Abstract
The present disclosure provides techniques for capturing a series of images. In particular, the present disclosure provides techniques for capturing a series of images using a camera integrated with a computing device, such as a cellular phone. A camera may capture a series of images and store the images in a buffer until all images in the series are captured. The images may be transferred to a storage medium after all images in the series are captured. The images may further be processed before being transferred to the storage medium.
