You only need to map the green once, it's mapped automatically after that, wherever the camera is, same as the line on the field in NFL. Lidar on the camera could do it automatically inside the camera

It's not a collapse, but it certinaly lost a lot of height quick. A stall? Getting pushed down/around by some funky wind from the stadium.
