Patent ID: 11477392

Abstract:
This disclosure pertains to techniques for dynamically adapting image capturing techniques, e.g., based on shutter activation frequency, to improve camera responsiveness. One such technique is a method, comprising: receiving a first capture request; in response to receiving the first capture request, using a first capturing technique to capture a first set of images based on an image capture sequence, the image capture sequence comprising one or more images; generating a first image based on the captured first set of images; receiving a second capture request within a first time window from the first capture request, wherein a duration of the first time window is based, at least in part, on a length of time needed to capture the one or more images of the image capture sequence using the first capturing technique; in response to the received second capture request, using a second capturing technique to capture a second set of images, wherein the second capturing technique is different from the first capturing technique; and generating a second image based on the captured second set of images.
