Motion capture using synchronized and aligned devices
A motion capture system comprising: a master clock configured to repeatedly generate and output, at a frame rate, a primary clock signal that conveys when a video frame starts; a first camera configured to capture light within a first set of wavelengths and operably coupled to receive the master clock signal and initiate an image capture sequence on a frame-by-frame basis in fixed phase relationship with the primary clock signal to generate a first set of images at the frame rate from light captured within the first set of wavelengths; a synchronization module operably coupled to receive the master clock signal from the master clock and configured to generate a synchronization signal offset in time from and in a fixed relationship with the primary clock signal; and a second camera configured to capture light within a second set of wavelengths, different than the first set of wavelengths, and operably coupled to receive the synchronization signal and initiate an image capture sequence on the frame-by-frame basis in a fixed phase relationship with the synchronization signal to generate a second set of images at the frame rate from light captured within the second set of wavelengths; wherein the amount of time the synchronization signal is offset from the master clock signal aligns, within each frame, the image capture sequence of the second camera with the image capture sequence of the first camera.
Phase and exposure synchronization control of image acquisition devices
Embodiments of the present invention provide a control method for an image acquisition device, a control device therefor, and a storage medium, relate to the field of the image acquisition device, and aim to realize synchronization of an operation timing signal of the image acquisition device and an external trigger signal. The method comprises: receiving image data acquired by the image acquisition device; analyzing the image data, obtaining an image timing according to an analysis result, and determining a frame synchronization signal of the image data output by the image acquisition device according to the image timing; determining a phase offset between the frame synchronization signal and a preset trigger signal; and adjusting a phase of a control signal based on the phase offset, wherein the control signal is configured for adjusting an operation timing of the image acquisition device.
Duality App
An innovative mobile application designed to improve how a user experiences real-time streaming and live chat over their smartphone or mobile device. The mobile application combines live streaming, augmented reality, and real-time interaction. The mobile application is comprised of a dual-camera interface allowing simultaneous streaming from a front camera and a rear camera of a mobile device; an augmented reality feature that detects and overlays digital information on real-world objects observed through a camera of a mobile device; and a live chat feature enabling a real-time interaction during a live video streaming session. Combining dual-camera streaming with live chat offers a powerful tool for content creators, influencers, and professionals who want to engage with their audience in a more interactive and personal way. Whether it's for virtual events, tutorials, or social interaction, the mobile application enhances a user's experience by providing multiple views and real-time communication.
