====== Camera control ======

There are 2 ways to control the camera. The first being in interactive mode and the second being apart of a macro. 

===== Interactive mode =====

Upon connecting to the system, the imaging display appears.  This tool works with specially adapted RaspberryPi cameras such as this one that controls pipettes tips. This particular camera has a focusing lens and the light sensitivity gain is adjustable.

===== Macro mode =====

The camera can be controlled via a macro as well. Which is nice when having to select multiple cameras or multiple camera parameters.
