Robotic control systems and methods may include providing an end effector tool of a robotic device configured to perform a task on a work surface within a worksite coordinate frame. Unintended movement over time of the end effector tool with respect to the work surface and with respect to the worksite coordinate frame may be determined based on image data indicative of the work surface, first location data indicative of a first location of the end effector tool with respect to the worksite coordinate frame, and second location data indicative of a second location of the end effector tool with respect to the work surface. One or more control signals for the robotic device may be adjusted in order to counteract the unintended movements of the end effector tool with respect to the work surface and worksite coordinate frame.

A computing device is described that outputs, for display at a display device, a graphical user interface including a graphical zoom indicator associated with a zoom operation of a camera. The graphical zoom indicator includes an inner fixed circle, an outer fixed circle, and an adjustable circle. The computing device receives an indication of an input detected at an input device, and based at least in part on the indication of the input, the computing device determines an adjustment to a zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera. Based at least in part on the adjustment to the zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera, the computing device updates the graphical user interface to modify a size of the adjustable circle based at least in part on the adjustment to the zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera.
