Obstacle Images - a surprisingly fun feature
Obstacle Images
On robots that support the feature, assuming the right zoom level, you will now be able to click on the obstacle in the map view and see what the robot saw. I didn't expect it to be, but it is very neat to view the world through the perspective of the robot.
I was quite hesitant to implement such a feature for a long time, because there is a lot that one can do wrong when reading arbitrary large files based on user input from the filesystem and delivering them via HTTP.
But, given that long time I had to think about it, I believe that the implementation is now solid.
I hope that you will have as much fun with this feature as I had.
And, if your robot sees something neat and shareable, feel free to post the obstacle image in the comments below.
Side-note:
This should go without saying but please don't use this feature for abuse.
Talk with everyone living in (or even just visiting) your household about this before you enable it.
Even if you live alone, you can be certain that the robot will take a picture at the most unfortunate and inopportune moment imaginable.
Keep that in mind and maybe just keep the feature turned off if unsure.
The obstacle avoidance works regardless of it, so you're not losing out on any functionality if you do decide to not enable it.
Improvements to the Virtual Restrictions Editor
A simple change with great impact to the UX:
The virtual restrictions editor now also renders the path
This makes it a lot easier to precisely place virtual restrictions based on the real struggles the robot faced.
UI UX Fixes
Cutting lines for segments now have a shadow to not become invisible in front of the white background of the light theme.
Furthermore, zooming the map in by 1 step and zooming back out by 1 step will now make you end up with the same zoom level you started with - as one would expect it to.
Thanks to @vivia for both of these!
Improvements to the System Information View
The System Information page now displays the actual CPU load:
Previously, it used the system load, which got very confusing on robots with kernels where that feature is broken for some reason.
Now, these bars make sense again instead of just being stuck at 100% all the time.
Misc
-
Users of the Dreame L10s Pro Ultra Heat and X40 can now trigger the Mop-Dock cleaning procedure using a new quirk.
-
Non-feature-wise, this release comes with a bump to basically all dependencies, meaning that we're good on that front as well again.
