Abstract
An imaging control apparatus includes: a flicker detecting section configured to detect a flicker component of a light source, the flicker component being included in an image; and a controlling section configured to control timing of imaging according to a detection result by the flicker detecting section, in which the controlling section controls the timing of the imaging according to timing of a peak or a bottom of the flicker component detected.
Claims18
An imaging control apparatus comprising:
- a flicker detecting section configured to detect a flicker component of a light source, the flicker component being included in an image;
- and
- a controlling section configured to control timing of imaging according to a detection result by the flicker detecting section,
- wherein the controlling section controls the timing of the imaging according to timing of a peak or a bottom of the flicker component detected.
An imaging control apparatus comprising:
- a flicker detecting section configured to detect a flicker component of a light source, the flicker component being included in an image,
- wherein the flicker detecting section outputs, according to exposure time of a sensor section at a time of the detection, information in which a phase of the flicker component detected is inverted.
An imaging control apparatus comprising:
- a controlling section configured to control first exposure time of a first sensor section at a time of detection of a flicker component and second exposure time of a second sensor section at a time of imaging,
- wherein the controlling section adjusts at least one of the first exposure time or the second exposure time so as to include, within each of the first exposure time and the second exposure time, an odd number or an even number of the flicker components each corresponding to one cycle and so as not to be an integer multiple of a cycle of the flicker component.
An imaging control method comprising:
- detecting, by a flicker detecting section, a flicker component of a light source, the flicker component being included in an image;
- and
- controlling, by a controlling section, timing of imaging according to a detection result of the flicker component,
- wherein the controlling section controls the timing of the imaging according to timing of a peak or a bottom of the flicker component detected.
An imaging control method comprising:
- detecting, by a flicker detecting section, a flicker component of a light source, the flicker component being included in an image, and outputting, according to exposure time of a sensor section at a time of the detection, information in which a phase of the flicker component detected is inverted.
An imaging control method comprising:
- controlling, by a controlling section, first exposure time of a first sensor section at a time of detection of a flicker component and second exposure time of a second sensor section at a time of imaging;
- and
- adjusting, by the controlling section, at least one of the first exposure time or the second exposure time so as to include, within each of the first exposure time and the second exposure time, an odd number or an even number of the flicker components each corresponding to one cycle and so as not to be an integer multiple of a cycle of the flicker component.
