Live Video Feed

Fleet View 2.0 supports advanced video handling for drone operators, allowing seamless transitions between different video feeds and dynamic stream prioritization for enhanced situational awareness.

Overview

Your visibility choices directly impact what appears in the live video feed panel. When you select and show a drone, its associated video feeds automatically populate in the bottom panel. When you hide a drone, those video streams are removed, freeing up screen real estate for the feeds that matter most to your current operation. This integration ensures your video monitoring aligns perfectly with your data monitoring, creating a cohesive workspace that adapts to your operational priorities.

Video View Switching

Fleet View 2.0 provides dual video access for each visible drone, enabling users to switch between the default Payload view and the FPV (First-Person View) stream. This allows independent and flexible monitoring of each drone’s perspective.

Default and FPV View Control

• Default Mode: All drones feeds are displayed in Payload view by default

Payload View

• Switching Views: Click the "FPV" button to switch all visible drone feeds to FPV streams.

FPV View

Pinned Drone View and Spotlight Mode

Pinning a drone activates Spotlight Mode, enhancing its visibility in the interface and enabling focused tracking. Only one drone can be pinned at a time.

Spotlight Mode Functionality

• Pinning a Drone: Select the “Pin” icon on a drone to enter spotlight mode.

• Enhanced Video Display: The FPV stream is shown prominently on the right, with the Payload stream displayed next to it.

• Automatic Map Tracking: While spotlighted, the map automatically follows the pinned drone’s movement.

When a drone is pinned, Fleet View 2.0 displays three available video streams: Payload, FPV, and Dock. Operators can choose which stream appears as the primary (large) view.

Managing Primary Streams
