    Does anyone know how to turn the Epic on/off remotely?

    I can not use a solenoid on the front because:
    a. the lens is in the way.
    b. front port is in the way

    I can not use a solenoid on the side because:
    a. there is no space in 3D side-by-side configuration
    b. there is not enough room in the underwater housing

    We're evaluating some possible alternate solutions.

    Me five. For me it is a matter of turning on the left camera in a 3D side-by-side configuration.
