 However, we encountered an issue with the ESP32's built-in LED, as its flashing caused unwanted reflections on the glass of the water meter, making the AI-based readout challenging. To address this, we decided to cover the LED with a piece of tape, which provided better control over reflections and improved the accuracy of the readings.  However, we encountered an issue with the ESP32's built-in LED, as its flashing caused unwanted reflections on the glass of the water meter, making the AI-based readout challenging.

 To adjust the positions of the ROIs within the reading, we used the options "Move Next" or "Move Previous." Finally, we saved all our changes with "Save all to Config.ini."Since our water meter lacked analog information, we unchecked the next step. To adjust the positions of the ROIs within the reading, we used the options "Move Next" or "Move Previous."
