Log files are generated once a recording has been successfully initiated by pressing the RECORD button on the navigation bar or the Start Recording button in the Camera App.

Manage Log Files​

  • File Listing: The app lists all log files stored on the robot, providing users with a clear view of available data.

  • File Details: Each file carries a time stamp and a file size, making it easier to gauge the data volume at a glance.

  • Delete: Users can select and delete any log file. This feature is particularly useful for managing storage space and removing outdated or unnecessary data.

Visualize Log Files​

Log files can be viewed locally by selecting the checkbox next to the desired file and then pressing the open button. If the log file includes data from multiple camera streams, these can be chosen from the dropdown menu located at the upper left corner of the screen.

Transfer Files to USB Drive​

  • USB Copy: If a USB drive is plugged into the robot, users can easily copy log files from the robot's storage to the USB drive. This functionality enhances data portability and facilitates easy sharing or backup of important logs.

USB Requirements​

  1. Your USB drive should be formatted as either ext4 or exFAT for the app to detect your drive.
  2. USB drives with multiple partitions may fail to be detected.
  3. You should plug the drive into the brain AFTER booting up the brain and launching the app.
  4. [Recommended] USB 3.0 devices will transfer files significantly faster than USB 2.0 devices.
