* Manual measurement is possible with the button at the bottom right. It can be used for simple measurement from outside the course.
* Detection method
The passage judgment of Mini 4WD is regarded as detection when the average brightness of the shooting frame pixels of the camera exceeds the set sensitivity.
When the sensitivity is 85, it is detected that the average brightness before and after the frame changes by 15%,
When the sensitivity is 90, it is detected that the average brightness before and after the frame changes by 10%,
When the sensitivity is 60, it is detected when the average brightness before and after the frame changes by 40%.
If you fix the device, the accuracy will increase.
Even if the camera shakes without fixing, it will not be erroneously detected unless the brightness changes significantly.
