Provided is a triggering system for triggering a plurality of vehicle-mounted cameras for obtaining a set of images. The present invention further relates to a camera system including the same. The triggering system includes a central unit and a plurality of camera controllers that each control one or more cameras. The present invention proposes a combination of a de-centralized updating process to determine the respective triggering time instants for the cameras, and a local timer in each of the camera controllers that is repeatedly synchronized using GNSS time information. This allows better control of the position of the entrance pupils of the cameras at the time of recording images. This will in turn produce a set of images that enables the generation of a panoramic image having less parallax-related errors.

An image pickup apparatus of which the display start timing and the display quality are selectable. The image pickup apparatus has a switch which selectively switches display data to be displayed on a display device between the first display data output by the first output circuit, and the second display data output by the second output circuit, and display the first display data or the second display data on the display device, wherein the first display data is generated by the image data output by the image pickup device developed, and the second display data is generated by the image data transferred by a transfer circuit developed.

The present disclosure relates to a field of a shooting support device, and in particular to a selfie device. The selfie device includes a telescopic rod, a tripod handle configured to store the telescopic rod, an upper clamping portion, a lower clamping portion opposite to the upper clamping portion, a clamping arm connected with the upper clamping portion and the lower clamping portion, and a wireless remote. The clamping arm is rotably connected a top end of the telescopic rod. The wireless remote is detachably disposed between the upper clamping portion and the lower clamping portion. The wireless remote is detachably disposed between the upper clamping portion and the lower clamping portion to instead of disposing on the side of a handle. It reduces the radial size of the selfie device, greatly improve the cleanliness of selfie device and convenience for use and carry.

There is disclosed a method and device for operating an image database shared by a plurality of users. In an embodiment, each image captured by a user and stored in a shared image database is associating with the geographic coordinates of the location at which the image was captured. A search engine for the image database is configured to accept geographic coordinates as a search criterion for locating at least one captured image stored in the shared image database. The images having location coordinates within a predefined range of geographic coordinates is displayed to the user.
