#### Manage your GoPro HERO10 Black over USB-C

GoPro Station is a desktop companion for the GoPro HERO10 Black, connected to your computer with a USB-C cable. It talks to the camera over its built-in USB network connection (no Wi-Fi pairing and nothing sent to the cloud.)

Features:

* Browse the camera's photos and videos with thumbnails, dates and sizes
* Download media to your computer (with faster Turbo transfer)
* View and change camera settings (resolution, frame rate, lens, stabilisation, lapse intervals and more)
* Remote shutter, load presets, and digital zoom
* Live preview of the camera feed over USB
* Rename the camera, sync its clock, and reboot it

Note: live preview has roughly two seconds of delay, which is a limit of the HERO10's USB webcam mode in the camera firmware. GoPro Station controls the camera exclusively through GoPro's publicly documented Open GoPro API (<https://gopro.github.io/OpenGoPro/>). No GoPro source code is included. This is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by GoPro, Inc. "GoPro" and "HERO" are trademarks of GoPro, Inc., used only to describe camera compatibility.
