[0064] figure 1 A first embodiment of a method of implementing the invention for synchronizing a digital photo camera P with an alternate image content shown on a physical display (LED display) 13 is shown. exist figure 1 In the embodiment, the master clock signal M is also transmitted to the digital photo camera P via the line 50. The remote controller 51 is used to generate a camera actuation signal A, which is transmitted to the digital photo camera P via line 52 . The digital photo camera P comprises an input unit 53 having a first input 54 adapted for said input to receive an external master clock signal M via line 50 and a second input 55 adapted to receive a camera actuation signal via line 52 . In this embodiment, the processing unit for generating the shutter release signal is integrated in the digital photo camera P.

[0065] Alternatively, the digital photo cameras P may be synchronized via infrared LEDs 16 embedded in the billboard 12 and / or dedicated infrared L...

Abstract

The present invention concerns a method and device for synchronizing a digital photography camera with alternative image content shown on a physical display, comprising: generating at least two different sets of image data, each set of image data comprising a sequence of individual images; generating a master-clock signal (M); displaying the images of said at least two sets of image data in a time-sliced multiplexed manner on said physical display triggered by said master-clock signal, generating a camera-synchronization signal (C) on the basis of said master-clock signal (M), generating a camera-actuation signal (A) for capturing at least one image with said digital photography camera; generating at least one shutter release signal (S) for said digital photography camera on the basis of said camera-synchronization signal (C) and said camera-actuation signal (A); and transmitting said at least one shutter release signal (S) to a shutter control unit of said digital photography camera.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for synchronizing a digital photo camera with alternate image content shown on a physical display. Background technique [0002] Active displays, such as light emitting diode (LED) displays, are widely used as billboards or signboards to convey information or advertisements to viewers. Typically, such displays are used for sporting events or entertainment. Accordingly, such displays are often present in television broadcasts (TV) or video streams for a variety of different viewers, typically viewers in different countries with different native languages ​​or different cultural backgrounds. In order to target the information / advertising displayed on these displays to a specific subset of these viewers, methods have been developed to vary the display content among viewers viewing the display via television broadcast or video streaming. [0003] There have been proposals to insert advertisements as...
