I've wanted one or other rover to use the IDD turret and wrist actuation to get the best self portrait possible. A really REALLY bad simulation using the model that is in MMB, and a 33 deg FOV.

Maybe a self portrait would show how much daylight is between the rover and the ground?
Could the IDD look between Spirit's legs like the arm camera on Phoenix did? |

If we really believe we need to take that MI shot, we will work on getting the IDD working again.
