Firmware Feature: Adjustable camera brightness
Quote from Adam Williams on 2022-04-04, 16:32The Craftbot Flow Idex (and presumably others) has an inbuilt camera.
The inbuilt camera has automatic brightness, for adapting to the lighting conditions.
However, when the extruder passes in front of the camera's focus area, it detects a lighting change and adjusts accordingly, it then re-adjusts when the extruder moved out of the focus area.
For timelapses, this results in a strobing effect, as the lighting rapidly changes, see examples here https://imgur.com/a/6NP6Ozi
