It is composed of 13 individual camera modules (112-1 ~ 112-13) built-in, and 13 camera modules (112-1 ~ 112-13) draw a fan of 120 degrees toward the subject (50) and are fixed at every 10 degree position. It is firmly fixed at the correct position at an angle.

The camera controller 122 may be connected to each of the individual camera modules 112-1 to 112-13 via a USB method to simultaneously control each individual camera module 112-1 to 112-13. That is, the camera controller 122 is provided with a function to simultaneously or sequentially control at least 13 camera modules 112-1 to 112-13, so that all the camera modules 112-1 to 112-13 are subject 50 ) Can be taken at the same time (1/100 second to 1/1000 second) or sequentially set at a settable time interval (for example, 0.1 second to 1.0 second).

In addition, the camera controller 122 is equipped with software to automatically adjust the calibration so that all camera modules 112-1 to 112-13 accurately focus the subject in the product installation state, and the camera modules 112-1 to 112- 13) The auto focus, manual focus, exposure, and white balance adjustment functions are implemented, and the LED 116 of each camera module 112-1 to 112-13 has an active sign or panoramic flashing function.

As described above, the multi-camera module 110 according to an embodiment of the present invention has the function of individually or simultaneously controlling 13 cameras, the function of automatically calibrating the angle and focus of 13 cameras, and the 13 cameras shot by 13 cameras. It is equipped with the function of creating a moving picture of 24 frames as a picture.

First, since the existing time-slice video was taken and edited separately, there was no great limitation on the transmission speed of transferring the pictures stored in the camera to the editing equipment, but the photo kiosk 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is 13 cameras per second Communication between 13 cameras and the control PC must be very fast and accurate because the user takes a self-portrait while viewing the high-resolution images of 24 to 30 frames in real time. To implement individual or simultaneous control functions for 13 cameras as described above, the photo kiosk 100 of the present invention manufactures a USB Host Controller with an independently developed driver and extends the USB port of the camera controller 122 to expand the 13 cameras. It enables communication with the camera modules 112-1 to 112-13. In addition, other wired or wireless communication methods may be used. For example, if wireless communication using 5G is used, processing may be faster and simpler.

And in an embodiment of the present invention, for accurate communication, a unique number is put in each camera module 112-1 to 112-13 so that positions can be automatically recognized, and 13 camera modules 112-1 to 112- 13) is configured to be photographed simultaneously or sequentially with a parallax. Simultaneously shooting produces a 3D portrait that rotates 120 degrees from the front repeatedly, and when taken sequentially, a 3D portrait that rotates 120 degrees winks or shakes (approximately 2 seconds). I can make it.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in order for the time-slice image to be rotated to be smoothly displayed, subjects photographed by multiple cameras at the same time must be accurately photographed at a constant angle. In other words, if any one of the cameras has a wrong angle, the image will bounce in the middle, making it uncomfortable to see.

However, no matter how elaborately assembled 13 camera modules (112-1 to 112-13), it is impossible to maintain the correct angle. Fortunately, even when assembled correctly, the camera angle is turned due to external factors such as moving the product or impact. Can lose. In order to solve this, the photo kiosk 100 of the present invention applies a function to automatically calibrate the angle and focus of 13 cameras. That is, it analyzes the 13 photographed images and captures a reference point that is an intermediate value, and applies it to all images. When this value is applied, the position of each image moves up, down, left, and right, and when placed side by side, the edges are not even, but the edges of the image are automatically cropped with the set specifications to complete the image with the same resolution. Once created, the reference point is stored as a calibration setting value. This process can be set to run automatically when the product is operated for the first time after installation by moving the product in administrator mode, when the product is turned on, or at regular intervals.

Referring to FIG. 5, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a method of generating a moving picture of 24 frames with 13 pictures taken by 13 camera modules 112-1 to 112-13 is shown in Table 1 below. It can be implemented by assigning a photo and a delay time to the line.

Frame number Camera number Delay time Frame number Camera number Delay time Frame # 1 CAM # 02 0.1 sec Frame # 13 CAM # 12 0.1 sec Frame # 2 CAM # 03 0.1 sec Frame # 14 CAM # 11 0.1 sec Frame # 3 CAM # 04 0.1 sec Frame # 15 CAM # 10 0.1 sec Frame # 4 CAM # 05 0.1 sec Frame # 16 CAM # 09 0.1 sec Frame # 5 CAM # 06 0.1 sec Frame # 17 CAM # 08 0.1 sec Frame # 6 CAM # 07 0.1 sec Frame # 18 CAM # 07 0.1 sec Frame # 7 CAM # 08 0.1 sec Frame # 19 CAM # 06 0.1 sec Frame # 8 CAM # 09 0.1 sec Frame # 20 CAM # 05 0.1 sec Frame # 9 CAM # 10 0.1 sec Frame # 21 CAM # 04 0.1 sec Frame # 10 CAM # 11 0.1 sec Frame # 22 CAM # 03 0.1 sec Frame # 11 CAM # 12 0.1 sec Frame # 23 CAM # 02 0.1 sec Frame # 12 CAM # 13 0.25 sec Frame # 24 CAM # 01 0.25 sec

Normally, 10 or more photos are required per second to create a smooth video. If you make a video with 13 photos, the playing time becomes too short, and such a short video is difficult to watch with a media player. It may be possible to develop and distribute a suitable viewer application, but downloading and installing the application to view this short video is troublesome.
