Abstract
The development of effective user interfaces for an autonomous system can be quite difficult, especially for devices that are to be operated in the field where access to standard computer platforms may be difficult or impossible. One approach in this type of environment is to utilize tablet or phone devices, which when coupled with an appropriate tool such as ROSBridge can be used to connect with standard robot middleware. This has proven to be a successful approach for devices with mature user interface requirements but may require significant software development for experimental systems. Here we describe RCON, a software tool that allows user interfaces on iOS devices to be configured on the device itself, in real time, in response to changes in the robot software infrastructure or the needs of the operator. The system is described in detail along with the accompanying communication framework and the process of building a user interface for a simple autonomous device.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
