SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FAST VIDEO CAPTURE AND SENSOR ADJUSTMENT
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at an input mechanism of a wearable camera device, a user input to initiate capture of first video data;
capturing a first plurality of frames using camera settings based on a set of auto bracketing settings in response to the user input, each frame of the first plurality of frames having associated camera settings which are different for each frame of the first plurality of frames, wherein the associated camera settings are determined from the set of auto bracketing settings;
processing, in response to the user input, a set of sensor data to determine a set of camera setting values for an environment of the wearable camera device;
selecting the camera settings for the wearable camera device using the set of camera setting values after the first plurality of frames are captured; and
capturing a second plurality of frames with the camera settings selected using the set of camera setting values.

Abstract
Systems, methods, devices, media, and instructions are described for fast video sensor adjustment. In one embodiment, a portable electronic device with image capturing capabilities automatically captures a first plurality of frames upon selection of an input button while sensors of the device are determining camera settings for the environment. The first plurality of frames are captured using different automatic bracketing settings. Once the camera settings are determined, a second plurality of images are captured using the determined camera settings. One or more of the first plurality of images are used along with the second plurality of images for a video file. The one or more images may be selected based on a match between certain of the automatic bracketing settings and the final camera settings.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed by a wearable camera device, cause the wearable camera device to perform operations comprising:
-
detecting a user engagement with an input mechanism forming part of a portable electronic device having an on-board camera configured to capture and process image data according to a plurality of image capture parameters, the user engagement comprising disposal of the input mechanism from a disengaged condition to an engaged condition; processing, in response to the user input, a set of sensor data to determine a set of camera setting values for an environment of the wearable camera device; capturing a first plurality of frames using camera settings based on a set of auto bracketing settings in response to the user input, each frame of the first plurality of frames having associated camera settings which are different for each frame of the first plurality of frames, wherein the associated camera settings are determined from the set of auto bracketing settings; selecting the camera settings for the wearable camera device using the set of camera setting values after the first plurality of frames are captured; capturing a second plurality of frames with the camera settings selected using the camera settings; selecting at least a first frame of the first plurality of frames for inclusion with the first video data based at least in part on the camera settings for the first frame; and storing the first video data as a data file comprising the first frame and the second plurality of frames. - View Dependent Claims (20)
