Once you take control of Alph in the main story of Pikmin 3 Deluxe, you will eventually find a KopPad lying on the ground. The game will prompt you to build a bridge with your 10 Red Pikmin so it literally cannot be missed.

Now that you have the KopPad, simply press the Minus button to open it up, and then press the right or left triggers to scroll over to the camera icon –press A to activate it.
