The XbotGo Chameleon is described as upcoming when I open this package in August 2024. That matters for the title: this is the original preview, not a claim that it is still in pre-sale today.

What interests me is the split between the phone and the mount. The Chameleon handles the tracking side while the phone is used for the recording.

## Fit the phone, then connect the controls

I look through the remote, cable and manual before fitting my phone into the holder. The base has padding and a tripod connection.

After powering it on, I connect through the XbotGo app. I also remove the remote’s battery tab, turn it on and select it when it appears in the app.

## Try it inside before a game

I choose follow-me mode rather than pretending there is a sport happening in the room. I show directional movement and work through the mode controls, including photo and video recording prompts.

That is an indoor control demonstration. I do not film a match, verify jersey-number tracking or measure image quality, full movement range or battery life.

## A first step in the setup

XbotGo sent this for the preview. Later, I opened the [lime-green Chameleon](<https://pyrosoft.pro/blog/capture-every-play-xbotgo-chameleon-ai-sports-tracking-camera-e4e50361>) in a separate session. That later unboxing is a different look at the hardware, not a replacement for this original app-and-remote demonstration.
