Method, computer program, and devices for image acquisition

An image acquisition method comprising:

• acquiring an image by a first image sensor;
• registering a series of gaze positions at a scene associated with the image acquired by the first image sensor;
• providing information to the first image sensor about a position on the first image sensor, a size of a sensor area associated with the position on the first image sensor and a frame rate for image acquisition within said area;
• receiving image data from the first image sensor wherein the image data at least comprises image data with the size, the position on the first image sensor, and the frame rate for image acquisition within said area;
• and
• storing an adapted image based on the received image data, where the scene represents a larger part of an image registered by the first image sensor than intended to be acquired as the adapted image,
• wherein the size of the sensor area associated with the position on the first image sensor is arranged to increase with a number of periodically received positions being within a distance from each other above a first threshold and below a second threshold, wherein the increased sensor area grows in a direction of movement of positions of the periodically received positions.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising a computer program comprising instructions which, when executed on a processor of an image acquisition device, causes the image acquisition device to perform an image acquisition method comprising:

• acquiring an image by a first image sensor;
• registering a series of gaze positions at a scene associated with the image acquired by the first image sensor;
• providing information to the first image sensor about a position on the first image sensor, a size of a sensor area associated with the position on the first image sensor and a frame rate for image acquisition within said area;
• receiving image data from the first image sensor wherein the image data at least comprises image data with the size, the position on the first image sensor, and the frame rate for image acquisition within said area;
• and
• storing an adapted image based on the received image data, where the scene represents a larger part of an image registered by the first image sensor than intended to be acquired as the adapted image,
• wherein the size of the sensor area associated with the position on the first image sensor is arranged to increase with a number of periodically received positions being within a distance from each other above a first threshold and below a second threshold, wherein the increased sensor area grows in a direction of movement of positions of the periodically received positions.
