A control method of a gimbal device comprising:
- in response to detecting that a trigger event instructing a gimbal of the gimbal device to enter a movement status occurs, determining that the gimbal enters the movement status, the trigger event including an event instructing the gimbal device to restart or an event instructing the gimbal device to exit a sleeping status;
- in response to the gimbal of the gimbal device entering the movement status, obtaining an attitude of a support member of the gimbal device, the gimbal being arranged at the support member;
- determining an expected photograph mode from a plurality of photograph modes according to the attitude of the support member, wherein the plurality of photograph modes comprise an up flashlight mode, a vertical photograph mode, a forward photograph mode, a reverse photograph mode, and a down flashlight mode;
- and
- controlling the gimbal to enter the expected photograph mode.
A gimbal device comprising:
- a support member;
- a gimbal arranged at the support member and configured to carry an imaging device;
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the gimbal device to at least:
- in response to detecting that a trigger event instructing the gimbal to enter a movement status occurs, determine that the gimbal enters the movement status, the trigger event including an event instructing the gimbal device to restart or an event instructing the gimbal device to exit a sleeping status;
- in response to the gimbal entering the movement status, obtain an attitude of the support member;
- determine an expected photograph mode from a plurality of photograph modes according to the attitude of the support member, wherein the plurality of photograph modes comprise an up flashlight mode, a vertical photograph mode, a forward photograph mode, a reverse photograph mode, and a down flashlight mode;
- and
- control the gimbal to enter the expected photograph mode.
A gimbal device comprising:
- a support member;
- a gimbal arranged at the support member and configured to carry an imaging device;
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory including computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the gimbal device to at least:
- in response to detecting that a trigger event instructing the gimbal to enter a movement status occurs, determine that the gimbal enters the movement status, the trigger event including at least one of an event instructing the gimbal device to turn on, an event instructing the gimbal device to restart, or an event instructing the gimbal device to exit a sleeping status;
- in response to the gimbal entering the movement status, obtain an attitude of the support member of the gimbal device, the gimbal being arranged at the support member;
- determine whether an expected photograph mode is an up flashlight mode or a vertical photograph mode according to the attitude of the support member;
- and
- control the gimbal to enter the expected photograph mode.
