Head-mounted cameras

Head-mounted camera positioning is not currently supported.

Beam Bench currently supports a fixed overhead or lid-mounted camera. It does not track machine position while capturing, stitch multiple frames, or compensate for a camera that moves with the laser head.

Do not use the fixed-camera mapping or alignment workflow for a head-mounted camera. The overlay may look correct at one head position and be wrong after the head moves.

Use a rigid fixed mount that sees the required work area. For close-up placement, move the material into the fixed camera's useful area or use the laser's Frame command to verify the job boundary.
