Installation (as performed in August 2020)

Mount cameras on joints and joints on clamps

Make sure that the camera is not upside-down.

Prepare 16 safety ropes

  1. Cut to the right length
  2. Use a lighter at both ends
  3. prepare 8-knots as in rock climbing

Mount cameras on truss and wire them with the two switches

Mount the 16 cameras in the corners and at each 1/4 of the edges. Use the safety ropes, and wire them to the two switches as below.

Orient cameras and adjust focus

Once the setup is up-and-running, adjust the focus of each camera using a marker at 2/3 of the working distance. Skype and screen sharing may be helpful.

In the corners

The bottom of FoV is parallel to the long edges, and the bottom right corner is vertical.

At 1/4 of a short edge

The top of the FOV is horizontal, and the camera points toward the center.

At 1/2 of a short edge

The bottom of the FOV is vertical, and the camera aims downward.

At 1/4 of a long edge

The top of the FOV is horizontal, and the camera points toward the center.

At 1/2 of a long edge

The bottom of the FOV is vertical, and the camera aims downward.
