Abstract
A method of capturing an image of a scene. A current location of a plurality of objects in a frame of a video capturing the scene having one or more events of interest, is determined. For at least one of the events of interest, a time and a location for each of the plurality of objects associated with the event of interest is predicted based on the current location of the plurality of objects. A frame subset score is determined for each of a plurality of frame subsets in the frame, each of the plurality of frame subsets including one or more of the plurality of objects based on the predicted time and the predicted location for the event of interest. One of the determined plurality of frame subsets is selected based on the determined frame subset score. An image of the event of interest is captured using a camera, based on a camera orientation setting for the selected frame subset, where the captured image comprises the selected frame subset.
