# Fire Gimbal Control (Staeffelsberg)
# Fire Gimbal Control
Real-time control software for an automated **fire-watch gimbal**. A C++17 program runs on a tower-mounted
PC, rotates a pan gimbal carrying up to four industrial cameras, captures a 360° panorama for wildfire
detection, compresses each frame to JPEG XL, and reports to a ground station over MQTT.
This is the deployment for the **Staeffelsberg** fire-watch tower (FWT). The same codebase serves all towers;
the tower identity comes from `config.ini`.
A single codebase serves all fire-watch towers (FWT); the tower identity comes from `config.ini`.
The code is organized around an **SDK-independent core** (`fgc_core`: config, logging, capture scheduler,
parsers) and **swappable I/O implementations** behind three interfaces — motor controller, control channel,
