User wants camera to be open-sourced to boost trust and purchase intent
Problem
The camera is currently a closed-source product, limiting transparency of its features and quality, which erodes user trust; users say they would buy if the code were open-sourced, but the current closed nature restricts market potential.
Pain points
- Closed-source limits transparency of features and user trust
- Users are willing to pay but require open-source code
- Concern that closed-source maintenance caps quality
Questions to verify
- Would you purchase the camera if its code were open-sourced?
- Which open-source features are most important to you?
- What specific benefits would open-source provide for you?

This being closed source is sad. I get the aspect of wanting to earn money, but closed source code maintained by a few people at a hobby level puts an upper ceiling of the quality. I would love to buy this if the code was actually open source

The camera knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation.
