12. The Capturing Data screen will appear with a graphic display of three axes and a sphere.
13. The vehicle must be rotated slowly 360 degrees about all axes. As you rotate, the sphere will
update with areas that are mapped. The goal is to cover as much of the sphere as possible.
a. Start by holding the ROV flat and spin around in a circle to rotate about the ROV's vertical
axis.
b. Hold the ROV upside down and spin around in a circle to rotate about the ROV's inverted
vertical axis.
c. Hold the ROV with its port (left) side up and spin around in a circle to rotate about the
ROV's pitch axis.
d. Hold the ROV with its starboard (right) side up and spin around in a circle to rotate about
the ROV's inverted pitch axis.
e. Hold the ROV nose up and spin around in a circle to rotate about the ROV's roll axis.
f. Hold the ROV nose down and spin around in a circle to rotate about the ROV's inverted
roll axis.
g. The sphere should show six circles, one on each side roughly centered about each axis.
h. Repeat the above steps, but angle the ROV 45 degrees relative to two axes in each case.
An example would be holding the ROV flat, and then tipping the front down 45 degrees
and at the same time the left down 45 degrees for the rotation.
i. This should result in additional circles which should more completely cover the sphere.
The sphere does not have to be completely covered, but there should not be any large
gaps in the coverage.
14. After completing the rotations to cover as much of the sphere as possible click on the Process
button.
