Abstract
A synchronization control device includes a detection unit configured to detect at least one of a position and an orientation of the device in a three-dimensional space. The synchronization control device includes one or more image pickup elements, and a control unit configured to control such that a phase of an image capturing timing of the one or more image pickup elements is synchronized with a phase of a detection timing of the detection unit, and a cycle length of the image capturing timing is equal to a cycle length of the detection timing or an integral multiple of the cycle length of the detection tuning.

A device comprising:
- one or more image pickup elements;
- a detection unit configured to detect at least one of a position and an orientation of the device in a three-dimensional space;
- and
- a control unit,
- wherein the control unit is configured to perform such control that a phase of an image capturing timing of the one or more image pickup elements is synchronized with a phase of a detection timing of the detection unit, and a cycle length of the image capturing timing is equal to a cycle length of the detection timing or an integral multiple of the cycle length of the detection timing.
A device comprising:
- one or more display elements,
- a detection unit configured to detect at least one of a motion, a position, and an orientation of the device in a three-dimensional space;
- and
- a control unit,
- wherein the control unit is configured to perform such control that a phase of a detection timing of the detection unit is synchronized with a phase of a display timing of the one or more display elements, and a cycle length of the detection timing is equal to a cycle length of the display timing or an integer division of the cycle length of the display timing.
A device comprising:
- one or more image pickup elements;
- one or more display elements;
- and
- a control unit,
- wherein the control unit is configured to perform such control that a phase of an image capturing timing of the one or more image pickup elements is synchronized with a phase or a reverse phase of a display timing of the one or more display elements, and a cycle length of the image capturing timing is equal to a cycle length of the display timing or an integral multiple of the cycle length of the display timing.
A synchronization control method for a device including one or more image pickup elements, the synchronization control method comprising:
- detecting at least one of a position and an orientation of the device in a three-dimensional space;
- and
- controlling,
- wherein the controlling performs such control that a phase of an image capturing timing of the one or more image pickup elements is synchronized with a phase of a detection timing of the detecting, and a cycle length of the image capturing timing is equal to a cycle length of the detection timing or an integral multiple of the cycle length of the detection timing.
A synchronization control method for a device including one or more display elements, the synchronization control method comprising:
- detecting at least one of a motion, a position, and an orientation of the device in a three-dimensional space;
- and
- controlling,
- wherein the controlling performs such control that a phase of a detection timing of the detecting is synchronized with a phase of a display timing of the one or more display elements, and a cycle length of the detection timing is equal to a cycle length of the display timing or an integer division of the cycle length of the display timing.
