03 / THRESHOLD RECORD
UTCWhen the bell moves.
- Events appear after an observed counter increase.
The source counter records triggers with a 2.5-second cooldown and restarts with the tracker. Its trigger can differ from the 3D amplitude threshold displayed here.
Image, motion,
observation.
- Position & reference
- The detected bell center, apparent radius and slowly adapting equilibrium reference remain in image pixels.
- Offset & velocity
- X / Y / Z movement is transmitted in millimeters and millimeters per second. Positive Z points away from the lens. The overhead diagram plots physical X against depth Z. Y remains in the readout as the vertical component.
- Fit & calibration
- Geometric fit is a matching score, not a probability or brightness reading. Samples at 15% or below are omitted from the traces. Z is inferred from apparent size; its accuracy requires a physical calibration test.
THE OBSERVATION
Look closely.
A pendulum offers a repeatable way to explore oscillation. Symbolic uses belong to a separate interpretive context.

Make a record.
Record the string length, release angle and time for ten full oscillations. Repeat without pushing the bob.
Keep the original observation, the method and any interpretation together in the record.
