Calibration Tool: add buttons to start/stop the camera
Suggestion from http://official-rtab-map-forum.206.s1.nabble.com/stereo-example-tp10512p10586.html

how the GUI work right now is when we open it , it just start detecting , and it may be laggy or crash so the request will be like
when we open the GUI it will not do anything its on pause , so we could set the data like base line , and size of square there will be start/stop button and ELP camera check box ( only use if you are using usb stereo camera in case if it lag or ELP brand name also [ Chinese ] )
i posted the updated header and .cpp on the forum , apologize of responding late i forgot i was so excited
thanks in advance
image from my imagination , about the ELP check you can put it back in at the source , this is just an example
The UI is generally lagging when the checkerboard is not detected, which could make it difficult to change the checkerboard config before doing calibration. The start/stop button would help to have a responsive UI before starting recording images.
About the ELP mode, do you mean a Step-by-Step recording mode? Like pressing "space-bar" to trigger a sample instead of automatically record new samples?
Overall, to have more control when an image is captured and/or added as sample, we may need to refactor Calibration widget to be the owner of the camera driver to easily pause/start the camera or get a single capture on-demand. Currently, the camera is started in background from the Preferences dialog, then Calibration dialog is just subscribing to published images.
