Title:
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MULTIPLE CAMERA ALIGNMENT AND USE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/139128
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A camera rig system is provided for 3D stereo photography. The system includes a first camera mount configured to removably hold a first camera module having a first optical axis being oriented horizontally. The system also includes a second camera mount configured to removably hold a second camera module having a second optical axis being oriented vertically and orthogonal to the first optical axis. The system further includes a mirror assembly configured to receive an incoming light and transmit a first portion of the incoming light to the first camera module and reflect a second portion of the incoming light to the second camera module. The mirror assembly has a first rotational axis, and the mirror assembly independently controls a rotational movement around the rotating axis and a linear movement along at least one of the first optical axis and the second optical axis.
