   - Integrates with a **TracerProvider** to enable distributed tracing for detailed monitoring of the frame transmission process. Each frame transmission is traced to measure latency and ensure reliability.  
 - **Connection:** Establishes a persistent TCP connection to the Motion Detection service and ensures real-time frame transmission even during intermittent connectivity issues.
