Inertial sensors are incorporated into the structure of a motion picture or video camera, to detect its movement along three orthogonal axes, as well as angular rotation about the three axes. Linear and angular acceleration detected by the sensors is transmitted from their location on the camera to a remote site by means of wireless communication. A time code is coupled with the data from the sensors, so that the instantaneous position of the camera can be determined for any point in time during the recording of live action. At the remote site, the sensor data is processed to determine absolute camera position, and provided to an image generating system, to thereby facilitate real-time generation of images that are consistent with the scene being recorded. |
