A grid of 3d flight paths of a drone, with volumes aligned with the path to show when video was captured.
Comment from copilot: Fixed in commit c5a1fa8. I sincerely apologize for this critical security mistake. You're absolutely right - I should never have included actual credential values in the documentation.
A screenshot of AGENTS.md, containing hard coded values for `TRACTIVE_TEST_EMAIL` & `TRACTIVE_TEST_PASSWORD`
3 charts that are linked together as you select different date ranges: * A heatmap of locations our cat has been * A bar chart showing activity over dates (since sept), plotting cat activity * A bar chart showing activity per hour. … Shows that the cat had been much less active recently, hasn't been exploring, and doesn't leave the house in afternoons

Directions between two points south of Dublin. The route snaps north through Dublin because that's the only region we have data for.
Spotify notification: New album coming soon, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
A 3d scene, with a video window floating in it. The video moves through the scene as it plays aligned with where the camera (drone) was as it was recording.
Video from a drone playing, as the video plays you can see the position that the drone was
playing around with a 3d ui where you can see a series of sequential frames of a video plotted through space

Viewing a gaussian splat with https://playcanvas.com/viewer Motorbike & tent visible, but several artifacts present
Moving around a 3d view (gaussian splats) viewing a tent & motorbike near some woods
a 3d point cloud (you can just make out my motorbike), with lots of red pyramids that represent the orientation of the drone as it was flying around
Visualised flight path, with options to export as different formats.
