Abstract: A method of operating an imaging apparatus includes generating combined sensor settings for a plurality of image sensors by an image signal processor (ISP), and transmitting the combined sensor settings from the ISP in a single operation. The ISP includes a single software flow control for the plurality of image sensors. The method significantly optimizes CPU usage and reduces power consumption in multi-sensor camera systems. By consolidating multiple software and data control flows into a single, unified process, the system achieves a substantial reduction in computational overhead.

Abstract: A method for a camera system includes generating, by a processor, a set of control parameters for an image sensor to capture a first image frame. The set of control parameters correspond to at least one capture setting. The method further includes determining, by the processor, whether a change in the at least one capture setting has occurred since capturing the first image frame. A first subsequent image frame is captured using the set of control parameters for the first image frame when no change in the at least one capture setting has occurred.

Abstract: An image capturing device comprising an image sensor and a processing circuit. The processing circuit is configured to perform following steps: (a) outputting first sensing frames by the image sensor in a first mode, wherein a first frame time duration is determined between adjacent ones of the first sensing frames; (b) switching from the first mode to a second mode in a transition time interval; (c) setting the transition time interval such that a difference between the transition time interval and the first frame duration is smaller than a predetermined value; and (d) outputting second sensing frames by the image sensor in the second mode.
