METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR WIRELESS STEREO VIDEO STREAMING

摘要

A wireless camera (102) is configured to removeably connect to a complementary camera (101) and includes machine-readable software instructions configured to communicate with the complementary camera to determine a designated role (e.g., "master" or "slave"). The software instructions are capable of performing, when the designated role is "master," the steps of: capturing a first video frame; instructing the complementary camera (101) to capture a second video frame; receiving the second video frame from the complementary camera (101); combining the first frame and the second frame to create a combined frame associated with a stereoscopic image, and wirelessly transmitting the combined frame to a mobile device (140). When the designated role is "slave," the wireless camera (102) is capable of performing the steps of: capturing a first video frame and sending the first video frame to the complementary camera ( 101).
