**Two Marker Distance**

In the 3D perspective view pane, you can quickly check 3D distance between a set of two markers. First of all, make sure to enable the Two Marker Distance feature under the visual aids, and select two markers to measure the distance from. Then, the corresponding displacement (in mm) between two markers will be displayed on the view port.

**Three Marker Angle**

Likewise, an angle formed by three markers can also be examined. Make sure the Three Marker Angle display feature is enabled under the visual aids. When this feature is enabled, the respective angle (in degrees) will be measured and displayed over the viewport when a set of three marker is selected from the scene. Note that the selection order will determine the vertex point when measuring the angle.

For Prime series cameras, image board temperature information will also be available. If there is any synchronization or hardware issues, they will also be indicated in the camera info.</li><li>Marker Coordinates: Show/Hide (x,y) coordinate information for the reflections that satisfy the 2D object filter.</li><li>Marker Centroids: Show/Hide centroid crosshairs for the reflections that satisfy the 2D object filter.</li><li>Marker Boundaries: Show/Hide square intrusion boundaries for the detected markers. Multiple reflections sharing, or intruding, the boundary is considered as one object.</li><li>Marker Circularity: Show/Hide circularity value label for detected reflections. The label will appear red if the reflection does not satisfy the 2D filter setting.</li><li>Marker Aspect Ratio: Show/Hide aspect ratio of the intrusion boundaries. The label will appear red if the reflection does not satisfy the 2D filter setting.</li><li>Marker Size: Show/Hide number of pixels involved in each reflection. The label will appear red if the reflection does not satisfy the 2D filter setting.</li><li>Marker Label: Applicable when tracking active LED markers. Show/Hide label ID for each marker.</li><li>Reticles: Show/Hide marker reticles to indicate where the reconstructed markers are located in respect to the camera view.</li><li>Masks: Show/Hide masked regions in each camera view.</li></ul> |
