 I wrote same **Python scripts** to execute simple actions, like **start** and **stop recording**, turning off the **front LCD** and **LEDs**. Python is very flexible: I can run the same scripts from my **GNU/Linux** PC or from the **Android** smartphone (once I installed the **[[https://termux.com/|Termux]]** app). Here it is a screenshot of the script launched from an icon on my Android device:
-On Android I installed also the **Termux:Widget** app which allows to add shortcut icons over the desktop which will launch the scripts. I have scripts to start and stop recording, to change white balance, to turn ON and OFF the front display and to power OFF the camera. Each launcher was customized with its own icon.
+On Android I installed also the **Termux:Widget** app which allows to add shortcut icons over the desktop which will launch the scripts. I have scripts to start and stop recording, to change white balance, to turn ON and OFF the front display and to power OFF the camera. Each launcher was customized with its own **icon** (se the screenshot to the left). When a script is launched, the output is printed into the text console; to have a more visible feedback I used the **figlet** program to print large ASCII-art messages (se the screenshot to the right).
+In this **[[https://github.com/RigacciOrg/ambarella-api-pytools|GitHub repository]]** you can find a Python module which contains basic functions to send and receive the JSON messages, plus some handy scripts to do basic operations, like **REC Start**, **REC Stop**, set **White Balance**, etc.
