Control device, photographing device, photographing system, and movable object

A photographing device comprising:

• a lens assembly including one or more lenses;
• and
• a control device including:
• a memory storing a program;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the program to:
• recognize an object from a first image photographed by the photographing device via the lens assembly, the object being in a reference region in a photographing range of the photographing device;
• predict a reference position of the reference region in a second image based on driving information for changing a position or an orientation of the photographing device, the second image being to be photographed after the first image is photographed;
• and
• in response to the reference position being included in the first image but not on the object, control an exposure of the photographing device for photographing the second image based on image data of an image region in the first image corresponding to the reference position.

A movable object comprising:

• a propulsion system;
• and
• a photographing system including:
• a photographing device including:
• a lens assembly including one or more lenses;
• and
• a control device including:
• a memory storing a program;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the program to:
• recognize an object from a first image photographed by the photographing device via the lens assembly, the object being in a reference region in a photographing range of the photographing device;
• predict a reference position of the reference region in a second image based on driving information for changing a position or an orientation of the photographing device, the second image being to be photographed after the first image is photographed;
• and
• in response to the reference position being included in the first image but not on the object, control an exposure of the photographing device for photographing the second image based
• on image data of an image region in the first image corresponding to the reference position;
• and
• a support mechanism supporting the photographing device and configured to change an orientation of the photographing device.
