it receives. If your robot sends images at a high frame rate, the UI may not be able to keep up, resulting in dropped frames. You can use a Rate Limiting Node to control the frequency of image updates if needed.
