Abstract
Technologies for camera and light source synchronization include an imaging device to detect a current location of an object in a captured image generated by the imaging device. The imaging device predicts a next location of the object in a next captured image, generated by the imaging device, based on the current location of the object. The imaging device determines an illumination interval defining a period of time during which a camera of the imaging device is to expose a set of sensor lines during the capturing of the next captured image and activates a light source of the imaging device to illuminate the object during the determined illumination interval. The set of sensor lines corresponds with the predicted next location of the object.

26. An imaging device for camera and light source synchronization, the imaging device comprising:
-
an image processing module to detect a current location of an object in a captured image generated by the imaging device; a location prediction module to predict a next location of the object in a next captured image, generated by the imaging device, based on the current location of the object; and an illumination module to (i) determine an illumination interval defining a period of time during which a camera of the imaging device is to expose a set of sensor lines during the capture of the next captured image, wherein the set of sensor lines corresponds with the predicted next location of the object and (ii) activate a light source of the imaging device to illuminate the object throughout the determined illumination interval. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36)

37. One or more machine-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by an imaging device, cause the imaging device to:
-
detect a current location of an object in a captured image generated by the imaging device; predict a next location of the object in a next captured image, generated by the imaging device, based on the current location of the object; determine an illumination interval defining a period of time during which a camera of the imaging device is to expose a set of sensor lines during the capturing of the next captured image, the set of sensor lines corresponding with the predicted next location of the object; and activate a light source of the imaging device to illuminate the object during the determined illumination interval. - View Dependent Claims (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46)
