Field notes
The proposed measurement record would carry calibration methods, uncertainty, and limits alongside results, so observations can be distinguished from estimates. The current camera experiments use a marked tool, cardboard surface, and physical ruler; the page says the clips were cropped and rotated, with audio removed. It describes the annotated comparison as an early approach requiring calibration and independent validation.
