Screen Message Component

Hakon Lislebo

What about a component that displays a custom message to the user?

I see the need to adjust the exposure while in flight before a mission starts for real. Could be neat to have the drone pause with the correct scene in frame (already pointing on the first POI) and ask the user to adjust exposure and set focus etc. Or "Look for cars before proceeding" if crossing above a road... :-)

    We had a similar idea for an Input component type. Also thinking about a Condition component type that would allow you to only execute a sub-component if a certain condition is met, such as a type of drone or the camera/lens that is connected. For example, only execute a 3:2 aspect ratio command if the drone type is Mavic 2 pro. That way you can still mark the command as required. Added both of these to the roadmap.

    Perfect, that would also allow for choosing to shoot in DLog or standard color based on user input, which was another scenario I had in mind. I do not utilize the camera commands fully today since I want to have the flexibility to choose on each execution of the plan.

    For now you can just run both commands and mark each as not required. Just put the preferred command last.
