Capturing Control Apparatus Coordinate System Rotation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing capturing apparatuses face issues in accurately changing the shooting direction according to user intent, especially when the apparatus orientation changes from erect to inverted, leading to mismatches between the orientation of the captured image and the coordinate system.
Innovation Solution
The system integrates a capturing apparatus and client communication mechanism that allows for synchronized changes in the image orientation and coordinate system, using instructions to rotate the captured image and coordinate system by specific angles, ensuring alignment with user intent through a network connection, employing a control unit to manage these changes.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the capturing apparatus changes from erect orientation to inverted orientation, then the shooting direction can be adjusted to different positions, but the vertical and horizontal orientations of the captured image and coordinate system become reversed, causing mismatch between user intent and actual operation
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts the coordinate system orientation based on the detected mounting orientation of the capturing apparatus. When the apparatus is mounted in inverted or rotated positions, the control unit automatically transforms the coordinate system to maintain consistency between control instructions and actual shooting direction, ensuring accurate operation regardless of mounting position.
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates mounting orientation detection that provides feedback to the control unit. This feedback mechanism enables the system to automatically identify the apparatus orientation and adjust the coordinate system accordingly, preventing mismatch between control instructions and actual shooting direction changes.
2Adaptability or versatility
If separate interfaces are used for changing image orientation and coordinate system orientation, then each can be controlled independently, but mismatches occur when one instruction is processed before the other
Solution Approach 1:
The system merges the image orientation control and coordinate system orientation control into a unified processing mechanism. When an orientation change instruction is received, the control unit simultaneously updates both the coordinate system and the image display orientation, ensuring they remain synchronized and eliminating mismatches that occur with separate processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary detection of the mounting orientation and pre-configures the coordinate system transformation parameters before processing control instructions. This preliminary action ensures that when orientation change instructions are received, both the coordinate system and image orientation are already prepared to change together, maintaining synchronization.

AI summary
It is an object to allow a shooting direction to be changed in a direction intended by a user. An apparatus includes: an acceptance unit configured to accept one of a first instruction to rotate a captured image by a predetermined angle and a second instruction to rotate a coordinate system by the predetermined angle, and to refuse the other of the first and second instructions; a processing unit configured to perform a first processing to rotate the captured image by the predetermined angle and to perform a second processing to rotate the coordinate system stored in a storage unit by the predetermined angle, in response to accepting the one of the first and second instructions; and a control unit configured to perform control of changing the shooting direction of a capturing unit.
