Camera system and method for aligning images and presenting a series of aligned images
A camera system includes a processor, a camera coupled to the processor, a display coupled to the processor, and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to store a first image in the memory, modify the first image to generate a modified first image, the modified first image corresponding to the first image at a reduced opacity, control the camera to capture a real-time preview, overlay the modified first image on the real-time preview to generate a combined preview, output the combined preview to the display, capture a second image using the camera, and store the second image in the memory.
1. A display system for presenting a series of aligned images, the display system comprising:
a processor;
a display coupled to the processor;
a user interface device for sending a signal to the processor; and
a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
store a plurality of images in the memory;
assign values to each of the images according to an order of the images from among the plurality of images in the memory, such that a first value corresponds to a first image and a second value corresponds to a second image, the first image being ordered before the second image;
correlate the values to portions of a transport controller;
display the first image and the transport controller on the display;
receive an input from the user interface device corresponding to a portion of the transport controller corresponding to the second value; and
display the second image according to the input.
2. The display system of claim 1 , wherein the transport controller comprises a virtual button that is slidable along a virtual bar on the display.
3. The display system of claim 1 , wherein the user interface device comprises a mouse, a touch screen integrated with the display, a touchscreen external to the display, a track ball, or a stylus.
4. The display system of claim 1 , wherein the transport controller is a virtual button that is slidable along a circular path.
5. The display system of claim 4 , wherein one revolution of the transport controller displays each of the images of the plurality of images.
6. The display system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of images are each displayed at their native resolutions.
