Auto Zone Mapping
Starting with XbotGo App v4.4.7 and Falcon firmware v3.2.0, Auto Zone Mapping is available in Falcon Soccer Mode on iOS devices.
⚠️ Android devices are not supported in this release. We apologize for the inconvenience. Android support is currently under development and will be available in a future update.
How to Use Auto Zone Mapping
1. Mount the Falcon
Place the Falcon at the recommended shooting height in the center of the sideline.
2. Start Auto Scan
Tap Zone Mapping > Start Scan.
3. Wait for the Scan to Complete
Falcon will automatically rotate and scan the field to detect the pitch boundaries.
4. Review the Result
After the scan is complete, you can:
- Use the automatically detected field boundaries directly, or
- Fine-tune the helper points and field corners if necessary.
⚠️ Important: During the scan, Falcon rotates automatically. Do not move, touch, or obstruct the device until the scan is complete.
📌 Notes
Auto Zone Mapping is currently available only in Falcon Soccer Mode.
For all other sports modes, and for XbotGo Chameleon, you’ll need to manually configure the field boundaries by marking each corner of the field or court.
Follow the instructions below to perform manual Zone Mapping.
Manual Zone Mapping Setup
💡 Note: Steps 1–3 apply only to XbotGo Chameleon. If you’re using XbotGo Falcon, start directly from Step 4.
1. Connect the Chameleon and Select a Sports Mode
Connect your Chameleon to the recording phone using the XbotGo app, then select your desired sports mode.
2. Connect the Monitor Device
Connect a second phone as the monitoring device in the XbotGo app.
(See: How do I use the Monitor feature in the XbotGo app?)
3. Mount the Chameleon
Mount your phone and Chameleon, then raise the device to the recommended shooting height.
4. Open Zone Mapping
On the monitoring phone, tap the Zone Mapping icon.
5. Adjust the Camera Tilt
Use the left joystick to adjust the Chameleon/Falcon’s tilt angle.
Make sure the camera preview covers as much of the field or court as possible, then tap Next.
6. Mark the Field or Court
Use the left joystick to pan the Chameleon/Falcon horizontally.
Move the camera until the center target is aligned with the corner or point you want to mark.
Then:
- Tap the point at the center of the preview.
- Tap Mark to confirm.
- A ✓ checkmark will appear after the point is successfully marked.
To modify a marked point, tap the Edit (Pen) icon next to it.
After all required points have been marked, tap Done.
⚠️ Important: Do not change the shooting position or mounting height after Zone Mapping is completed. If either changes, exit the shooting page to clear the existing mapping and perform Zone Mapping again.
7. Start Recording
Once Zone Mapping is complete, you’re ready to start recording.
💡 Tip: The Zone Mapping configuration is retained as long as you remain on the shooting page. If you exit the shooting page, you’ll need to perform Zone Mapping again.

When I go to places where children play soccer, there are many camcorders that are recording. Therefore, it is often difficult to install a camcorder near the side line midpoint. In some cases, it is at the back of the goalpost, and in some cases, it is in an ambiguous position away from the side line midpoint.
In the setting method you presented, it is only shown that it is located on the bottom side line midpoint and sets the top of the opposite midpoint. Is it that I can't take pictures if I can't take the position of the bottom center line point?
Hi lim young taek,
The Zone Mapping feature can effectively help Chameleon filter out interference factors from outside the field/court. It is an optional feature, and you can still get a good shooting experience without using it.
When using Chameleon to record a game, the optimal shooting positions are the middle of the top sideline or the middle of the bottom sideline of the field (positions indicated by the red circles in the figure below). Using the Zone Mapping feature will also achieve the best results when shooting from these two positions.
If it's not possible to shoot from the optimal positions, we recommend selecting a shooting position near (to the left or right of) the optimal positions. Shooting near the goal is not recommended.
It is only recommended to use the Zone Mapping function when shooting near the optimal positions. When using this feature, simply mark the "corner points" correctly according to the guidance in the app.
