Abstract:
The presently disclosed subject matter includes a camera system for aerial photography applications which can be mounted on an aircraft and be operated for obtaining images of a surveyed area. The proposed camera system comprises a camera control unit operatively connected to a camera supported by a pivotal supporting device such as a gimbal assembly. The camera is continuously moved along a scanning line without stopping and is operated to capture images in a certain frame rate, this is carried out by measuring as well as regulating the angular velocity of the camera to adapt the pictured and the non-pictures zones over the scanning line.

Claim (Index 12):
A method of operating a camera system for aerial photography, the camera system comprising a camera control unit operatively connected to a supporting device and camera; the supporting device is connected to the camera and is configured to mechanically support the camera and to move the camera in one or more spinning axes in order to move the camera in a desired direction; the method comprising:\n using the camera control unit for:\n controlling the supporting device to move the camera along a scanning line; \n controlling the camera to capture images in a certain frame rate as the camera is being moved along the scanning line; \n controlling the supporting device to adapt to a velocity at which the camera is being moved according to a current operational mode of the camera; \n wherein, in exposure mode, the velocity is adapted to be within a first range selected to reduce camera motion blur; and \n wherein, in a non-exposure mode, the velocity is adapted to be within a second range which is different than the first range.
