Abstract
A method includes showing a plurality of regions on a display each associated with a respective gimbal of a plurality of gimbals carried by a movable object and configured to depict data captured by a payload carried by the respective gimbal. The plurality of regions include a first region and a second region, and the plurality of gimbals include a first gimbal associated with the first region and a second gimbal associated with the second region. The method further includes, in response to a user interaction with the first region, controlling operation of the first gimbal and not operation of the second gimbal based on the user interaction with the first region when the movable object is operating in an independent mode, and simultaneously controlling the operation of the first gimbal and at least the operation of the second gimbal in a synchronized manner based on the user interaction with the first region when the movable object is operating in a simultaneous mode.
