Abstract

A multi-camera synchronization method, device and system, and storage medium, wherein the method includes searching for a wireless signal from a master camera. Identification information carried in the wireless signal is analyzed, and the identification information is used to establish a wireless connection with the master camera. The wireless connection is used to receive an operation instruction from the master camera. The operation instruction is executed to maintain synchronization with a state with the master camera.

Claims (49)

1 . A multi-camera synchronization method comprising:

searching for a wireless signal of a master camera;

analyzing identification information carried in the wireless signal found in the search;

using said identification information to establish a wireless connection with the master camera;

using said wireless connection to receive an operation instruction of the master camera; and

executing said operation instruction to maintain synchronization with a state of said master camera.

2 . The multi-camera synchronization method of claim 1 , wherein said analyzing identification information carried in the wireless signal found in said search comprises:

analyzing an optional field in a beacon frame of the wireless signal to obtain said identification information.

3 . The multi-camera synchronization method of claim 1 , wherein said searching for a wireless signal of a master camera further comprises:

recognizing the wireless signal found in said search according to a device identification carried by the wireless signal to determine whether the device that sent the wireless signal is the master camera.

4 . The multi-camera synchronization method of claim 1 , wherein said identification information is a password for accessing a WIFI network of the master camera; and

said using said identification information to establish a wireless connection with said master camera comprises:

using said password to access the WIFI of the master camera to establish the wireless connection with the master camera.

5 . The multi-camera synchronization method of claim 1 , wherein the master camera accesses a preset hotspot in advance of the searching;

said identification information is a name and access password of said preset hotspot; and

said using said identification information to establish a wireless connection with the master camera comprises:

using said access password to access said preset hotspot to establish said wireless connection with the master camera.

6 . The multi-camera synchronization method of claim 1 , wherein said method further comprises, after said using said identification information to establish a wireless connection with the master camera:

using said wireless connection to send information of a device for the master camera to send said operation instruction.

7 . The multi-camera synchronization method of claim 1 , wherein operations instructed by said operation instruction comprise taking a photo, taking a video, or changing a parameter.

8 . A multi-camera synchronization device, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory device storing instructions executable by the processor to:

search for a wireless signal of a master camera;

analyze identification information carried in the wireless signal found in the search;

use the identification information to establish a wireless connection with the master camera;

use the wireless connection to receive an operation instruction of the master camera; and

execute the operation instruction to maintain synchronization with a state of the master camera.

9 . The multi-camera synchronization device of claim 8 , wherein analyzing identification information comprises analyzing an optional field in a beacon frame of the wireless signal to obtain said identification information.

10 . The multi-camera synchronization device of claim 8 , wherein searching for a wireless signal comprises:

recognizing the wireless signal found in said search according to a device identification carried by the wireless signal to determine whether the device that sent the wireless signal is the master camera.

11 . The multi-camera synchronization device of claim 8 , wherein

said identification information is a password for accessing a WIFI network of the master camera; and

using the identification information comprises:

using said password to access the WIFI network of the master camera to establish said wireless connection with the master camera.

12 . The multi-camera synchronization device of claim 8 , wherein

the master camera accesses a preset hotspot in advance of the searching;

said identification information is a name and access password of said preset hotspot; and

using the identification information comprises:

using said access password to access said preset hotspot to establish said wireless connection with the master camera.

13 . The multi-camera synchronization device of claim 8 , wherein said device further comprises:

using said wireless connection to send the information of the device for the master camera to send said operation instruction.

14 . The multi-camera synchronization device of claim 8 , wherein operations instructed by said operation instruction comprise taking a photo, taking a video, or changing a parameter.

15 . A non-transitory computer readable storage medium on which computer instructions are stored, said instructions executable by at least one processor to:

search for a wireless signal of a master camera;

analyze identification information carried in the wireless signal found in said search;

use said identification information to establish a wireless connection with the master camera;

use said wireless connection to receive an operation instruction of the master camera; and

execute said operation instruction to maintain synchronization with a state of the master camera.
