Abstract
Embodiments described herein may allow for dynamic image capture based on biometric data. An example device may include an image-capture device and a control system configured to: cause the image-capture device to capture video data; receive biometric data, which may be generated synchronously with the video data, from one or more sensors; while the image-capture device is capturing video data, control at least one image-capture setting of the image capture device based, at least in part, on the biometric data. The at least one image-capture setting affects the captured video data.
Claims23
A computing device, comprising:
- an image-capture device;
- and
- a control system configured to:
- cause the image-capture device to capture video data;
- receive biometric data from one or more sensors, wherein the biometric data is generated synchronously with the video data, and wherein the biometric data comprises heart rate data;
- determine that a first mode of travel is associated with the computing device;
- and
- while the image-capture device is capturing the video data, control at least one image-capture setting of the image capture device based, at least in part, on both (a) the association of the first mode of travel with the computing device and (b) the biometric data, wherein the at least one image-capture setting is controlled so as to increase the rate of image frame capture of the video data based, at least in part, on receiving biometric data indicative of a higher than normal heart rate.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device, video data from an image-capture device;
- receiving, by the computing device, biometric data from one or more sensors, wherein the biometric data is generated synchronously with the video data, and wherein the biometric data comprises heart rate data;
- determine that a first mode of travel is associated with the computing device;
- and
- while the image-capture device is capturing the video data, controlling at least one image-capture setting of the image capture device based, at least in part, on both (a) the association of the first mode of travel with the computing device and (b) the biometric data, wherein the at least one image-capture setting is controlled so as to increase the rate of image frame capture of the video data based, at least in part, on receiving biometric data indicative of a higher than normal heart rate.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein instructions executable by a processor to cause a computing device to perform functions comprising:
- receiving video data from an image-capture device;
- receiving biometric data from one or more sensors, wherein the biometric data is generated synchronously with the video data, and wherein the biometric data comprises heart rate data;
- determining that a first mode of travel is associated with the computing device;
- and
- while the image-capture device is capturing the video data, controlling at least one image-capture setting of the image capture device based, at least in part, on both (a) the association of the first mode of travel with the computing device and (b) the biometric data, wherein the at least one image-capture setting is controlled so as to increase the rate of image frame capture of the video data based, at least in part, on receiving biometric data indicative of a higher than normal heart rate.
